Briney blackness swam under the soul of each man who called shrunken planks home; a blot the sun, an early grave's curse cried out, "Avast! There's be Bastard's Brine! - four deadly scalawags whose mothers be she-devil whores and whose fathers be wretches from the deep, the same men, no dogs, who scorched lives with reckless abandon, who stole memories and returned nightmare, demons who draught deep the bosoms of fair maidens ripening them with sin. Not mere men, much worse. Much much worse.
--from the stolen journal of Duncan Mcclain 1667
"this record manages to eschew the corniness completely. Instead we are treated to track after track of meticulously produced rock classics. Song of the Siren might be hands down the best punk song of 2008 - George Koroneos, Life in a Bungalo (Apr 16, 2008)
"The band is called Brine + Bastards and is a strange mix of punk/rock and pirate swagger. We don't know much about them, but thought you might like to give it a listen. check 'em out - we like Song of the Siren and The Pilot - noisy, semi melodic and annoying - perfect!" - Sailing Anarchy (Apr 22, 2008)
"Brine and Bastards, whose high energy brand of "Pirate Rock" ("pirate themed" folk/punk ala Shane McGowan & The Pogues complete with swash buckling costumes and salty attitudes) promises to deliver all the brine and barnacles you can handle" - Jersey City List (Dec 01, 2006)
