Firestorm is the second studio album by Russian symphonic black metal band Tvangeste. It was released on 1 September 2003 via now-defunct Japanese record label Worldchaos Production. It is available in two formats: the usual jewel case CD and the digipak, which contains different cover art and a radio edit of the song "Under the Black Raven's Wings" as a bonus track.

Most of the album's lyrics were written by Russian poet Alexander Marchenko.

A music video was recorded for the track "Under the Black Raven's Wings".[1] "Birth of the Hero" would be included on the soundtrack of the 2009 video game Brütal Legend.
