Pirate Prude is the debut EP from American indie rock band Helium.

[4][5] It was released March 8, 1994, on Matador Records.

[6] Its subject matter concerns prostitution.

AllMusic wrote that the EP "is an uncompromising introduction to Mary Timony's mix of radical feminism and warped pop sensibilities.

"[1] Trouser Press wrote that "Timony’s wavering guitar shimmers and undulates across the surface of 'XXX' and 'OOO,' songs that are every bit as distinct as those titles would indicate.
