Pirate Love

PIRATE LOVE at João Carvalho Mastering Studio. Sat, Jun 20. nxne.com Rating: NNN


One member of Oslo, Norway’s Pirate Love showed up to play at the early-evening NXNE party wearing a sari and fez, another came in a Mexicano poncho, another in a cowboy hat. And then the New York Dolls-referencing outfit played the most snarling, adolescent punk of the festival.
