What did you say? An actual new original song from Paul and Storm? Is it the End Times?
Nope; it’s just Thanksgiving. (For those of you outside America, Thanksgiving is a US holiday invented by the Cranberry Sauce lobby) It started out as a heartfelt attempt to write a song about the things we are thankful for, and then evolved into…well, let’s just say it took a bit of a turn.
Special thanks to Aubrey Webber from The Doubleclicks for her fine doleful cello work.

That time of year when we all exclaim, “Are you KIDDING me? I haven’t even taken down my Halloween decorations, and this stupid store already hauled out the tinsel and Bing Crosby music?”
Sadly, the decorations actually started weeks ago. But here’s a freebie from the back catalog to ease your pain…

This year at PAX Prime, we had the privilege of being official bards for the Acquisitions Incorporated Live Dungeons & Dragons game, featuring Penny Arcade honchos Mike Krahulik and Jerry Holkins (playing as Jim Darkmagic and Omin Dran, respectively), Wil Wheaton (Aeofel Elhromanë), Scott Kurtz (Binwin Bronzebottom), and with Dungeon Master Chris Perkins (from Wizards of the Coast).
Now, by popular demand, we’ve recorded several of the songs and music cues we wrote for the adventure, and are making them available to YOU, the D&D/Penny Arcade-related-music-hungry public!
“These Four Men” – Zeppelin-esque adventure theme, with more than a dash of Tenacious D. Even if you have no idea what we’re singing about, this will be your NEW FAVORITE SONG!
“Critical Hit” – jaunty victory song to accompany the choicest attacks!
“Jim Darkmagic” – so ominous, it’ll give you nightmares for a fortnight!
All songs are written and performed by Paul and Storm except as noted: drums and kickass organ on “These Four Men” by Brendan Milburn; lyrics to “Oath of Emnity” by Wil Wheaton; extra-spooky high wailing on “Jim Darkmagic” by Marian Call.
The hundy-teenninth episode of our podcast, Paul and Storm Talk About Some Stuff for Five to Ten Minutes (On Average), is now online.
This week’s episode: technical difficulties; getting excited about astronaut ice cream; Paul’s extra-cheese calibrations; the joy of Radio Shack, vacuum tubes, and that ozone smell; direct brain image injections; slack-key slidewhistle and other pop music delights; the death of horn sections; the death of dance crazes; freedom to waggle your genitals; and recommending Marian Call, Ernie Cline, and more Breaking Bad.
