Exclusive Carl acoustic performances from Rolling Stone:
Pete Article In The Independent:
Doherty describes his childhood as strict and lonely. "I had no choice really but to disappear into myself, just veering between old, flickery episodes of Rising Damp, Tony Hancock radio shows, Emily Dickinson, flowers and QPR."
Observer Review by John Harris:
If Doherty's troubles form the album's plot, they're also its apparent undoing. In keeping with the abiding sense that it's been left unfinished, it has some of the worst guitar solos ever put to tape, distractedly mumbled vocals, and songs that promise much, only to flop into aimless underachievement. The band's sense of careening power - their ability to somehow encapsulate the condition of being ragingly drunk - only occasionally appears. Tellingly, its most convincing manifestation is in 'Narcissist', sung by Barat alone.
Pete's "Denial Band" Hits The Road (NME):
The band--currently featuring Doherty alongside Patrick Walden (guitar), Drew McConnell (bass) and Gemma Clarke (drums)--are also planning a new single, 'Kilimanjaro'.
