Post Alestorm
I came accross this band on the Rhapsody of Fire forum, and I liked it instantly. I know there is another thread about this (Not only a pirate in Speak your mind), but I just thought it was a good idea to start an official thread about them :P

So, any fans? And perhaps to feed a discussion: I saw the EP Leviathan in a CD shop in the black metal section. I'm under the impression that it is Power Metal, generally speaking.

You should try it sometime. If you don't like it, at least you can laugh your ass off :D It's really funny, especially the vocals 8-)

I have yet to find someone who does not like them. My mother likes them. That's saying something. And you have heard about them! :P You transfered my post about Alestorm from picture thread to make the "Not only a pirate" thread. "

I love Alestorm! Best thing to come out of this country for a while :)

"I want more wenches, more wenches and mead!
I want more wenches, lots of wenches is what I need!"

I believe they consider themselves 'Pirate Metal' :)

They ARE pirate metal. :D More so than Running Wild. Running Wild is ok, but it's pirate lyrics, not pirate metal. :P Alestorm gives me the whole piratey feel with every element of their music.

There's also "ninja metal" .... Kinda funny, but does NOT sound good. To me at least... I believe that band is called Ninja Magic.

LOL! Musically they're not too bad - not very ninjary but not bad. Vocals however are amongst the worst I've ever heard. He's just shrieking :lol:
