    Thankfully, One Thousand Pictures was well worth the wait.

    One Thousand Pictures is pop in a tar-pit--black and sticky, but wonderfully pure at heart.

    Sounding this simple is not always easy and for fans of pop with depth, Pete & The Pirates are a treat. [Jun 2011, p.100]

    PATP are on no less poppily compelling form with their sophomore LP, but display a new, darkly rocky drive and increased lyrical cynicism. [Jun 2011, p.93]

    Pete and the Pirates are simply the best pop band in the UK. this second album just confirmed that.
    Motorbike, United, Half moon Street, Washi    ng Powder, Winter 1, Little Gun, Cold Black Kitty, Come to the bar, Blood gets thin, Can't fish they are all potential singles. it's amazing how easy is for them to create perfect pop songs. I wish you all the best Pirates, you definitely deserve it… Expand
