Recording


Captain My Captain was recorded in November 1995 at John and Stu's Place in Seattle, Washington and produced by John Goodmanson.[5] Singer and guitarist Jody Bleyle stated that a lot of her writing on the album had to do with a "physical and emotional breakdown" she had before its recording. At the time, she recalled that the band's focus on politics and self-defense went "far beyond being an obsession", especially during an eight-week tour to support the Free to Fight project.[6]
