ALESTORM To Release Black Sails At Midnight In Spring 2009 Napalm Records has issued the following update on Scottish pirate metal act
ALESTORM: "The Scottish buccaneers have not been idle the past few weeks. Besides an occasional raid and plunder, Alestorm entered the studio to work on new material.
The hard work has paid off. Pirate Chris has already confirmed the delivery of hymns in the traditional
Alestorm style: Sing-along refrains, keyboard melodies, heavy guitar riffs, and a full mug of rum!
All of that and much more will be found on the upcoming album ?Black Sails At Midnight?, which will be unleashed upon corsairs and landlubbers in the spring of 2009.
Hoist the sails and polish the grapnels."
Earlier this month, the band issued the following:
"Alright lads and lassies,
The last gigs of 2008 are finally over. What a twunting year it's been! When we had our first ever full band rehearsal back in February, I doubt any of us would have imagined we'd get this far. But we're still alive in some shape or form, and ready to kick some more ass in the new year. It's gonna be ace. See you all on the road in 2009!
Until then, here's a cheap and cheerful live
*ahem* video of
'Wenches & Mead' we've put together. Enjoy..." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4QSdexTb3g&eurl=http://www.bravewords.com/news/103256
