London indie-rock act Babyshambles have unveiled the video for ‘Nothing Comes to Nothing’, the first single from their upcoming third studio album, ‘Sequel to the Prequel’
The video blends live footage from the bands July concert at Paris’s Place de la Republique with documentary-style clips of their tour exploits.
Originally formed by famed vocalist and songwriter Pete Doherty during an enforced break from his original band, The Libertines, Babyshambles released their first album, ‘Down in Albion’ in 2005, and have performed intermittently ever since, though have occasionally struggled due to Doherty’s well-publicised issues with substance abuse, and subsequent time spent in rehab or prison. They released their sophomore album, ‘Shotters Nation’ in late 2007, and after a brief period of touring, went on hiatus in 2008, with Doherty pursuing a solo career.
‘Sequel to the Prequel’ will be the bands first release in six years, as well as their first with drummer Jamie Morrison, who has previously played with Stereophonics, after original drummer Adam Ficek quit in 2010 to focus on his side-project Roses King Castles.
‘Sequel to the Prequel‘ is due for release on the 2nd September.
