Salty Pirates' Chestsful of Booty

Terminally winsome Halmstaders/Gothenburgers Salty Pirates return to port with rich booty, chested in a new four-song EP available (along with many more of their songs) for free at their bandsite. I feigned horror last time but can’t keep the schtick up for this post, especially after emerging from a couple hours’ listen with permanent smile lines etched into my face. I was right about one thing: resistance is futile. They'll pet your pussy, serve you pizza, and steal your heart. Arr. . .rrright! Here are "Common Sense," my favorite from the new EP, plus four others from previous caches.

Update: The links below no longer work, but here's "Shark Attack" via Grooveshark.

Salty Pirates: Arrrrrr. . .

. . .rest this briny bunch o' bucs quicker’n ye kin say, “Jack Sparrow.” Oh, aye, they’re cute. Just look at the picture. Coy, cuddly, quirky. But "apparently things aren't ever as they seem." There’s something far more sinister at work here. I will quote from their MySpace site.
"We're an evil genius's crew plotting to take over the world. We have our secret laboratory somewhere in Gothenburg where we conduct all kinds off illegal experiments. And pet little furry cats. We also make our own pizza."
Uh-huh, cat-petting and homemade pizza. Need I say more? World, you've been warned. Do not click on that song down there. Your very soul is at stake. Resistance is futile. Unless, of course, you want to learn their main plan of assault.

Salty Pirates - Shark Attack mp3 - Update, 15Dec08: The group is now called The Weather in Sweden.

As the link to the mp3 no longer works, here's the song via Grooveshark.
