"Heading For A Storm," released in 1983, was the second album from the Dutch hard rock band Vandenberg, fronted by guitarist Adrian Vandenberg and vocalist Bert Heerink. It generally marked a step forward for the band in terms of songwriting and production compared to their debut.

Here's a brief overview:

  • More Refined Sound: The album showcased a more polished and mature sound for Vandenberg, leaning towards a blend of hard rock and AOR (Album-Oriented Rock) with a greater emphasis on melodic elements.
  • Strong Guitar Work: Adrian Vandenberg's guitar playing remained a central highlight, featuring impressive solos and riffs throughout the album. His skill and musicality were often praised.
  • Confident Vocals: Bert Heerink's vocals were generally considered more confident and assertive on this album compared to their debut.
  • Notable Tracks: The album featured several strong tracks, including "Friday Night," "Welcome to the Club," and the title track, "Heading for a Storm." Some reviews also highlight the ballad "Different Worlds."
  • Commercial Performance: While it didn't reach the same level of chart success as their debut album, "Heading For A Storm" still performed respectably and helped solidify Vandenberg's reputation in the hard rock scene.
  • Production Quality: The production was generally considered an improvement over their first album, contributing to the more refined and polished sound.

While some opinions varied, with a few critics finding some tracks to be less memorable than others, "Heading For A Storm" is generally regarded as a solid and enjoyable hard rock album from the early 1980s, showcasing the band's musical growth and Adrian Vandenberg's guitar prowess. It's often recommended for fans of classic hard rock with melodic undertones.
