You're going to like this one:
http://www.myspace.com/alestorm
even the name fits hehe.
they released only one EP so far, but got signed to Napalm recently, in the recent storm of 'battle metal' bands. so far they certainly dont offer anything groundbreaking, but they're still a lot of fun to listen to.
so, get yer mates, put this stuff on and drink yourself silly.. only good and proper use of this type of music, i say :D
-
Pirate Metal...
EXCELLENT
-
Bland ripoff, been done better by many other bands.
So, there! PDT_008
-
I'm seeing Turisas and Korpiklaani soon!!
Bought tickets for Turisas for september 19th or something and am just about to buy Korpiklaani tickets too.
-
They're not actually that new, they where origionally called Battleheart.
They rule muchly, wenches and meed is a great track.
As for changing their name....meh i thought Battleheart was cooler.
-
Oh yeah i remember these guys now, i used to be on their Battleheart forum hahaha!!
Wow they've changed a lot.
-
Ok I give up what in the name of god is "Battle Metal" when it's at home or else where.
Did it evolve from "Skirmish Metal" (which in itself may have derived from "a bit of pushing in the playground metal" ?)
Will it become "Limited Nuclear Strike Metal"
WTF is all this label business, why not just say fecking loud guitar music
It's not as if any of us work for the NME
-
well, that's why it's in these babies 'xx'. cos i too think that all this naming of sub genres is dumb. it's $%&#ing heavy metal or it's not
-
Sometimes it's hard to judge as so many people these days are attached to their labels.
TBH their image remind me of Jognny Kidd & the Pirates from the early 60s (or indeed Adam Ant and his gang from the years that music forgot)

Speak for yourself mate ;)

Looks like I should rephase this to :
It's not as if anybody here would admit to working for NME ;)
-
shouldn't it be called piratecore because everyone knows core is the current trend
I'm going to invent fish+chipscore

Haha, well it's past-tense for me.
I hated it, music photography sucks major nads!
Weird thing is, all the music photographers i meet who've been around for a long long while don't know how to play instruments... or at least guitar.

Well if the bands can't play it dosn't logical follow that the photographers can
For most people, anything that they do for a living is as appealing as having your home decorated by Pete Docherty

Does that mean that all other sub genres in different styles are obsolete to you?
Jazz is just Jazz now? Blues is just Blues? Stravinsky is the same as Bach?
To me that seems stupid, all a sub genre is, is a way for people to easily describe how a band will sound.
Personaly i find people getting enraged about sub genres amusing, so please keep going...
-
the problem is, with all this labeling of genres, that already have a name. as much as battle metal aint over the top, it's still heavy metal.
now what pisses me off is all that 'death/black melodically progresive thrash metal' if you know what i mean.
beides.. there's just two genres of music. one that sucks and one that is good.

Genres are arbatary
Too many genres defined by tiny variances and miniscule parameters, After all a music genre dosn't change just because of lyrical content (for example)
Is a christian band playing in the Black Metal style should they be called White Metal ?
Would Death Metal in a christian context become Ressurection Metal ?
To me the above is probably as pointless to you as the whole sub, sub genre business is to me.
Surely it's enough to say early Metallica with Black Flag type vocals, to sescribe something. Or early period Yes meets whatever !
Heavy metal when I was younger is now classic rock (I still don't know what the cut off point is)
Strangely I am facinated by peoples need to 'out obscure' those around them.
Too much time spent on defanitions and too little playing or listening to music (for my taste)
I concur with Davy it's all metal
I can put up with some sub genre labels, mainly to avoid cookie monster vocals, or Mr Malnsteen but thats about it
But in all honestly theres music I like and music I don't like and thats about it for me.

His blues piece was the funniest thing i've heard in a long time.

I enjoyed his busking in Denmark St video, but I wouldn't choose to purchase any of his output I'm afraid
