New Music from Pete and the Pirates
It’s been two years since Pete and the Pirates released Little Death, so personally, I’ve been waiting for them to hook us up with something new. As a Christmas special, the band have leaked a track from their forthcoming album, which is untitled, yet slated for a May 2011 release. The rhythm in the single, “Winter 1,” definitely has a solid driving beat to it, giving the track a hell of a kick. Vocals sound a touch like the Mystery Jets, which doesn’t bother me by any means. It seems they’ve definitely been honing their chops in the absence, and I can’t wait to hear more of the soaring melodies from the group as we get closer to the release date.
