Singer Andy B. Franck previously stated about the new CD, "Together with our producers Sascha Paeth and Miro we created the most intense and diverse album in our history. Downburst shows a very different side of us and on the other hand listening to the album is like meeting with an old friend. All the songs have so much power and such a deep atmosphere I really never expected it could get that far. The songs are bigger and better than anything we have done before and we stretched our musical borders even more than we ever thought. Downburst is by far our heaviest but most beautiful album as well as it is the album where we discovered ourselves in a new way!"

Brainstorms new single, "Fire Walk With Me", recently entered the Hungarian chart at position No. 1.

Fire Walk with Me (cover artwork) was released on October 19 in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy and October 22 in the rest of the world via Metal Blade Records.

Brainstorm has been confirmed for the ProgPower UK festival in Bristol, UK on Saturday, March 29, 2008 and the Metalcamp festival on July 5, 2008 in Tolmin, Slovenia.

Metal Blade in June released the first-ever Brainstorm DVD, "Honey from the B's (Beasting around the Bush)". The box set was released in digipack format "with special metal effect." The disc entered the Hungarian Music DVD chart at position No. 18.

Brainstorm recently parted ways with longtime bass player Andreas Mailänder and is currently seeking a replacement.
