Týr eyeing Hold the Heathen Hammer High video

Directed by Silvan Büge from the album, By the Light of the Northern Star.

The Faroe Islands, home to Týr, fits well with the themes the band uses in their music. Their newest release is their fifth album to date. You can download the Hold the Heathen Hammer Here video here.

The viking imagery was there with the ship and the rowers but the drummer decides to throw it off with his shirt. It seems they decided to spend zero on wardrobe for the band, therefore they had them go shirtless. The drummer, maybe feeling insecure, keeps his shirt on and the entire mood of the video goes overboard(haha?)

Alestorm eyeing Keelhauled video

Directed by Silvan Büge from the album, Black Sails at Midnight.

No Quarter featured on Black Sails at Midnight was a track originally written under the band's former name, Battleheart. The band changed their name before signing to Napalm Records because of the similarity to the name of another group, Battlelore.

Another pirate themed metal group, though these versions look grittier than the others. Storytelling is fundamental when in these themed bands, reminds one of country music and there endless cries about their lost sheep. Captivating throughout, though it is straight out of the "Pirate Chants and How to Perform Them" handbook.
