Perth, Scotland-based folk \/ power metal band Alestorm have released a music video for the track \u2018Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship\u2019. Featuring live footage filmed during the band\u2019s December tour of the UK and Ireland, the clip can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

The band commented: \u201cBack in December, we managed to defy all the odds and do a massive tour of the United Kingdom and Ireland, playing 11 huge shows to tens of thousands of fans, culminating in our biggest ever headline show at the Brixton Academy in London. While we were on the road, we also filmed a bunch of footage on and off the stage, so we thought we\u2019d stick it all together into a big fun music video featuring one of our favourite songs from our previous album, called \u2018Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship\u2019. Thanks to everyone who came to see us during these tough times, and extra special thanks to Loretta Lovely, who performed the female vocal parts \u2018live\u2019 on stage with us. Oh wow!\u201d<\/p>\n

Alestorm issued sixth full-length studio album Curse Of The Crystal Coconut<\/em> on May 29th, 2020 through Napalm Records. A wooden box set edition of Curse Of The Crystal Coconut<\/em> included a seven-inch vinyl disc featuring two bonus tracks, \u2018Big Ship Little Ship\u2019 and \u2018Bassline Junkie\u2019.<\/p>\n
