My new favorite band is The Decembrists and I'm sure you'll agree if you

a. Like Pirates, because as Evan says, it really is Pirate Music
b. Like Belle and Sebastian, but wish that they would make more sea-oriented funny songs.

Try "The Mariner's Revenge Song" or "This Soldiering Life" if you want to just listen for a moment before committing fully to loving them so much that you want to give up your life to go to their every concert in full pirate/pirate wench gear.


Also, I think there's something slightly illicit about nodding to your kindly old professor while ODB sings about putting killer ants in your pants and the other parts of that song, all of which are more rude and crude than that one sentiment. Senor Pod has a dirty sense of humor.
