Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Gold

Aye, and what else does a buccaneer need? Except for, of course, a nice pint of mead! Surely ye scallywags knew this line from the song "Over the Seas"!

Answer: Death Before the Mast

"Prepare to rush forth, unleash hell! Cross swords in one final farewell." Perhaps thar be some grog waiting for these buckos in Davy Jones' Locker. "Chronicles of Vengeance" is actually on Alestorm's later album, "Black Sails at Midnight".

3. "With the power of __, he could not fail!" Which alcoholic beverage completes these lyrics?

Answer: Ale

Yargh! Unfortunately, this kind of mentality doesn't always apply to the real world, but it seems to have worked well for the seadog in the song "The Huntmaster". "Up from the bowels of hell he sailed, wielding a tankard of freshly brewed ale."

4. "Raise up your __ and quest into the fight. A reign of terror we shall bring unto our foes this night." Which sailor-favored weapons complete these lyrics?

Answer: Cutlasses

Blimey! Don't these lyrics just shiver yer timbers? Ye would have more luck finding a katana with a Japanese samurai, a scimitar in the Middle East, and a machete in a tropical or jungle setting being used to cut through undergrowth.

5. "Ol' Nancy don't care who comes to her inn. It's a den of debauchery, violence, and __." Which salty term completes these lyrics from "Nancy the Tavern Wench"?

Answer: Sin

"So come take a drink and drown your sorrows.
And all of our fears will be gone till tomorrow.
We'll have no regrets and live for the day,
in Nancy's Harbour Cafe!"

6. "At sunrise we'll all dance the hempen jig. So raise up your pint of rum and take another __." Which drinking term completes these lyrics?

Answer: Swig

Aaarrgh! It seems the curse of Captain Morgan would lead these buccaneers to "dance the hempen jig", or to hang (as rope was often made of hemp) in the song "Captain Morgan's Revenge".

Answer: Wenches and Mead

Avast ye! This song makes a comeback on the successive EP, "Leviathan", this time in German as "Weiber und Wein".

8. Perhaps as homage to their reported country of origin, the lads of Alestorm recorded a cover of this patriotic song: "The Hills are bare now, - And Autumn leaves lie thick and still, - O'er land that is lost now, Which those so dearly held, - That stood against him, Proud Edward's Army, - And sent him homeward, Tae think again." Do ye savvy what song this be?

Answer: Flower of Scotland

"Flower of Scotland", as well as "Scotland the Brave" and "Scots Wha Hae" serve as unofficial national anthems to Scotland, though it lacks an official one. "The Soldiers' Song" is English for Ireland's national anthem, "Amhr�n na bhFiann". Most of Alestorm's members seem to hail from elsewhere in the U.K. than Scotland, but the band is nonetheless regarded as Scottish.

9. "A dreaded curse - Is spoken of By all men of the sea - An ancient tale Of pirate's woe - And sailor's tragedy" Surely a real buccaneer can name the title of this here song.

Answer: Of Treasure

"A map was drawn - By grizzled men
Forgotten years ago - A chest of glory
And mortal sin - The none should ever know"

This be one spooky pirate story of greed and treasure.

Answer: we die.

They "leave [their] fears behind" with "only treasure on [their] minds" in the song "Set Sail and Conquer". I thought the maniacal pirate laughter in this song sounded incredibly convincing.
