Pirates. And metal.
If you're not already convinced, you might be a lost cause.
Alestorm is a Scottish band who's been spitting pirate-themed heavy metal shanties since the 2000s. Their sound has been a staple in osu! since practically the beginning of time, dating as far back as 2008 through a collection of beatmaps created by awp.
Want some of these treasures for yourself? Scrounge up 11 tunes from Alestorm's Featured Artist listing.
In recent time, Alestorm's songs have become iconic in the tournament scene too! Keelhauled took the spotlight in last year's Corsace Closed, and just a few days ago, Shipwrecked made its mark in Corsace Open. In case you missed it, watch Alestorm in last weekend's mappool showcase for yourself:
