Deathsworn, Oathbound On a quest for vengeful slaughter We sail to the halls of doom With the black flag raised in the sky Deathsworn, Oathbound No gods shall be our master We sail to the halls of doom With the black flag raised to the sky
Santa became so bored of his job that he decided to become a pirate and live a life of adventure on the frozen seas of the Arctic. And then he decided to become a monster-hunter halfway through.
If these guys released an album consisting of mostly those symphonic black metal high-shrieked vocals It'd instantly become one of my favorite albums of all time. That's the kind of album I've been craving for a long long time.
I would like to see a heavy metal Musical featuring Alestorm on their quest to defeat the leviathan including all the songs that they have produced. Also 6:25 is awesome !
DivineRockStar101 yes i gotta agree these guys were born for FILM! all that bullshit in movies n tv and super interesting talent like this is overlooked,
+Mister Babadook I read this comment while there was an ad, and I was expecting him to scream "FAAAAAAAAARRRRRR BEYOND THE DAAARRRRRRK STREEEEEAAAAAAMMMM!"
Wowwww, this reminds me of a story I wrote when I was a kid in elementary school for some school written composition. It was about me being a captain on a pirate ship, and we fought a giant squid monster and we managed to kill it by firing a cannonball into it's eye! xD Teacher gave me a bad grade for it thought -.- :D
Harsh vocals. w/e lol PS: I love Black Metal. I've been really getting into Immortal, Gorgoroth, and Old Man's Child lately, and I also love Dimmu Borgir.
Many later Alestorm songs reference previous songs, the eponymous Terror Squid comes from the previous album (specifically the song Leviathan), as does the reference to slaying ninjas. The mention of defeating Vikings is from the first song of this album, in which they document their travel through time to defeat vikings and steal their gold.
ARandomName yes and no.... yes he does it as a piratie gimmick sometimes but as the Scottish (glaswegian) accent is so thick it carries through into his singing giving it a naturally pirate like sound,
Im I the only dude that knows that Ken Sorceron of Abigail Williams does guest vocals for this song, but doesn't appear on the music video. Besides Ken nails this song!
those pirates are in the middle of a freezing environment on a sinking ship that's also on fire. that's what you get for killing an animal that was minding it's own fucking business.
I love how everyone else is dressed up like metal pirates the drummer is just chillin
Trent Akerlund at least he has a reason if he was dressed like the rest of them hed probably die from overheating lol
@@propper-g7725 Their guitarist (in that video) also looks like he'd overheat.
Bassist seems fine.
he's dressed like a crab fisher
@@daltongill8677 lmao made me snort. too true
At least the drummer remembered to wear a hat...
And that children, is how a group of pirates saved Santa from the evil terrorsquid.
+ned *aye
+Everett Logan LOL I'm kinda drunk right now so I don't totally get it but it sounds funny as fuckj XD
+Everett Logan Yar!
+Everett Logan Did Scooby Doo and the Harlem Globetrotters help?
+Everett Logan you sir have won the internet 4 months ago
I love how it suddenly changes to black metal when the beast awakenes
me too bro,I loved this fucking part hehehe \m/ METAL RULES \m/
Love black metal
its the best part, legit gives me chills
Black metal is something to live for.
Nice Crossover with Dimmu Borgir
"Deathsworn! Oathbound! On a quest to vengeful slaughter!" is now my battlecry.
"Revenge is a dish best served fried"!
@@bryancooper9581 my favorite line in the song
@@bryancooper9581 now I want calamari
The new Pirates of the Caribbean movie is looking good so far.
I love how this song just randomly burst into black metal.
The bad acting makes this video even more perfect than it should be hahaha
the quest of a bunch of pirates to save santa from an overgrown snake
abucket14 overgrown squid actually
Zack Chapin eh, i stand by what i said but i will still accept your correction.
I don't think you or I could make better video without the expensive Hollywood effects and CGI.
I think it's bad on purpose lol
Well. I got to say that's the best black metal I have heard in a long time, weird to find in the middle of pirate metal but fuck it works
DEATHSWORN!! OATHBOUND!!!!!!!!!!! ON A QUEST FOR VENGEFUL SLAUGHTER!! WE SAIL TO THE HALLS OF DOOM WITH THE BLACK FLAG RAISED IN THE SKY!!
Listening this song since 4hours non stop
this is the best $100 dollar music video ive ever seen
you ever heard of glory hammer?
The one ? Who lost control ?
