ALESTORM: Australian Tour Dates Announced

February 17, 2010

Scottish folk/power metal band ALESTORM will embark on the "Plunder Down Under" tour of Australia in June. The dates are as follows:

June 17 - Amplifier Bar, Perth, AUS
June 18 - The Corner, Melbourne, AUS
June 19 - The Factory, Sydney, AUS
June 20 - Rosies, Brisbane, AUS

ALESTORM's "Keelhauled" video can be viewed below. The song comes off the group's latest album, "Black Sails At Midnight", which landed at position No. 87 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart. The Heatskeers chart lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.

ALESTORM released its debut album, "Captain Morgan's Revenge", in January 2008 through Napalm.

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."
