Cool breakdown, glad to see you enjoyed it. And for the record, you are right, the instruments played in the video are recreations of the bands actual gear (albeit simplified for animation). The only exception being Elliot's' whose keyboard was swapped out with a fiddle for a more piratey look when animated.

Well, the audio version was released to Spotify and all that like an hour after I filmed the reaction, so at least I was able to listen to it on repeat when I was done editing the video. Haha

This can be sent to Pop and EDM stations as a gateway into metal.

I saw this for the first time yesterday and I've been singing P-A-R-T-Y ever since!

@4:18 - My favorite Alestorm song as far a Hooks go is also "Fucked With An Anchor". That chorus is so damn catchy, it can literally get you in trouble in some situations as I'm always finding myself singing the chorus all day long after listening to the song.

Well, you could always substitute the Flipped with a Sausage lyrics. Or the scottish version, though i doubt that gets you in less trouble.

This is gonna be their version of "We Got the Moves" from Electric Callboy I STG. Great song and the video is hilarious.

Alex Henderson also made a music video of Pirate's Scorn from their last album. I don't think it was official, but I'm oretty sure it got him this gig. Huge props to the band and the animator!

Plus... Ive only realized just a second ago, that at 2:49(in the official video) the skeleton steal the Crystal coconut, so we might have a direct reference to that very video

I'll never forget the night I danced to this with a Venezuelan girl and a Mexican girl to Alestorm live in Bogotá. Best night ever.

My body refused to stay still with this song! Can't wait for the album!

Dude the thing that hit me first of this videos is the animation just holy shit its so smooth

Alestorm goes techno... or even better: Italian disco.

Thank Satan for Alestorm. Metal includes all emotions and they bring the humour and joy every time they choose to. SUCH a fun song (and i see some cool mosh 'dances' in the future)!

Whoever came up with the concept of pirate metal, i wanna kiss them on the cheek for their genius.

audience singing the text you cant sing anymore after a while of partying 🙂 ...its so good

This song was definitely a quick favorite for me. I love Alestorm. They are excellent musicians, who dont take themselves super serious. It's a great combination.

Absolutely my favorite pirate metal band -- of course I can't say I've heard too many pirate metal bands, but I'm sure these guys would still be the best.

I feel like Alestorm is like one of the funnest bands of all time

I have listened to this song about a thousand times and seen the video probably about the same amount. I have heard this song so many times in the past week I know the lyrics.

I've seen Alestorm live a few times and can honestly say it's the most fun I've had at a gig!

Love how "MC Thunder II" is playing during the intro.

I really like the way they went with curse of the crystal coconut and the silly, catchy songs and was almost dissapointed with magalans expedition, but P.A.R.T.Y is already one of my favorites :D

Remember, Tank. Captions on Alestorm vids, always. And...I can just imagine you blasting this song, like, a day or two later and dancing with the 1 year old in the living room much to the chagrin of the wifey...who then joins in the fun anyway because fuck it, why not.

With the question of Captain Yarrface's credits, it's to do with like a tag line (or whatever you want to call it) that Rumahoy has. It reads "welcome to the sea" I believe, so with a bit of creativity it became courtesy of the sea (welcome to it)

Funny Alestorm story. Back in 2009 at the Wacken Rocks Seaside festival I was in one of the opening bands (Tribe - released one album - pray for calm… need the chaos- toured with Hammerfall and Dream Evil as well as a few festival slots around Europe, then imploded and that was that 🤦‍♂️😂). Anyway as we were setting up I was approached by someone to play drums for them at that festival. The drummer had got so pissed at the airport in the UK that he wasn’t allowed on the flight! I wasn’t a fan of the whole pirate thing so had paid no attention to the band. Knew the name but not a single song etc etc. so obviously I declined the offer politely. I was then told that it was ok as he’d done this before 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and they had full backing tracks on their laptop so all was good. They just would’ve preferred a live drummer!!! Rock and roll 🤘🤘🤘(I still haven’t heard a single song by them but gonna stick around till the end of the bud ✊😉

One of the funniest music video and song in a while. Saw your comment on I mean Criminals Video and was instant hyped of your reaction :D

Broooooo, can't wait to see them live in July.

Yeah I love these guys just a really fun band to listen to. Captain Yarface is the singer for another pirate metal band named Rumahoy.

Wow Alestorm new song made me headband so much and love it!!!

Great breakdown dude,you are right it’s going to be mental live 🏴‍☠️🍺🤙🏻

The number one party song for the summer is here.😃P.A.R.T.Y.🤟

Why are pirates, pirates?? Because they ARGGHhh... Absolute banger. Monkey Island animation and a sick hook, such a happy feel good song. You'll soon be wearing a bandana and beading your beard if you keep getting fed mint pirate vibes like this man.

