"We popped over to the Pit and Pendulum and accidentally saw some of Alright the Captain, who I wanted to check out and they RULED. They should do the theme music for every TV show in the world! It was kind of metally instrumental stuff with some GREAT outer space noises"- Radiotoothhurty Hockley hustle 08 review
"Bursting onto the stage with a chaotic and frantic disposition were Alright the Captain playing as if encountering some form of demonic possession?....instances of 65 days of static and Battles, i believe could be heard, Arguably a flattering comparison." - SANDMAN MAGAZINE
