Grace/Wasteland is a brave exploration into the eye of the hurricane. A stunning new album that goes beyond the news stories and photos that lay bare a man's soul, an excavation of a heart left desolate. Recorded over a month of sessions in autumn 2008 at London's legendary Olympic studios with producer Stephen Street (The Smiths, Blur, Cranberries, Kaiser Chefs), Pete Doherty brings to life a collection of songs, many which have existed since the heady days of the Libertines. Without the guise of Babyshambles or the Libertines to hide behind, never before have we seen Doherty so personal, raw, and vulnerable in his songwriting. Ripe with lyrical insights, Doherty's main themes are present and truthful - his troubles with youth, music, love, and addiction are all revealed.
