The Storm summons the ghosts of ZZ's chief inspirations such as Howlin' Wolf, Robert Johnson, and Big Mama Thornton, while echoing over soundscapes situated between gritty hip-hop bounce and moody guitar-and-harmonica riffs. The album features "Cannonball" and additional collaborations including "Domino" which reunites ZZ with Fitz of Fitz & The Tantrums and "Ride" which ZZ wrote specifically for the Disney*Pixar film Cars 3 and features Gary Clark Jr.
