Attention piratey mateys
 

Do you like pirates? Do you like metal? If you answered yes to either of these questions, you definitely should check out Alestorm.

....EW MYSPACE!

...That being said, they're not bad. However, the best metal pirates are obviously robotic pirates.

I came in here expecting a spammer advertising a music piracy site. I was pleasantly surprised.

I pretty sure pirates drink grog. They should be called Grogstorm. They obviously didn't do their research properly.

It's way more original than another fantasy metal band, though.

All that is needed now is a ninja metal band.

Ah, this is the type of Metal I can get behind. I thank you for delivering this unto us, and I thank Amazon and iTunes for having them in digital download for instant gratification!

They already exist; you just haven't seen them. That's how good they are. You can be right in the middle of one of their concerts and never know it.

I am very grateful that even my Zune Marketplace had them, I'm actually liking them a lot more than I was expecting. What a pleasant find!

Yar.

This is a rather pleasant surprise. I'm not exactly blown away, but it's certainly enjoyable, and it is pirate metal, which surely counts for something.

Now I have to play Rayman 2 (AKA BEST N64 GAME EVARZ) again.

Y'know, Nekrogoblikon has a song about killing pirates and eating their skin.

So, Goblin metal > Pirate metal
