Ahoy there, all ye crusty crusaders of the seven seas! ‘Tis a fortuitous day indeed for the infamous privateers and pirate metal outfit Lagerstein, who have announced details of their third studio album!
Wacken Open Air, the Lagerstein crew set sail once more with their studio offering 25/7, promising a glittering treasure trove of twelve jaunty, colourful and undeniably boozy sea shanties. Serenading their love of rum, drunken parrots and drinking from shoes, 25/7 will be a coveted keepsake for any self-disrespecting, yellow-toothed swashbuckler!
Having hit the studio earlier this year to record in Sweden with world renowned producer Fredrik Nordström (Bring Me The Horizon, Arch Enemy, In Flames, Soilwork), Lagerstein’s album will be sliding into port on 23rd August 2019 via Kegstand Records. 25/7 boasts traditionally seaworthy instrumentation scored with modern, distorted guitar work and coarse vocal outbursts that continues the seven-piece act’s legacy as one of the greatest “party bands” of modern metal.
On the album’s title, the band offer a simple, effective and inspiring explanation:
What could be better than partying for 24 hours? Sailing west and stealing an extra hour of daylight so we can party 25/7!
Lagerstein took to social media to confirm that the artwork of ‘25/7’ has been dug up from the deep ahead of the album’s summer release date. The “party pirates” are also currently engaged on their huge “Endless Rum” Tour, which takes the band across Europe, with plans to continue partying their way across the globe to share the fun and joy of the pirate’s life with landlubbers and sailors the world over!
Pre-orders for 25/7 and more details on the album will be available soon.
Tickets for Lagerstein’s ‘Endless Rum’ tour can be purchased directly from the band’s website.