Frosty TheLion I swear every where I go I see comments from you
what? @howard Rash europe pays in euro... dumbass
It's difficult to find a decent session Leviathan these days, CGI will have to do
What an absolutely fabulous band. Somehow I missed finding them, till now. Bloody amazing
Eh you're late to the party. Their first 3-4 albums were great. After they added thr keyboardist they went from pirate metal to party metalcore
Every time the Black Metal styled scream always gets me off guard, you don't expect it from Alestorm.
It's Ken Sorceron of Abigail Williams who's providing the guest vocals, didn't even know till I discovered myself!!
Shane Hammersmith yeah this song got me into AW. Ken is amazing.
Not only Black Metal styled. But a short Black Metal and Symphonic Black Metal part.
I mean maybe from Elliot who was not in the band back then. Never knew Chris Bowes' voice can do that
Deathsworn, Oathbound
On a quest for vengeful slaughter
We sail to the halls of doom
With the black flag raised in the sky
Deathsworn, Oathbound
No gods shall be our master
We sail to the halls of doom
With the black flag raised to the sky
Hell Yeah!!! I’ll use that as my warcry at any military simulation Airsoft game from 2024 till death
The transitions black/pirate metal are gorgeous
4:15 - Dimmu Storm a.k.a Ale Borgir begins.
4:50 - Full power
Santa became so bored of his job that he decided to become a pirate and live a life of adventure on the frozen seas of the Arctic. And then he decided to become a monster-hunter halfway through.

Actually I own it already. :D and you're right, it's an amazing album. My brother introduced their album to me a couple months back.
Alex Cambron Have you heard Wintersun - Lost Souls?
Yeah, I've been waiting on Time II and it can't arrive sooner. :/ Never heard about Lost Souls though, I'll check that out; thanks.
Wizardthrone is kind of like what you're talking about - have you given them a listen?
Check out xanthochroid
1) Go to the growling part.
2) Play it at normal speed. Alestorm.
3) Play it at 1.5 speed. Dimmu Borgir.
4) Play it at 2 speed. Immortal.
Trve Black metalestorm
1.5x perfect!
Lol
Yet slow it down to .75.
+Greg Jonson * Plays at 1.5 *
Jesus christ you're right. And this shit sounds fucking amazing
In my opinion one of the best parts of this song is the amazing contrast between the dark screeching and the uplifting violin.
I have always loved Alestorm's guitar tone. I think their overall productions are pretty sick
their organic drum tone is also pleasing to listen to!
Their piratey sound is cool, not a big fan of their later addittion of "screaming death metal" vocal though
Honestly, tell me about more original band...
Needs more drop d
Their producer is very good
That black metal part is awesome
+Orias X Agreed!
+Orias X I nostalgia'd hard on Cradle of Filth when I heard it (or was it Dimmu Borgir?)
+Sean Ivins It sounds exactly like dimmu
+Orias X that's racist
+Orias X Its Ken Sorceron of Abigail Williams.
Pirates, Pirates, Pirates, THEN SUDDENLY! Dimmu Borgir!
+Joe “FMH” Gandy Sounds more like Emperor to me.
+RGudmetalhead Abigail Williams ;)
+Joe “FMH” Gandy I was thinking more Cradle of Filth with the mood but Dimmu Borgir vocally UuU
+Joe is right. It's Dimmu Borgir.
Reminds me alot of early Ensiferum really.
I would like to see a heavy metal Musical featuring Alestorm on their quest to defeat the leviathan including all the songs that they have produced.
Also 6:25 is awesome !
That glorious cheese at the end when they point at the dead terrorsquid like an 80s action film.
The Terrorsquid appears to be an octopus.
'Tis the Kraken matey.
SQUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!!
Two more tentacles means twice the terror.
Bjorn Njordson REEEELEASE THE KRAAAAAAAKEN
lama en feu JAAAAAAAAAAAAACK SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
Why is there no Alestorm film? Alestorm of the Caribbean...
Best idea EVER
TheSuaveITguys Someone make this happen for crying out loud!
DivineRockStar101 yes i gotta agree these guys were born for FILM! all that bullshit in movies n tv and super interesting talent like this is overlooked,
Plague Sommat Yep!
Pirates of the Alestorm.
This mix of Folk and Black metal excites me maybe a little too much.
Check out Cruachan
No squids were harmed in the making of this movie.
*it's a TERRORsquid :D
Laaaame
1,287 people are upset that the video didn't have Fannybaws in it.
And I'm one of them
What is a fannyaw
These guys really pissed Squidward off.
This and Captain Morgan's Revenge are Alestorms best songs. Love when these guys decide to go all epic and stuffs
Alestorm should do a cover of Hoist the Colors from Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End!
i was thinking the same thing
4:16 When the devil hijacks your song.
