THE GENTLE STORM, featuring the talents of Arjen Lucassen (AYREON, STAR ONE, GUILT MACHINE) & Anneke van Giersbergen (THE GATHERING, DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT), release their debut album The Diary' tomorrow in North America (March 24th), and to celebrate they are extremely pleased to reveal the stunning new video for "Shores Of India (Storm Version)" which you can check out right HERE.
The Diary is also now available to order in several different formats including 2CD Digipak and digital download.
The album concept is a tale of love, loss, and separation told through the story of two fictional seventeenth-century lovers. A Dutch sailor embarks on a two-year voyage, leaving his wife at home in Holland. The only way for the couple to communicate and keep their love alive during the long separation is through letters. These letters form the basis for the songs on the album.
