I think, musically, you're doing something different... merging punk
rhythms with funk slap and very socially aware, Anglo-tastic vox is a
unique blend, to say the least...

What sort of music do Pirate Radio play and how did they get this brilliant gig?
Adam: I guess it's rooted in punk but it's been re-worked with quite a modern sound. There are only three of them and they're still dead young, they came through our Battle of the Bands competition and in the first four weeks that I'd been here they excited me more than anything else. Straight after they played I said "I know you know about Giant Drag, if you want to play their show you can do it!"
They were so excited when they turned up here and it was that enthusiasm that I really wanted to harness to the venue and get people excited about coming down here. What I saw in that one band was everything I was looking to achieve, so I'm using that and hoping that they'll tell a lot of other people that there's a venue here with quite an open mind about music.
And this all happened just because they were a young band playing Battle of the Bands. They turned up and played one show and walked out with a gig like this. Things like this can happen - that's the way this industry works.
BBC.com Says ;
Aerosmith, once sang, I dont want to miss a thing. It does make the headline band seem even better when youve had to traipse through the wasteland of not just the support band but the support-support band a bad cover version of something that happened back in Manchester 1995. Pirate Radio the main support band, from Luton, were a lot better. Upbeat tunes in the style of The Arctic Monkeys:
