The band definitely hit their mark with this album, surpassing anything Pete Doherty did with the Libertines. Putting aside Doherty's heroine antics and infamous relationship with Kate Moss, you've got to give it to the guy for making fantastic music through it all. His wildly outlandish character is what drives the band's sound and his unmistakable persona makes each song on this record a brilliantly eccentric masterpiece that perhaps could only have been conceived from the mind of a tragically dysfunctional drug addict.
Highlights...
UnBiloTitled - beautiful song, honest and infectious, there is just something about the guitars in between the chorus that is simply magnificent.
Baddie's Boogie - an overall cheerful & carefree song juxtaposed with the bridge of "lousy life for the washed up wife of a permanently plastered pissed off bastard". Brilliant.
There She Goes - jazzed out base rhythms with Doherty's vocals some how managing to be delicate and brute all at once.
Side Of The Road - put this song on, and dance like mad in you're room to let loose some steam.
The Lost Art Of Murder - hauntingly beautiful.
