Symphonic metallers Visions Of Atlantis have served the third and final single/video, "Tonight I'm Alive", before Friday's release of the Pirates II - Armada full-length via Napalm Records.
The percussive "Tonight I'm Alive" surprises and captivates with the rhythms of a pirate party on the eve of combat, with the electrifying rumble of a hurricane - a unique, uncharted showcase of talent from Visions Of Atlantis. The song contains an uplifting melody and invites you to conquer the seven seas with Pirate queen Clémentine Delauney and brave captain Michele Guaitoli on a pirate armada.
Pirate queen Clémentine Delauney herself on "Tonight I'm Alive": "We stand on the eve of a dark future, with threats, enemies and clouds gathering in every direction. On the edge of this cliff, staring into the void that awaits us, one could flee, one could lose their mind. We, pirates, we dance. We dance in the face of danger and death. We honor life; we honor our existence. We remember that the purity of our hearts and souls can never be taken away from us. We remember that in this very moment, we're alive. Come what may, we'll dance in the rain".
