Alestorm biografia

‘Alestorm’ are in a league of their own, weaving together a genre that is widely recognized as “pirate metal”. They hail from Perth, Scotland, and are signed to Napalm Records, with whom they have released a handful of studio albums.

The band signed to Napalm Records in 2007, and their debut album, “Captain Morgan’s Revenge” was released on January 25th 2008. The album started to build the band’s audience on an international platform, as they embarked on tours building on their profile.

This was followed by “Black Sails at Midnight” released on May 27th 2009, which included a live DVD of the band’s performance at the Wacken Festival of 2008. They played on the Paganfest tour in Europe, and Heathenfest in the United States, but most notably The Black Sails Over Europe Tour, which was prior to the release of the album. The band had 1000 copies of a teaser CD burned with three songs from “Black Sails at Midnight” on it, to generate hype adding to their campaign.

The band visited Australia and even Hard Rock Hell: Road Trip in Ibiza, before embarking on a tour before the release of their third studio album “Back Through Time”. They earned themselves a spot at the Sonisphere Festival in the UK, and a main support slot for Kamelot on their headlining North American tour. The album “Back Through Time” was released on June 3rd 2011, and made it to #42 on the German Albums Chart.

This band have many accolades to their name, having played on the “70000 Tons of Metal” cruise in the Caribbean, having supported Dragonforce, and having headlined their own North American tour. Alestorm’s fourth album, “Sunset on the Golden Age” was released on August 1st 2014.

Avaliações

Now who wouldn't want to see five musicians dressed as pirates playing their unique brand of folk metal. Alestorm's show is exactly that yet so, so much more. Pioneering a new genre that they have dubbed pirate metal, the Scottish band originally from Perth have a huge cult following in the UK and continue to sell out shows to fans who want to hear their unusual sound.

Touring across the world, the band are synonymous on the metal scene and have played at some of the most prestigious venues including Metalcamp and Wacken Open Air. All this exposure has meant the boys have created a bizarre, boisterous live show with nautical themes running through the stage set up and the setlist. Their folk rock is pretty powerful stuff, with crowds head banging along to the likes of 'Over The Seas' and popular opener 'Walk The Plank'. The characters come out from time to time, and the charisma is partly what makes them so unusual as a metal band, brilliant crowd interaction during 'Wenches & Mead' leaves fans cheering for the eccentrics' return.

They reappear with a frantic encore of '1741' and the satirically titled 'Captain Morgan's Revenge' which leaves fans cheering long after the pirates have boarded their ship to the next venue. Alestorm are a band who understand the importance of standing out in a saturated market, and for anyone who wants to see an alternative to the usual metal performers, catch them on their upcoming UK tour.