And it sounds exactly like Dimmu Borgir.
yeah its their vocalist
asd fgfa It's actually the vocalist from Abigail Williams.
And that's coming from the guy with a Ludo Tech avatar...
The Faceless Stranger It does my heart that you know who they are.
Poor squid he only wanted to cuddle :'(
4:05
Alestorm begins the transformation into Ensiferum.
+Mister Babadook or maybe Dimmu Borgir.
Ramiro4789
Sounds more like early Ensiferum. Listen to Goblin's Dance and you'll see the resemblance.
+Mister Babadook I read this comment while there was an ad, and I was expecting him to scream "FAAAAAAAAARRRRRR BEYOND THE DAAARRRRRRK STREEEEEAAAAAAMMMM!"
+Mister Babadook Goblin's Dance is fucking awesome!
RiccardoTheBeAst
It sure fucking is.
I always get goosebumps when this turns into a black metal song.
Good God.
Ken Sorceron's vocals with Alestorm musicanship. Freaking perfect.
ARE YA READY KIDS?!
I can't here you
AKRAZY KRAUT. you sir, GET IT. High five.
***** Squidward tentacles
That intro would be so much better with Alestorm playing the theme.
John190assman
snobby and grumpy, and elitist is he!
Alestorm keeping Asian school girls safe from big bad squid :)
Momotaro's Sea Warriors, A Japanese propaganda film, had the squids attacking American shipping.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@micmac274 I think it's a henti joke
@@bencameron539 Tentacle porn has centuries of tradition in Japanese culture
That's so wrong 😂😂😂
This song is so genious and great that i cant find words! Thanks Alestorm. You Rule!
4:17 Cradle of Filth mode engaged.
2:20 The drummer didn't hit the crash right there :D
great catch! :D
Tom Snyper thank you, i've been waiting so long
Buralarda türk görmek de iyi
Lol that second part went Dimmu Borgir in a sec :D
So, it was not just my feeling... :D
ChaosPrototypeIX I had tonread the comments to see how many people will say that... or if that was just me... great dimmu stuff haha
Oh hey there shagrath didn't expect you here :)
I've had this lurking memory of an epic metal song about a giant squid for the last few years
I thought it was a dream
I have completed my quest
Probably the best song they've written in my opinion.
Watch out for the Playstation 1 cutscene squid!
Tippity-Top Town ps1 squids were pretty baller imo
Wowwww, this reminds me of a story I wrote when I was a kid in elementary school for some school written composition. It was about me being a captain on a pirate ship, and we fought a giant squid monster and we managed to kill it by firing a cannonball into it's eye! xD Teacher gave me a bad grade for it thought -.-
:D
A+, in my book.
Too be perfectly honest: that looked my like a terroroctopus than a terrorsquid. But really one gigantic cepholopodic menace is as good as another.
Saw 'em live yesterday, neck still hurts!
This is the song that got me into Black Metal 10 years ago, freaking awesome til this day \m/
we sail to the halls of doom with a black flag raised in the sky
FUCK YEAH !!!!!!
I love it when Metal songs have a story. Otherwise it's just people yelling at me and really, who wants that? Good on ya boyos!
The best Alestorm song!
I used to question how pirates beat vikings. But since I found out they were scottish pirates it all made since. They are viking pirates!
This is my jam.
Learn how to speak English
fak u guys
what the hell did i just read
Dolan Duck your grammar is terrible
***** is dolan , his grammar is irrelevant
4:05 when Alestorm turns into Dimmu Borgir. It is so Spiritual Black Dimensions, love it!!
When he starts growling... holy fuck...
not his growls tho
not really growling more of the type of scream you would here in black metal, still fucking awesome \m/
Harsh vocals. w/e lol
PS: I love Black Metal. I've been really getting into Immortal, Gorgoroth, and Old Man's Child lately, and I also love Dimmu Borgir.
Shrieking vocals. Thats the name of his screams. They are commonly used in Black Metal.
I didnt know the Alestorm singer could pull that off. I am digging it!
am i the only one who noticed the guitar strap that the guitar player uses has thepiratebay logos ?
Lol, you're right! I hadn't noticed that before.
+Thall Djihad OMG YOUR RIGHT! good eye
+Noctumus
I'm digging the Cradle of filth screams and Dimmu Borgir Strains
one of my favorite songs of all time. epic score.
God damn I want to be a pirate.
Wanna start a crew matie
+Poke Im down
I want to be the pirate that isn't Disney, rapey, or violent. I just want booze and the ocean.
then become a drunk fisherman who doesn't pay taxes
Fuck yeah
Riding the waves of the Seven Seas ain't ever been easier. Thanks to Alestorm!
