Starting out at small shows somewhere in Eastern Scotland, the “Pirate Metal Drinking Crew” ALESTORM have since conquered album charts (their last album, Curse of the Crystal Coconut, ended up in the Top 10 of the official Scottish and Swiss album charts and peaked 12th on the German charts) and festival stages throughout the world. Their sound, which is now more precisely described as “Pirate Metal”, avails itself of folk, power, and heavy metal influences. If wearing a pirate hat while singing crazy songs about getting drunk and stealing ships sounds like your thing, then ALESTORM is your kind of party.
