The coolest song ever written in the History of Mankind...

The song of which I speak is "Drink Up", and the lyrics are as follows. Read them and realize how absolutely cool they are.

Yes folks, "Pirate Metal" is getting bigger and bigger. Swashbuckle is a fucking hysterical band. They don't take themselves seriously at all (look at how they dress, for fuck's sake, and the lyrics)... but they make some -brutal- metal.

Tell me if this chorus doesn't just stick in your head the rest of the day.

Lyrics to "Drink Up"

Forever again will we hail
Upon this nautical hell, we sail
Through the moonless nights
Across the seas of death, we'll fight

Slash of the saber sword
Lift the curse and be restored
We're pirates!
We aim to kill!
No prisoners - our code fulfilled

Pass the Ale
Pass the Rum
By nights embrace
our bodies numb

Drink up me matey's YO HO! YO HO!
Drink up me matey's YO HO!

Mighty cannon's roar into the sky
Burning chainshot - our foes reply
The Black One's beard is burning bright
A tour of duty of epic might
For honor
For glory
For lore and sacred story
