scottish pirate folk....2ch Recto

[metalaxe]

I just fin ished work on the upcoming ALESTORM recording witch will be released in January (Napalm-Records).


It's a medley of 3 Song-snippets.
the first two I wanted to sound folky yet very modern, the 3rd one was supposed to sound pretty live and folky (vibraslap, jaw harp, roommics only(toms), tinwhistle etc).

it's too late to change anything, but please tell me what you think:


Alestorm-Sample


the Recto you're hearing is a '94 2ch
thanks for your feedback

Arrrrr More beer wench!... Not bad, I actually liked it. I'm a fan of folk metal (Fintroll, Moonsorrow, ect) The Pirate theme is too funny. The recto sounds really good.

Thanks for sharing
