Merirosvohevin kärkinimi Alestorm on kirjoittanut uuden levytyssopimuksen Napalm Recordsin kanssa ja lupaa viidennen studioalbuminsa ilmestyväksi ensi vuoden aikana. Tuttuun piraattityyliin skottibändi kirjoitti sopimuksen käyttäen rommia musteena. Yhtyeen edellinen levy ”Sunset On Golden Age” julkaistiin vuonna 2014.

AHOY! After 8 years, 4 albums, 1 live DVD, an EP and a couple of singles, it is my great pleasure to announce that Alestorm will be re-signing our record contract with Napalm Records. Seven years ago I was standing naked in the middle of a field at Summer Nights Festival in Austria, screaming at Thomas Caser (CEO of Napalm Records), demanding more money. Now here we are today… looks like our plan worked! Being pirates, we had to sign the contract using rum as ink, nothing else would do! Unfortunately we only had white rum left (all the good stuff had already been drunk), so our signatures are invisible. We’ll leave that one to the lawyers to sort out. Expect the 5th Alestorm album to be released on Napalm Records in 2017! We’re taking our time with this one, and it’s gonna be good. Maybe. Cheers.
