History

Forever Storm was formed at the end of 2006 by Miloš Miletić (guitar), Stefan Kovačević (guitar, vocals) and Vladimir Nestorović (bass guitar). [1] Before finding a drummer, the band recorded several demos using rhythm machine. [1] At the beginning of 2007, they were joined by Vuk Stefanović (drums). [1] During the same year the band competed on the 41st Gitarijada festival, [1] also performing on the Exit festival. [2] At the end of 2007, the band started recording their debut studio album. [1] In 2008, the band won the first place at the Crvenka competition of rock bands. [2] Their debut album, entitled Soul Revolution , was released at the end of 2009 through One Records, [1] featuring a cover designed by comic book artist Bane Kerac. Recording sessions for the album took place in Kragujevac between November 2008 and June 2009. The band collaborated closely with producer Ivan Ilić to shape the sonic direction of the record, while Dobrica Andrić was responsible for audio engineering and final mastering, ensuring high production quality and tonal consistency throughout the album. [3]

In 2010, keyboardist Nikola Marić, who participated in the recording of Soul Revolution, joined the band. [3] During the same year, the band performed on the Wacken Open Air W.E.T. stage. [4] Forever Storm participated in a live TV show called "Rat Bendova" on Bosnian international television, OBN, with their appearance on the show leading to a regional tour. In July 2012. the band entered and won a contest as part of Avala Rock Fest.

Once again, in 2012. the band returned to a familiar creative setting, recording in the same studio with the trusted production team. Ivan Ilić reprised his role as producer, while Dobrica Andrić handled both engineering and mastering, maintaining the continuity and technical integrity of the band’s sound.. During the recording of their second album, Nikola Maric left the band. [5] The album Tragedy , was released in December 2013 by EBM Records from Mexico City. [6]

Released in 2023, From Ashes to Eternity is the band’s most ambitious project to date — a powerful concept album that explores the tragedy and heroism of the Great War. Recorded over nearly seven years at Blacksmith Studio in Kragujevac, the album carries a deeply personal message: 'We wanted to repay our ancestors through music and lyrics, and make their feat immortal in this way.' This release leaves a lasting mark on the band's artistic journey, blending emotional depth with epic storytelling.
