Influences"Tinny, bare-bones and brilliant punk-pop from the new Welsh Wonders."
(The Sunday Times Culture)

"...indie-dance Pirates share a single release this month with Lesser Panda. 'Ear Sex' ,from the single, rocks with a 'fuck you' take on pop - a more garage-rock/pop take on New York's punk-funk grooves, spilling over with jingles, jangles, dance beats, synth growls and stomping stamping riffs whilst 'Discussion', is their more laid back effort, recalling The Sundays or The Concretes.
(Artrocker.com)

"Geeking about like Elvis Costello in 1977 and with the tunes to match"
(The Fly)

"...with 'sexy dancing' lyrics as cheesy as a rat's wedding banquet. And that's not a bad thing".
(Guardian Guide)

"And so as synthetic chemicals ran through my veins and the sun began to set behind the Bedfordshire lowlands, I was greeted by The Innercity Pirates. Coming on like a bastard child of the Arcade Fire, Document-era REM, and, slightly perversely, the Buzzcocks, this Welsh four-piece waste no time in stamping their authority on proceedings. Stand-out track ‘Ear Sex’ is a rocker, and satisfies any pre-requisite for a post-punk mid-1970’s New York sound, while ‘Discussion’ is a more laid-back effort that recalls The Sundays, The Concretes and the beautiful summer day that has just come to a close."
(virtualfestivals.com) 'Till The Cows Come Home - festival review

"Speed Garage Indie... This band writes music thats equal parts spit and polish! songs to scream too, songs to dance too, songs to cry too they got em all and a disitinctive and instantly recognisable voice at the front!!!!"
(NME.com)
