Press Reviews "Each song begins with a special introduction... as well as the sound of the sweeping sea. And although that gets tiresome halfway through the disc, their music is refreshing, humorous and fun." -Metal Rules! Magazine, "During the Pirates' shows, the group's cultish regulars sing along and shout the punchlines to their pirate jokes and limericks, and some even eat the cabbage and limes the band hurls into the crowd--to protect them from the scurvies of course." -CMJ New Music Monthly
