There is more than one artist with this name:
1) Brainstorm is a genre-bending group based in Portland, Oregon, co-signed to Olympia’s K Records and Lasercave. A unique mixture of guitar-based art-rock, marching-band music, and old American spirituals, they skip playfully across borders and styles. Portland’s Brainstorm consists of Adam Baz and Patrick Phillips who, between just the two, play electric guitar, drums, tuba, synth, and sing. They released their debut album “Battling Giants” on Lasercave Records.
2) Brainstorm is a power/thrash metal band from Germany, formed in 1989. The band features American born lead singer Andy B. Franck, who is also famous for his other band, Symphorce. They are known to play a somewhat darker style of music than most power metal groups.
Formed in 1989 by Torsten Ihlenfeld and Milan Loncaric on guitars and Dieter Bernert on drums, Brainstorm released their first demo “Hand Of Doom” after one year of existence. Following shows with Stormwitch, Exciter and Rage, the tracks “Kings, Queens and Sins” and “Law” appeared on a compilation LP. After completing their line-up with bassist Andreas Mailänder, the band released the second demo “Heart Of Hate” in 1992, which quickly gained cult status in the local metal scene.
Initially unable to find a suitable singer, the band solved the problem when Marcus Jürgens joined the band, being named “Newcomers of the Month” by the German Rock Hard magazine with their third demo “The Fifth Season”, released in 1994. After releasing yet another demo and single tracks on compilations, the band signed their first recording contract in 1997.

Latvian band is PRATA VETRA, THEY HAVE NO RIGHT TO CALL THEMSELVES "BRAINSTORM". AND GET THAT INTO YOUR TINY HEAD, IT'S BRAINSTORM in GERMANY THAT FIRST CALLED THEMSELVES "BRAINSTORM", NOT LATVIANS. AND FYA LATVIANS!

Kriksylv, так странно. а почему пишущий по-русски житель Латвии называет Ренарса Рейнардом? Это же вроде псевдоним для запада. :)
