Sunset on the Golden Age

High-octane pirate metal featuring aggressive keytar leads, rowdy tavern choruses, and unexpected chiptune flourishes. A maximalist celebration of nautical chaos.

August 1, 2014 · Napalm Records

A riotous, high-seas adventure that balances aggressive power metal with a tongue-in-cheek party atmosphere.

Moments Worth Listening For

The sudden shift into a high-speed 8-bit chiptune breakdown during 1741 (The Battle of Cartagena).

The massive, stadium-ready gang vocal hook that anchors the drinking anthem Drink.

The eleven-minute title track's transition from cinematic orchestral swells to blistering thrash riffs.
