The ultimate pirate metal adventure is about to set sail!
Hoist the sails, sharpen your cutlasses, and fill your tankards—ALESTORM is back with their brand-new album, The Thunderfist Chronicles, set for release on June 20, 2025 via Napalm Records! The Scottish party pirates return with their eight album, containing eight new anthems packed with blistering riffs, wild shanty-driven riffs, and utterly ridiculous lyrics—taking the high seas of metal to new depths.
The Thunderfist Chronicles arrives as the successor to ALESTORM’s epic seventh studio album, Seventh Rum of a Seventh Rum, which peaked at #5 on both the US Current Hard Music and Top New Artist Albums charts, #7 on the German Album charts, and many more. After the release of last year’s Voyage of the Dead Marauder EP and extensive touring, the band returns for more! With The Thunderfist Chronicles, ALESTORM proves once again why they are the undisputed rulers of the Seven Metal Seas. So, grab your nearest jug of rum—this is going to be loud, chaotic, and absolutely legendary!
Christopher Bowes on the new album:
“This album is weird and full of difficult riffs that I already regret. There's a bunch of fun things to discover on the record though - we've got a cover of a song by our friends in Nekrogoblikon, a whole lot of other heavy stuff, plus the longest song I've ever written (over 17 minutes long) which features guest vocals from Patty Gurdy (everyone's favorite hurdy gurdy player) and Sir Russel Allen (Symphony X singer and my favorite vocalist of all time).”

NFINITE SEAS OF STELLAR DAMNATION
Oh wow! Today we entered the studio to start recording our 9th album, which will be called "Infinite Seas of Stellar Damnation"! We're recording it at Nahrávací Studio Divadla Na Orlí in Czechia (try saying that while you're drunk) with our long-time producer Lasse Lammert once again at the helm. It's got songs called "Alcohol and Gnomes" and "The Cult of Leviathan" and "The Pope's Gonna Be A Pirate" and a Jimmy Buffet cover, and a bunch of other long and complicated songs that you inevitably won't care about. Like most things in life, it comes out sometime next year, assuming we finish it. I'm sure that won't be a problem; we're all great at our instruments and the songs are easy to play. Anyway, that's all really. Oh yeah and the last song is another one of those 12+ minute things. And there's a bunch of bonus tracks too. And there's some bits in Japanese. Oh and there's a song called "Fuck" because if we didn't fill a song with swearing y'all would riot.