My one year old loves this song so much, it's getting played a LOT 🤣🤣🤣🤣 good job we love it too

Their most fun track in a while!! Saw them live twice and they were the most fun band, I would go ham to this track live for sure!

I think Tank has unconsciously set a challenge for animated music videos- being sufficiently detailed that he's still able to accurately break down their gear

Already hooked when I heard it the first time. Alestorm's "Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship" is great too. Also, "Drink".

Yarrface has taken a few swipes at Alestorm before. There's one song he freely admits he stole from Alestorm. It's only fitting that Alestorm blows him up. The animation is great too. All these little touches like the skeleton arm fingering the violin isn't attached and how the skeletons kind of spreads out when they're airborne then fall back together (most of the time).

P.A.R.T......Y? BECAUSE I GOTTA!!!!

I found an Alestorm CD in a random Vintage Stock in Kansas which is really neat because it's not often you get European pirate metal across the big soup to the middle of the country here, that's quite a Treasure Chest Party Quest

I couldn't recommend you enough to check out the Australian band Claim The Throne with 'Set Sail on Ale' or 'Zephyrus'. They even toured with Alestorm in Australia some years ago ;)

I've had this song on repeat, such a fun song!! Can't wait to see them live again!

I'm super excited for the new album! Alestorm is so much fun! 😂

Letting you watch the video before it's released must be such an honor. Really shows the value of your videos shining all the way from the fans to the bands and their publishers!

Oh we lost our minds when they played in Pittsburgh just a few days ago when they played this song. Was a hell of a set at Stage AE. So sad they didn't play longer

I saw Alestorm in 2019 and I would say it was the most fun gig I've ever been to. I agree that this song would go off in a live setting.

Ale Storm really do need to do a cross over with the scooby gang lol 😂 that's an animated movie I would totally watch

You keep dropping these quality songs... and now I'm going to be randomly singing this for days!!!! Wish I could give some music back, but you seem to have most of it covered! Only really noticeable absence of artists that I love in the songs you've already covered are Ricky Warwick (Almighty/Black Star Riders) and Andre Matos (Angra, Shaman, Symphonia, Avantasia), but I'm not sure that they're appropriate. You could do "Sparta" by Warkings featuring Melissa Bonny! But anyway... Keep it up dude! Loving the channel!

Yo Tank, in the second verse, Chris mentions "Captain Yarrface" who is actually the vocalist of another awesome fun pirate metal band called Rumahoy. I highly recommend their really fun track "Forest Party" and it has a music video.

Also, apparently Captain Yarrface is part Australian (could be wrong, though). The line that references him drinking beer from a shoe, is something that happens in Australia; it's called a "shoey", where you fill a shoe with some kind of alcohol, usually beer, and drink it.

I've read somewhere that Rumahoy were originally from Scotland and they've known Alestorm for ages. The shoey I think is a reference to Australian pirate metal band Lagerstein

The day gets better and better. A new video from Tank. And Alestorm.... True Scottish Pirate metal at its best.

Loved the reaction! LOVE their video! Even my 5 year old daughter loves the video and was singing P.A.R.T.Y. LOL

I used to listen to Alestorm back when I was in school about 12 years ago and I love the fact that I watched this and loved it just as much as I loved their music back then

07:37 iam actually impressed you picked up on the Acoustic Guitar here. You have excellent hearing :D For me this is the thing that brings this whole part togheter you can totally miss its there but once you realize it its such an important part of the whole thing

Oh man I bought a pirate flag especially for their show at the masters of rock festival, and when they played this song... that was a partyyy! :D

like its coming from someone playing the guitar on a beach by himself and blows up to this whole journey the band was on untill now...cant wait to see em again ..i have to go there no matter the costs

I love how crazy and catchy is this song. Thanks to teach me what a hook is, I have a fancy word right now to explain why I love Alestorm's silly songs. Keep going on your way, and never stop to P. A. R. T. Y.

Always watch Alestorm videos with closed captions on 🤫

Been listening to this song every day since it dropped... whenever I feel like I need a 2nd wind (quite frequent working 2 jobs... more like on my 12th wind😅), this song does it! Definitely gets my vote for song of the year!

I'm still really lukewarm on the first single (even though I love old school Alestorm) but damn. This... this is something else.

Getting to listen to these guys live (again) on Thursday at CopenHell :) Love your stuff, keep it rockin' dude

Arrrrr...very nice new song from the guys and vid of you. And yeah...writingwise the chorus and bridge part remind me a lot on Mexico. But absolutely positive🤘

That captain yarrface credit at the end is a reference to his lines in Tortuga, there's quite a few easter eggs hidden in the animation in various places

Saw them a couple years ago brilliant still love Keelhauled and Drink but this is catchy too

Loved the reaction video, thanks!

