Stormblåst is the second studio album by Norwegian symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir. It was released on 25 January 1996 through Cacophonous Records, re-released in 2001 by Century Media, and completely re-recorded in 2005, released as Stormblåst MMV. It was Dimmu Borgir's last album sung entirely in the band's native Norwegian, as they would change to English afterwards. This is also the first album where Tjodalv switched to drums as opposed to guitar, the first where Shagrath is on vocals, though he took on the role of backing vocals, and this album was the bands last album with Silenoz on lead vocals, with him later switching more to a backing vocal role with the band. With every subsequent release, Shagrath has been the lead vocalist. It is also the first album where Shagrath is the lead guitarist of every song. It is also the last album where lyrics would be written by Aldrahn until 2003's Death Cult Armageddon, and the last album to feature Brynjard Tristan on bass.
