Okay, Maybe they have thier place and based on the previous reviews its good to see that they have a faithful fan base. Yet I thoroughly disliked this album. It was a bit like old (very British) 2-tone ska with an overdramatic Nick Cave / Captin Blackbeard as the vocalist. I appreciate it for being a "new" genre. But please don't advertise it as something its not. Ther are a few interesting dub reggae bass lines, and otherwise its worth having if your into very cockney, very campy pirate drinking songs. But if you are looking for atmospheric and emotional folk... Don't buy this.
