New Jersey’s pirate thrash armada SWASHBUCKLE have released the first episode of the second season of their Ask The Admiral series. This time around the Admiral won’t present new records but tells all you scallywags how to become a real pirate.

Check out the footage below.

Swashbuckle recently parted ways with drummer Captain Crashride. A new replacement has already been found with skinsman Bootsmann Collins. Frontman Admiral Nobeard comments: "Ahoy scallywags and asshats! There's been a bit of a change in the 'buckle rank as of late. We have recently parted ways with drummer Captain Crashride. He brought us five years of service and utter shenanigans, and we wish him nothing but the best in combating that extreme outbreak of scurvy. With that being said, we now have a new drummer stepping up to fill the boots and more so to speak, and that man be none other than Bootsmann Collins. He's a fucking killer drummer and quite the retarded pirate. So we couldn't be more stoked to have him aboard. So please give him a warm welcome with yar internet shit-talk and utter disgust for everything piratical. We wouldn't have it any other way. Eat a bowl of fuck! Check out the bootsmann's other band as well – WE ALL HAVE DAY JOBS."
