Parlophone takes gamble on Babyshambles
Maybe Parlophone is buying Pete Doherty's claims that he's trying to get sober. More likely, they just want to be there to cash in when the poor bastard finally OD's and becomes this generation's icon for dissafected, misunderstood youth everywhere. Either way, the label has signed Doherty's Babyshambles to their Regal imprint. The band is supposedly set to start recording The Blinding EP which will see release this November.
Curious as to what ever happened to their Rough Trade deal? Well, apparently that deal expired because the label couldn't figure out a way to get in contact with Doherty in order to renegotiate. Bodes well for Parlophone...
