Shotter’s Nation - Bravo Mr. Doherty and Co.
I understand a lot of readers couldn’t care less about this sort of post, but it’s my blog you soul sucking monsters. 
A while back I posted about how I anticipted the new Babyshambles album to sound
I wasn’t far off. The album has been received very well as I predicted, and it’s an overall good album, a lot more steady and better produced than their previous work. However, I said the album would be lacking in major anthems, but I was wrong here.
The album is seriously a credit to the lads. Pete Doherty (vocals and guitar) obviously, but not to forget Mick Whitnall (new lead guitarist), Adam Ficek (drums) and Drew McConnell (bass).
I downloaded the album pre-release, but actually went and bought it too, and got the version with the dvd, which includes some live performances too. It’s a great album, and well worth giving it a listen. Babyshambles are a very versatile band, with a lot of punky songs, then all of a sudden you’ll hear a jazzy number with Drew using an old double bass. It’s rare to find a band like that these days. So though most will despise them based solely on Mr. Doherty’s escapades, I highly recommend this band to anyone with an ear for music.
