Peter Doherty & the Puta Madres

"Pete's latest is an album of serene folk songs. The former kid in the riot now seems more at home as the old man by the sea ... His drawl is thick and his Arcadian spirit is stamped all of The Puta Madres. If you don't love Pete, then you know you never will. If you do, then here he is a little wiser, with a testament to his knack for a cracking tune and shattered mirror poetry. Away from the chaos, here's a record that cuts to the core of Doherty with a little less noise and a little more love".

"This sensitive, late-Dexys style psych-Celt outfit mould Doherty's numb-tongued half-songs into evocative reflections of their pastoral surroundings, but the album is backloaded with meandering, semi-bothered filler".

"Han har tidligere stået forrest i The Libertines og Babyshambles - med sit nye band, Puta Madres, har skandalesangeren Pete Doherty udgivet karrierens hidtil mest modne album ... Nu har han bandet Puta Madres i ryggen, og på ensemblets første album viser han en ny, bemærkelsesværdigt moden side af sin sangskrivning. Med sangtitlen 'Paradise Is Under Your Nose' refererer Pete Doherty til sin fortid i stoffernes vold, men det er slut med at sjuske for sjuskens skyld. Denne musiker har altid leveret stærke sange, men denne gang får sangene lov til at brænde igennem uden at skulle igennem et filter af skæve toner ... Dette er på mange måder det første album fra den voksne, nu 40-årige Pete Doherty".
