The acclaimed 2007 album by Babyshambles, Shotters Nation, captures the longstanding second band led by enfant terrible Pete Doherty and company, at the height of their pop powers. With four songs also co-written by Doherty's then-girlfriend Kate Moss, some of whose live performances also feature on the record, Shotters Nation includes lead singles 'Delivery' and 'You Talk' in its setlist. Both singles, though having invited comparisons to surefire rock greatness over the years - from The Cure to Lou Reed - proffer a sleazy-peasy energy smelted in the furnace of Doherty, Ficek and co.'s collective discontent: "here comes a delivery/straight from my heart of misery", goes 'Delivery', such dour lyrics set against rather thrashy guitars, capturing the bleaker side of the grim thematic coin that also surfaces hedonism and gregariousness on the other - peak Doherty, as stated.
