"For seven days we were tempest tossed." That's the opening line from "The Swiss Family Robinson," a tale much loved and frequently read as a mere child. The word “tempest” has always sounded so much more emotive than “storm or "gale force nine in Shannon and Cromerty." A tempest is a living, natural force, a pageant of the elements. Black skies, mountainous waves and howling wind!

Tempest's first album is out on January 27, and having heard it already, I can only say - watch out! More of that when the time comes. And in the meantime, it's nice to know that one of the best drummers Britain has produced is back in action. The storm warnings are going out over Europe!
