Vocals are what made it bad to me. They have a song or two that actually sound decent with the vocals, though. But their biggest song makes my ears bleeeeeed!

Now I must admit that after a year of getting used to Alestorm, I'm totally hooked! I love them. For some reason I didn't really click with the whole pirate thing at first. No problem, though. I'm really looking forward to seeing them at Rockstad:Falun.

A'ight filthy landlubbers... new album announced


Quote:
"Greetings my fellow bawbags, pirates, and gobshites!

It is my very great pleasure to announce that on January 10th, Alestorm will be heading to the studio to record our 3rd album, which we're gonna call Back Through Time. It's gonna be an epic adventure through piratical badassery in 11 tracks, with more drunken singalong anthems than you can shake a stick at. There will be songs about midgets. There will be songs about Wisconsin. There will be songs about travelling through time to kill Vikings. And of course, loads of songs about pirates doing what they do best; kicking your ass and stealing your wenches!

Lasse Lammert will once again be at the helm of the production, at his LSD Studios in Lubeck, Germany. We'll be there for about a month (1 week of recording, 3 weeks of alcohol abuse), and we're hopefully looking at a release in early summer, in time for us to kick your asses with these songs at all the festivals.

In no particular order, here's the songtitles that we've got penned for the album:

The Sunk'n Norwegian
Shipwrecked (Pure Dead Banjaxed)
Buckfast Powersmash
Rum
Back Through Time
Swashbuckled
Death Throes Of The Terrorsquid
Midget Saw
Scraping The Barrel
Rumpelkombo
Barrett's Privateers

Of course these are all possibly subject to change, if we go crazy in the studio. There will inevitably also be a silly digipak version with a bunch of daft covers as bonus tracks as well, the exact details of which we'll announce at a later date.

Cheers everyone, and Merry Christmas!"

Setlist of last Saturday:

Back Through Time
Wenches & Mead
Heavy Metal Pirates
Nancy the Tavern Wench
Shipwrecked
Over The Seas
Keelhauled

They also played Wolves of the Sea, but I don't know where exactly, it was somewhere in the beginning. I put it in my cellphone, but it doesn't always save what I put in my notes.

Back Through Time heerscht.

And by the way, Barrett's Privateers is an old folk song. I was looking for it in the library of my own computer, and when I typed it in, I got another search result. Was a version by an old Scottish folk duo.

I like all songs on Back Through Time, maybe except for Death Throes of the Terrorsquid. But it's way better than their first two albums.

Planning on actively starting to listen to this band, and once again, I've heard about it here, on forum. This place really educates me. xD
