Alestorm - Drink, Scottish pirates love drinking beer and rum

Alestorm have just released a video for the song "Drink". Unsurprisingly the song is about pirates who will steal and drink your beer and rum.

What else can you expect from a band who calls itself Alestorm and describes its music as"True Scottish Pirate Metal" or even "Bacon Powered Pirate Core"

Alestorm sure knows how to make a catchy drinking song, that would be ideal for a Pirates of the Carribean soundtrack.

Tanzwut - Unsere Nacht. Magical Modern Mediaevalism

Tanzwut are back witch a new album  "Eselsmesse", which will be released on June 6th, 2014 and with a video for the song Unsere Nacht from that same album.

Tanzwut started as a side project of medieval band Corvus Corax. You may recognize Teufel, central figure of Tanzwut, with his little devils horns haircut as a bagpipe player in Corvus Corax.  

Tanzwut debuted as a hybrid between Corvus Corax purist medieval sound with authentic instruments and modern electronic music. Slowly Tanzwut evolved to a more medieval rock/ folk rock sound, sporadically even journeying on the paths of medieval metal like In Extremo, earning itself a place in Germany's popular Mittelalterrock scene (amongst bands like Subway to Sally, Saltatio Mortis, Letzte Instanz, Schandmaul and In Extremo).

If Unsere Nacht is representative for the whole Eselsmesse album, you may conclude that Tanzwut rounded the circle and ended up at an authentic mediaeval sound, similar to Corvus Corax, where they originated from.

EQUILIBRIUM releases Wirtshaus Gaudi video in anticipation of the Erdentempel album

German Epic Metalheads EQUILIBRIUM will set aflame a new bonfire this summer with their fourth attempt Erdentempel.

Erdentempel will be released June 06, 2014 via Nuclear Blast.

As a thirsty foretaste to their new album, Equilibrium has released the video "Wirthaus Gaudi".

Wirthaus Gaudi blends death metal with traditional drinking songs.

I am pretty sure, that René Berthiaume, the guitarist, composer and lyricist of EQUILIBRIUM ,had an enormous hangover the morning after the video shoot.
