First gaining notoriety for incorporating the didgeridoo into their breakout track, "Love The Way You Hate Me," the band's last 6 singles "Love the Way You Hate Me," "Wish You Hell," "Become The Enemy," "Break Free," "Pure Evil," and "The Devil Inside" have all charted at US Active Rock Top 40.

The album debuted on the Top 5 Billboard Heatseekers Charts, Top 50 Billboard Emerging Artist Charts, and Top 100 Billboard Album Charts. The album was produced by LIKE A STORM's very own Chris Brooks, Matt Brooks, and Kent Brooks and is available for purchase and on all streaming devices. LIKE A STORM has toured the globe with some of the biggest names in rock ' including GODSMACK, ALTER BRIDGE, SLASH, OZZY OSBOURNE, SHINEDOWN, THREE DAYS GRACE, on top of headlining North America extensively. They have also been invited to perform at the world's biggest hard rock festivals including: Download (UK), Nova Rock (Europe)and Rock on the Range (U.S.). Their reputation for touring the world relentlessly led Myles Kennedy of Alter Bridge/Slash to once label them, "The hardest-working band in the business."

ABOUT THROUGH FIRE
The Omaha, NE quartet-Justin McCain [lead guitar, songwriter], Grant Joshua Kendrick [lead vocals], Kyle LeBlanc [bass], and Grant Brooks [drums]-fuses hard-hitting riffs, electronic provocations, and contagious melodies. As a result, this impactful, immediate, and infectious fusion defies categorization and incites energy as boundless as the style itself. Additionally, the approach transformed the quartet into a phenomenon with chart-topping radio successes and over 20 million Spotify streams and 48 million YouTube views in under two years.

They set the stage to take such action on their 2016 full-length debut, Breathe. Not only did the breakout single "Stronger" clock millions of streams and spend 26 weeks on Billboard's Rock Charts, it also spent five weeks at #1 on Octane's popular Big Uns Countdown. Proclaimed "Breakout Artist of the Year," Sirius Octane named "Stronger" among the Top 3 songs of the year, placing them in a league of their own next to none other than Metallica and Highly Suspect. On iTunes, "Stronger" quickly went to #1 and outsold the bulk of bands in the Hard Rock and Heavy Metal genres. The single soundtracked various mixed martial arts matches for NBC Sports and the Stanley Cup Finals. It also served as the theme for WWE's Backlash.
Their second single "Breathe" repeated this success, landing the band their first top 10 single at rock radio and then reaching #1 on Billboards Mainstream Rock Indicator Recurrent Chart.

Reclaiming the top spot, "Breathe" also ascended straight to #1 on Big Uns Countdown. As the band crisscrossed the country on tours with SEETHER, FOZZY, NONPOINT, SICK PUPPIES, BLACK STONE CHERRY and performed at festivals such as Chicago Open Air, Louder Than Life, Sonic Boom, and Rock Fest, among many others, they amassed a fervent fan base which helped them continue to sell an impressive amount of singles.

Now, the same fire fuels the band's 2019 second full-length for Sumerian Records.
