Alestorm

From Perth in Scotland, and as the genre says, a metal band with a pirate/folk theme. You may have heard of Battleheart, who released 2 EPs, which is the name they were under from 2004 until 2007 when they renamed themselves Alestorm after being signed to Napalm records.

The current members are -
Christopher Bowes: lead vocals, keytar (2004 - present)
Dani Evans: guitar, backing vocals (2008 - present)
Gareth Murdock: bass guitar, backing vocals (2008 - present)
Peter Alcorn: drums (2010 - present)

This year they will be touring with Sabaton who are a swedish metal band who I've seen in Cambridge.

Their Studio Albums:
Captain Morgan's Revenge [2008], Napalm Records
Black Sails at Midnight [2009], Napalm Records

Their EPs:
Battleheart [2006]
Terror on the High Seas [2006]
Leviathan [2008]

I was wondering if anyone had heard of them, if so, what do you think of them?

If not I'm just introducing them to you and I suggest if you like this kind of stuff you should check them out. I hope to see them some day.

These guys are brilliant. Captain Morgan's Revenge is perhaps the best drinking album I have ever heard.

I WANT MORE WENCHES! MORE WENCHES AND MEAD!

Yay someone's heard of them =D They amaze me
