Babyshambles compared to John?!
A writer of The South End Newspaper is comparing the music of Pete Doherty’s new band, Babyshambles, to John’s music…
Tuesday marked the release of the new album by Babyshambles, which is Britain’s answer to John Frusciante. Why John Frusciante you ask? Well at one time, lead Shamble Pete Doherty was a member of British punks the Libertines. However, drug abuse forced him out of the band and into a mess of tabloid fodder. In the midst of this, he just so happened to record an album that so defines drug abuse and addiction, much like Frusciante post-Chili Peppers offerings.
