Heavy Metal Sunday is in love.
May. 26th, 2013 10:55 amWhere the hell has Alestorm been all my life? A a folk metal band from Perth, Scotland. Their music is characterized by a pirate theme, and as a result they have been dubbed a "pirate metal" band by many critics and their fanbase. They refer to their genre as "Bacon Powered Pirate Core".
Bacon Powered Pirate Core. Just keep saying that.
The band formed under the name Battleheart in 2004. After releasing two demos, they were signed by Napalm Records in 2007 and renamed themselves Alestorm. Their debut album was released on 25 January 2008.[9] The band's third album, Back Through Time, was released in June 2011.
These guys manage to make a keytar cool. Well, almost.
So, enjoy Death Throes of the Terrorsquid. Seriously.
They also do a pretty awesome cover of Barret's Privateers
