Alestorm, those cheeky Scottish Pirate Metal mavens, have released a new music video, for their song Magnetic North. And it’s a weird video. There are people in prison, and some sort of prison guard dance scene, and a recipe for a cocktail what includes “dog poo.” Not as piratey as their previous videos, but they’re having fun & that’s all that matters.

This is a… unique song. I’m pretty sure they lifted the hook from In the Navy for it, and it’s a bit slower than some of their other songs (Lookin at you, Keelhauled). But it’s pretty catchy and definitely shows off some of the quirkiness that is part & parcel of the Alestorm experience. And you get some growl from the new keyboardist. You know a metal band is going for it when they have someone playing keytar and another playing keyboards.
