    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]

    This time around, they've added a sprinkling of synths and the occasional Giorgio Moroder pulsebeat, with varying results, but their forte remains well-observed, understated guitar pop.

    Tempos ate slower, moods are darker, moments of infectious pop few and far between. [Jun 2011, p.119]

    Pete and the Pirates are simply the best pop band in the UK. this second album just confirmed that.
    Motorbike, United, Half moon Street, Washing 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
