When shambling oxygen-thief Pete Doherty was recently thrown into prison for the grand total of 14 weeks, hecklerspray felt a murmur within our hearts – a rare glimmer of optimism, if you like.
With P-Doh locked away, we reasoned, surely this would see a brief end to his staggeringly bad musical output? Hell: at least it’d be a long enough hiatus to ensure his fans became obsessed with something more entertaining – like watching a puppy slowly suffocate or listening to the mechanical vibrations of the Phillips X300 Bathroom Extractor Fan (man, when that third whirr cycle kicks in, it’s just awesome).
Alas, it was not to be. In a statement that has devastated the ear-owning community, Doherty has decided that prison life won’t stop him churning out his sixth-form garbage. Mind you, seeing as prisons are essentially rife with drug abuse, violent assault and general hopelessness and despair, a couple of new Babyshambles tracks might make the ideal soundtrack.
Standing by their frontman, the other members of Babyshambles have announced their plans:
“We will send Pete the first nine burns (recordings) so he can work on them in there. It will give him something to keep him occupied, keep him focused and remind him that outside we’re all holding the fort for him. And also that as soon as he gets out it will be business as usual.”
Not only that – it’ll give him a fantastic defence mechanism while he’s inside. Let’s face it: if a crack-addled convict with a flick-knife was charging at you, what better method of deterrence would there be than to flash the cover of Shotter’s Nation and yell ‘one step closer and I stick this on the stereo, motherfucker‘?
You’d be like John Gotti in no time.

mithaearon says
I have the start of some lyrics for P’Dohy to use:
“Thinking my fans gives me such hope,
but why oh why did I pick up the soap?”
euclid says
M – yeah!
From his new wondrously wonderful dreamy new
poetical lyric genius hit, “it’s hard/getting clean”
“I scrub my emotions to find what is real, but
The cleaner I get, the dirtier I feel…(ouch)” etc.
mst3kster says
Here’s my bit…
“I never thought my life as such a shameful farce
Until my cell-mate’s hot nob went deep up in my arse.”
The Dread Pirate Sausage! says
I feel bad for drug addicts the world over.
And celebrities looking down the barrel of the Hecklerspray Wit Cannon. Dreadful.

Pete Doherty/Kate Moss Charity Fund
I am willing to contribute a 20 if everyone else is to a fund for these two.
We get a kitty together to buy as much drugs as will fit into two large horse syringes. They each inject the entire amount, overdose, and die, thus sparing us from ever hearing from either again.
Will anyone else contribute?
euclid says
isn’t this why we pay taxes?
tom says
whoever wrote this article is a fuckin douche
mst3kster says
tom, the author is listed right under the title. Also, you forgot to type “LOL” in your unsubstantiated post, you lazy and stupid bastard.
Kez says
Have any of you stupid cunts ever listened to The Libertines ?
C J Davies you really are a uneducated bucket of shit.
munch says
Bah. “uneducated bucket of shit” is lame.
You really have to come up with something like ‘Cunt Joker Davies’ to match the likes of ‘Shit Heritage’.
C J Davies says
‘What A Waster’: fun debut single, best thing they ever did
‘Up The Bracket’: had its odd moments, no classic
‘Don’t Look Back Into The Sun’: good pop song
‘The Libertines’: tedious and shambling
Anything else, noticeably Doherty left to his own devices: unmitigated shite
Hope this has cleared things up for you, Kez.
Kez says
No not really CJ
Its clear that your taste in music is shite and your research of the band poor at best.
Cant stand me now (thats the other song you may of heard on the radio)
If Pete Doherty is so talentless lyrically why was he chosen by the British Council to go to Russia to perform his own poetry at the age of 16.
C J Davies says
The British Arts Council also gave significant funding to the film ‘Sex Lives Of The Potato Men’.
Try to be a bit more analytical, for Christ’s sake. It’ll probably help in the long run.
(‘Can’t Stand Me Now’ was featured on ‘The Libertines’, by the way, which was why I didn’t list it with the other two non-album singles. Hope this has cleared things up for you, Kez).
mithaearon says
In answer to Kez, yes I actually do own all the Libs stuff I actually like them, well most of the band. You can see where to talent is in it. Look at it this way. Pete and Carl split, Carl takes the band (pretty much) and forms Dirty Pretty Things and do some great stuff. Pete forms Babyshambles and release a rambliing pile of shite as the first album. Most of the band get bored and fuck off. Pete gets more guys in and makes an okish second album.
Where was the talent in the Libs? Not with P’Doh.
Kez says
No not really CJ
Waster and dont look back are actuually on the latest Libs album (for your info)
Mithawaron
Ive seen DPT 3 times (love the band but awful on all occasions/and on the verge of splitting)
The second shambles album (except 1 member Patrick Walden whos in rehab) has the same line up ??
liam porter says
how sad that you need to post articles on the internet about people you hate.
surely, you must be in awe of him for you to write so much about him! i’m sure if you actually listened to some songs, you’d warm to him. at least he is doing more productive writing a.k.a lyrics and songs, than your stupid articles, that have to write shite about writers who you think write shite.
how sad.
Mithaearon says
Kez the latest album you refer to is a greatest hits type collection CJ was refering to studio releases.
flierpa says
i think you doherty crusaders are very funny. i’d spell windup for you but then again, maybe you wouldn’t get it. maybe you’d think i was referring to windex and try to inject it.
i really think they should sell essence of pete doherty as a new drug. i’d try a bit (had it been washed before…), maybe. or maybe i’d rather go for a snort of amy winehouse, she seems a bit more into uppy things. or all of the above for a surreal week in drugapalooza.
gir says
How much shite would a shite writer write if a shite writer could write shite?
stinkyfinger says
Thanks Gir, that’s better, I thought for a moment there that people actually gave a crap…and that would have been the final straw.
gir says
“at least he is doing more productive writing a.k.a lyrics and songs”
If you are using the word productive in the sense that a cough is productive when it horks up lots of phlegm, then yes I agree.
euclid says
Liam! Call the fan club! We’ve got a first-class second form red-phone situation here –
Hecklers are out numbering over-earnest puppydog Ballsack Pete fans
by wide margins! It just won’t do! We’re having to resort
to multiple mockings of the same tired post!
We need fresh meat! More fodder, please!
okay!….peace!
Mithaearon says
Going by that facebook thing to get him out of prison, the last time I looked there was only a couple hundred members which to mean says:
* Thats all the fans he has now, which explains their lack of mindless ranting about his “poetic genius here”
* That they must buy multiple copies of his work.
FM says
aha, i don’t understand this website,
it’s made about him, yet most of the articles take the piss!
and the comments, why read it if you have no interest in him?
I reckon it’s a good thing,
+ i can’t wait for another new album, Shotters Nation was amazing.
:) Que the hate replies.
gir says
“aha, i don’t understand this website,”
aha, that is quite obvious.
