90s singer is making a comeback with their band after a decade apart.

It seems that a Babyshambles reunion could be in the works! Lead singer Pete Doherty has confirmed that the band is planning to get back together, just in time for their debut album's 20th anniversary. For those who may not be familiar with the band, they were formed in the early 2000s after Pete's departure from The Libertines due to his struggles with drug use and subsequent arrest. In 2005, they released their first album, Down in Albion, which quickly became a top 10 hit.

The original lineup included Drew McConnell on bass, drummer Dr Adam Ficek, and guitarist Patrick Walden, who was later replaced by Mick Whitnall. However, in 2014, The Libertines reformed and Babyshambles went on an indefinite hiatus. But now, Pete is ready to reunite with his bandmates. "It is on the cards," he told NME. "We will get back together and get in a room with the instruments and play through the old songs, then get on stage and do it."

Of course, there are still some details to work out, such as who and when the reunion will take place. But Pete is confident that they will figure it out next year. Babyshambles faced several lineup changes over the years, as Pete and other bandmates' drug use caused tension within the group. In fact, original drummer Gemma Clarke left the band in 2005 after disagreements with management.

Despite their success on the charts with hits like "F**k Forever," "Killamangiro," and "Albion," the band was known for their chaotic and wild rockstar lifestyles. This often led to some mishaps, such as when they were set to open for Oasis, but Pete couldn't make it back to the UK after attending Kate Moss' party. As a result, the Gallagher brothers pulled Babyshambles from the tour.

During their 10 years together, Babyshambles released three albums, all of which charted in the top 10 in the UK. Their last album, Sequel to the Prequel, was released in 2013, with Stereophonics' drummer Jamie Morrison replacing Adam. The Cranberries' Stephen Street also worked with the band on this record, but he admitted that Pete was not in the best state during the first few weeks. However, he was determined to make it work and didn't want to let down the rest of the band.

Pete has been very open about his struggles with addiction in the past. In fact, he recently revealed that he has given up his "main poisons" and is trying to lead a healthier lifestyle. He was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in February, which made him realize that alcohol, cheese, and sugar were just as harmful as his previous "poisons."
