When the Storm Comes Down is the third studio album by thrash metal band Flotsam and Jetsam, released in 1990. It was the last album with Troy Gregory on bass guitar, as he left the band in 1991 to join Prong. It was also the first Flotsam and Jetsam album released on MCA Records, and the first not to include songwriting contributions by former bassist Jason Newsted, having co-written material for their first two albums, and having since joined Metallica.
When the Storm Comes Down saw Flotsam and Jetsam take a different direction from their previous two albums, both musically and lyrically, and is the band's only record to be produced by Alex Perialas. The lyrical content of this album includes elements of political and social commentary, mirroring much of the dark and occult-related material from the band's first two albums, Doomsday for the Deceiver and No Place for Disgrace. The album also saw the band starting to move towards a progressive-oriented sound, and its production value has been compared to that of Testament's Practice What You Preach, which was also produced by Perialas and released just before the recording sessions of When the Storm Comes Down started
