Pirate metallers ALESTORM will be setting sail to North American waters once again, touring the United States and Canada this month and next as direct support to EPICA. The 28-date tour begins on October 23rd in Washington, DC and concludes November 24th in Baltimore, with three headlining Alestorm shows along the way.

Also joining the tour will be INSOMNIUM, SYSTEM DIVIDE, and DESTINY POTATO.

Freewheeling frontman/keytar-player Chris Bowes had the following to say: "Ahoy there, you bunch of filthy North American pirates! This fall, ALESTORM is gonna be coming back to your shores for a huge-ass party and maybe a few shows, if we manage to stay sober long enough. Last time 'round during the Paganfest USA tour, we had a hell of a lot of fun, and this one is gonna be even better! Prepare to have your presidential elections ruined, and our sweaty scurvy-infested testicles smeared all over your Thanksgiving dinners! See you soon!"
