ALESTORM: New Mailorder-Only EP Due Before The End Of The Year

August 30, 2008

Napalm Records will release a new mini-CD from the Scottish folk/power metal band ALESTORM before the end of the year. The four-song EP, which will be made available via mailorder only, will contain the tracks "Heavy Metal Pirates", "Weiber und Wein" (German version of "Wenches and Mead"),"Leviathan" and "Wolves of the Sea".

ALESTORM recently announced the addition of drummer Alex "Hasselhoff" Tabisz to the group's ranks. "He is from Hamburg in Germany and has already proven himself as an exellent addition to the lineup with his amazing drum skills, hilarious and brilliant guy to hang out with, native German speaker and his uncanny ability to find the only open pub in China town in London at 1:00am!" the group's guitarist, Gavin Harper, previously said.

ALESTORM released its debut album, "Captain Morgan's Revenge", in January through Napalm Records.

According to a press release, the quartet "plays Scottish 'pirate metal,' by their own definition, and musically resembles the great battle metal bands such as KORPIKLAANI or TURISAS, albeit with a unique touch and Scottish instrumentation."
