Firstly: the updates I planned to write aren’t happening for a week or two. Basically, the RPM Challenge happened. I’m spending the entirety of February holed up at home, turning my living room into an impromptu recording studio and with ten songs to write in four weeks my free time has vanished like smoke. So here’s some pirate metal instead.

I’m really enjoying Mouretsu Pirates though – it’s a bit slow but the characters are engaging and it has this don’t-take-me-seriously vibe that I can’t bring myself to dislike. Sadly the opening theme doesn’t do much for me, so I kinda wish Alestorm had been tasked with performing it. Thanks for reading – and for the commenters, thanks for commenting – and seeya in March. Hopefully with an album’s worth of original music under my belt. Yarrr~!