Gotta drink Kraken rum while listening to this.
Arrgreed
I've seen vocalist Christopher Bowes wearing a black Kraken rum t-shirt with a red kilt!
Definitely getting into these guys XD. I love every song I've heard so far
Is that scream Dani Filth from Cradle of Filth? at 4:30 'ish
...from the time beyond dawn of time...
...we've defeated vikings and ninjas we have slain...
This is so ridiculous its actually good
6:58 the icing on the fucking cake XD
What?
I feel this deserves ALOT more views and likes. Bloody brilliant
this song is fucking epic.
This song made me and my dad able to conquer putting together an IKEA flatpack bed
Unfortunately, Captain Bowes and the God of IKEA no longer have a working relationship.
Is the guitarist a dwarfe?
That honestly adds to the experience.
This songs been stuck in my head all day at work.
Deeeep friieeedddd!
They could've sat on that riff at 6:10 for 2 minutes and I'd be cool with it
When he starts shrieking vocals it sounds like Shagrath from Dimmu Borgir. Can anyone confirm if it is him or not?
No, This is the singer of Abigail Williams
Brother: Mom said it's my turn to play on the Xbox
Older Brother: 4:19
4:51 - 5:52 Gotta love that part
PLEASE! Tell me if there's ANY OTHER BAND out there besides Cradle, Dimmu and Immortal playing like that!!!!! 4:51
when he screamed it was pure therapy for my soul
Did they just say "We've slain ninjas?" WTF LOL?
Yea, that's Alestorm for you.
Many later Alestorm songs reference previous songs, the eponymous Terror Squid comes from the previous album (specifically the song Leviathan), as does the reference to slaying ninjas. The mention of defeating Vikings is from the first song of this album, in which they document their travel through time to defeat vikings and steal their gold.
Thought he said witches :/
It's a reference to the whole "pirates vs ninjas" thing...
the strangest part is he rhymes slain with again
Still Not sure if he's actually Scottish, or if it's his pirate voice?!?!
Both.
Met him when I was 12, he actually talks like that.
Saw these guys opening for Kamelot a couple years back. Still love how much fun they seem to be having.
Main singer looks like thorin oakenshield from the hobbit haha
Lol I thought I was the only one who thought that XD
4:05 Inspired by Cradle of Filth
4:40 till 6:05 Inspired by Dimmu Borgir
Pirate blackened power metal. One of my favorite songs.
Amon Amarth is one Viking you won't beat.
I feel like they'd get really drunk and somehow win.
Does Bowes pronounce every "r" with a rolling r?
Yeah, it makes it so much better too
ARandomName yes and no.... yes he does it as a piratie gimmick sometimes but as the Scottish (glaswegian) accent is so thick it carries through into his singing giving it a naturally pirate like sound,
+sythmaster0 He isn't Glaswegian. He comes from Perth, central Scotland. It's a bit of a different accent
cool story br0
Jack Bedborough Perth? "Central?" Have you been huffin' glue lad? Maybe you're right, I'm so far north everything south of Aberdeen is "south" to me.
The favorite part of this clip is when dime burger black metal cheesy pirate half-year dressed boots starts singing in third act
I love the part where they just go full black metal! Such a versatile band.
It's so epic... and cheesy.. it's amazing!
4:50
Ship = sunk
Rum = chugged
Wig = fucking SNATCHED
This is how Alestorm will beat global warming.
Hate to be THAT guy, but the Terrorsquid appears to be an octopus.
+Josh Adams You're right :p
+Josh Adams That's why it's terrifying. It's anatomically inaccurate.
+Josh Adams terrorpus would of sounded silly
+Drew Taylor yeah, but what about the... OCTOTERROR?!
+Josh Adams Close enough. they're both cephalopods.
Im I the only dude that knows that Ken Sorceron of Abigail Williams does guest vocals for this song, but doesn't appear on the music video. Besides Ken nails this song!
Sea Of Thieves is perfect with this music. Ale Storm is amazing
These guys shoulda got a cameo in assassin's creed black flag
This has to be one of the best alestorm tracks imo
best final pic ever xD
OMG. Dimmu, then Cradle and Emperor? Is it only me or You hear the same?
+Jarek Drobiecki
I've noticed that
“We sail to the halls of doom with a black flag raised in the sky”.........epic!
He almost gives Shagrath a run for his money on the vocals. Almost.
those pirates are in the middle of a freezing environment on a sinking ship that's also on fire. that's what you get for killing an animal that was minding it's own fucking business.
venktesh rao but its a demon
