The Pete & The Pirates new 7" is in. It's just arrived about an hour ago in fact. It's that hot off the press. It's called 'She Doesn't Belong To Me' and it's in a nice picture sleeve all numbered of 1000 copies. I kind of like this band.... in fact I'm pretty much the only one here who does though I think Brian likes the odd tune. This is one of their tunes which doesn't sound like Franz Ferdinand. It's just great indie guitar pop music which is reasonably short so it doesn't outstay it's welcome. Nice jangly guitars and the song builds up in energy to the end where it ends up being all anthemic and it just stops dead. Just like that. Short songs rule...
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
After the across the board critical acclaim their debut album Little Death received upon it’s release in February, Pete and the Pirates return with one of the LP’s highlights, She Doesn’t Belong To Me.Clocking in at under two minutes long, She Doesn’t Belong To Me is like a slice of classic pop from the golden age of Spector and Telstar, but as re-imagined by five, wide-eyed romantics from suburban England in 2008. Little Death, the debut album is out now.
