Return of Helicopterman Review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Like most neo-punk bands of the '90s, Seasick Pirates interprets punk's rallying cry of doing your own thing as being given freedom to be as loud, obnoxious and drunken as they wanna be. In other words, it's post-alternative frat music, one that's more concerned with making noise than saying something. Seasick Pirates aren't bad -- they can play their three chords with fast, reckless abandon and shout their lyrics with enthusiasm -- yet there's very little to distinguish them or their debut The Return of Helicopterman from the legions of punk revivalists that cluttered the mid-'90s.

 

There is an extra track on this release, and it is not included in the track list. - Blogatrix
