Legends: Pete Doherty & The What Became Of...




When energy flows unnoticed, through deconstructed post-punk, or any other form, analysis falls short.

Imagine reducing rock music to its most basic parts, and re-gluing it back together, on a lot of fashionable drugs. Yes, this niche is necessary outside of Doherty’s celebrity.

Here is a musical and imagic tribute to Pete Doherty. As a songwriter, he’s headed The Libertines and Babyshambles. Here are appropriate proportions of each.
