Stand up and Fight! It's a totally awesome album (except for Hunting Pirates). Much better than anything they've done before. Just got the special version in the post today :D

Get lost, Hunting for pirates is awesome. Shits all over any other pirate themed metal I've heard. Only really bad track for me is Fear the Fear, that just seems to be a track saying 'man up'.

It's not bad, not at all. Just not one of the better ones. End of an Empire is probably the best song they've ever written (imo).

Aye its class, though I think the choir makes it for me, without that it wouldn't be nearly as good.
Miklaguard Overture is still my favourite track by them though.

My dad doesn't seem to care that the university of Buckingham charges £8000 a year...however their courses are only 2 years long, which is odd but w.e gives me an alright reserve.

Agreed 100%. As well as the obvious hit singles, I've always had a soft spot for "The dancer". But then I like pretty much everything they've done. Even "Beat boy"...

Are they one of the ones that's trialling the idea of cutting three years down to two by taking away the summer breaks?

New Mouse.

It's only a cheapo mouse, but the old one kept either ignoring clicks or registering one click as two and not having those problems anymore makes me happy.
All right, so I MADE a mistake! ONE MISTAKE!
Can't a man start over?! Do I have to keep on PAYING?! HUH?!
Maybe I should make another mistake! ...maybe TWO more!

If it's the one actually in Buckingham, it's only six miles away from me!


Just thought I'd let you know in case of emergency :eyes:
