Alestorm, who are sailing to the top of the heavy metal world with their wild pirate metal, are preparing to release their 8th full-length studio album. The album will be released on June 20th by Napalm Records.
The first single from the album, Frozen Piss 2, was released last month, accompanied by a music video. Today, the band is already on the verge of releasing their next single, Killed To Death By Piracy. The song will be accompanied by a joyfully animated music video.
“This song hits hard! Sharp riffs, brash vocals, and lyrics that incite death, destruction, and pirate madness will captivate the listener. The song is accompanied by a completely over-the-top music video that is as outrageous as the song itself. Raise your sails and prepare to die like a pirate!”, the band commented in their press release.
Along with Killed To Death By Piracy, the band also wants to draw attention to the conservation of swans.
“Several species of swans – such as the Tundra Swan and Whooper Swan – face serious threats due to habitat loss, climate change and power lines. Fishing weights are also a risk due to potential lead poisoning. They are incredible birds and vital to wetland ecosystems. Please consider supporting conservation efforts such as the work of the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust,” says Christopher Bowes.
