That's better Pete!!! I bought Down In Albion and must say i was very disappointed with it, there were a few half decent songs like Albion and Killamanjiro, but apart from those, not much to write home about, it sounded like they recorded it 2 hours and mixed it in 2 hours. Shotter's Nation is a completely different story altogether i'm pleased to say. This record could be the turning point in the life of Pete Doherty, which shows just how powerful music can be to some people, a return to from some might say. A few of the tracks on this record remind me of the good old Libertines days, tracks like Carry On Up The Morning and Delivery bring a reminiscent smile ...

A true return to form for Pete Doherty with an album that reminds me of some of those amazing Libertine moments. More polished and produced (not hard!) than Down in Albion with some smart lyrics that bring a smile to you face. Watch out for the Ian Brown lyric 'borrowed' on an album, I won't tell you where! Highlights are 'Delivery' the recent single and also te upbeat 'You talk' as well as 'Baddies Boogie' I am sure there is more to come from these guys but this is well worth a listen and is a true return to form for Pete ...

'Down In Albion' was perhaps the messiest album ever to have been given an official release, an album showcasing 16 tracks that sounded only half finished. Two years on and it seems that things have changed drastically for the band; Pete Doherty seems to be cleaning up his act, and Babyshambles have thus released an album that has been perfectly polished in the form of 'Shotters Nation'. With Stephen Street in charge of the production duties here, the man best known for his work with The Smiths and Blur; it was always clear that this album was going to be a lot more professional sounding than its predecessor. Whilst the previous album was released through Rough Trade ...