I had a feeling new alestorm was going to drop because new gloryhammer dropped before and one of the members of alestorm is in gloryhammer

So excited I’m actually seeing them with Gloryhammer in a few weeks. I’ll let you know how it is live

Got to see this live at Download this year was so much fun!!

Have you seen Curse of The Crystal Coconut? It is both funny and catchy and a tribute to the Donkey Kong animated series most of us saw as kids.

As I first seen the animated map they were travelling I instantly thought of the Sea of Thieves intro.

Great reaction Tank, i love when bands just look like they are having a blast much like feuerschwanz or Nanowar...but I'll admit not every Alestorm song works for me (occasionally a hair too much toilet humor for my personal tastes) but when they nail it, like with this one, omg do they nail it... I'll be humming that hook all day long and happily

Not bad, for being 18 hours into a 12 hour day. This'll be the song that peels the black off all those metal-t-shirts in the crowd. It's more stomp than chug, and we need precisely that, sometimes. BTW, it'd be a blast to play the "Spinal Tap" version of this... all basses. I hope Will Ramos does a cover.

big props to Napalm Records 👍

Just saw them live the other day. This song went so hard live.

Can't agree more. Not a fan of their older stuff, but all their newer "dance" and party songs are awesome.

I only really heard of Alestorm when they released Drink through a random link, I've been hooked ever since. I do think this a bit more of the melding of their early and newer stuff, definitely has the sort of bouncy feel from Mexico but also nods back to the likes of Keelhauled. I love it, in case you hadn't already guessed :)

Said EP dropped and its all good.

I really hope that Alestorm's next music video will feature this pretty redhead playing the hurdy-gurdy on their album.

I have heard this song several times now and watched the video most of the time. I love it, such a fun song. I guess I'm "old Alestorm" where I got in during Black Sails at Midnight so I saw the transition into harsh-screaming vocals and the more fun vibe having been creeping in more and more. I love it all, Chris reacted to a comment I made about the video and he made a comment how half the fans hate the other half of their songs and I jokingly said that "humor is a sub-genre" lol which isn't far off from your own points you have made that there's this resentment of humor or fun in metal

Alestorm are Alestorm, they do disco, epic, and downright great metal! By the way I am so jealous of your beard!

Gonna see them at Graspop Metal Meeting festival in a couple of Weeks! So excited to hear this one, the crowd is going to lose their mind for sure 😁

Lyrically this is such a simple song but damn if it's not catchy as all hell. Been listening the heck out of this song and it hasn't gotten old yet. Plus the animated video is awesome as well and a ton of fun to watch.

I'm going to be singing this song for the rest of the week.

Love it.... Let's get P.A.R.T.Y. !!!!! \m/

It's good to see something new on a show there is a band called BAD WOLVES the hit song is ZOMBIE may I request you're reaction on this video

Got me dancing around my kitchen while drinking a bottle of rum

Awesome 😎. Now I like to party all night long, but I have to get up for work tomorrow 😩. My favorite tune is The sunken Norwegian. 👍❤️👍

Fun fact, I'm not sure if you know him, but Captain Yarrface is the singer for another pirate band under napalm records, who sings for Rumahoy.

For anyone who doesn't know go watch the music video with the closed captions turned on. They tuck little things in there.

Found this song on day one. It’s been sticking in my head ever since. Yesterday I had economic lesson at school this song kept sticking in my head and that was actually the first time I didn’t get a headache from economics

I like how they had a party, TO STEAL THE TREASURE with the other skeletons not knowing until it was too late.

It's party time! P.AR.T. Y? Because I gotta! I feel old making that reference

Someone should send the music video to Ron Gilbert.

Pulse of the dead from Parasite inc. These guys need more views, make them famous :). New album coming out on August 19.

I love this video, my 6 & 4 year olds demand it on constantly! Love your reaction too, been waiting for this, will you be doing the new Gloryhammer too?

I don't know if I'm totally off the chart here but I'm getting several "nods" towards Madagascar, the animated film from some years back. Like the skeleton flying through the air, making a face plant on the beach with only the legs sticking up. A bit further on in the Concert Hall - The band on the stage with the crowd jumping all the time in front of them, and behind that a group of people lit up from behind. But maybe I'm seeing things that aren't there, I have the Madagascar DVD but it's probably about 10 years since the last time I watched it. That aside - You are right Tank, it is a good Earworm and if they play this Live at a Festival it will probably be so much Pogo dancing in the crowd that it will register at seismic sensors nearby. Cheers / B.

I just wanna see em live ;-;
