Yes I am a big fan of them, seeing them later this april in Southampton and have their first album. They have just released a new album but I haven't bought it yet.

I think the new album is not QUITE as good as the last one, but it is certainly excellent. The duet song with Laura Marl--sumfin is the single.. it's pretty good.

I want them to come to the US. :(

any of you Britons listen to MESH?

a friend of mine is really into them, she's always been into the goth/industrial scene... or darkwave... whatever it is they're calling it these days.

the last time i let her convince me to go to the goth themed night at one of the clubs here in Philly, i heard MESH played at least twice. but that was at least 4 years ago.

Babyshambles are Pete Doherty (from the libertines)'s band. If you've never heard of the libertines download one of their albums asap! If you liked the Libertines, Babyshambles new album's Shotter's Nations well worth listening to.. (don't bother with Babyshambles's first album though its not very good to put it lightly)

In other Doherty-related news looks like hes going back to jail for a few weeks..
