Scottish pirate metal band Alestorm are planning on releasing a new album titled "Black Sails at Midnight" in 2009. Napalm Records issued the following statement:

"The Scottish buccaneers have not been idle the past few weeks. Besides an occasional raid and plunder, Alestorm entered the studio to work on new material. The hard work has paid off. Pirate Chris has already confirmed the delivery of hymns in the traditional Alestorm style: Sing-along refrains, keyboard melodies, heavy guitar riffs, and a full mug of rum! All of that and much more will be found on the upcoming album “Black Sails at Midnight”, which will be unleashed upon corsairs and landlubbers in the spring of 2009. Hoist the sails and polish the grapnels."

What's Next?

Alestorm people read these sites? Awesome!
Would have seen them in Glasgow but I had to go home that weekend. Real pity, would have loved to belt out some pirate tunes.
