WHAT??!! Reference the comments about Peter singing 'off key' or having an 'average voice'... Then apparently I LOVE OFF KEY AVERAGE... along w/a whole ton of other fans of his! People are drawn to him BECAUSE he doesn't give an overly polished, mechanical, predictable, boring, cookie cutter performance. He just gets up there and sings his heart out for us - and puts a lot of smiles on a lot of faces with his natural talent. I could listen to him sing allllll day long. SMILES!
Pete's vocals. He has an average voice, but he is a very gifted guitar/vocal writer. The wider audience may not know of these skills. Average radio listener hears a good band and lazy weakish vocals. Live, he is off key a lot. We are in a BAD Simon Cowell World.
There are people that love him so much that they could care less or will make excuses, but the wider audience judges on vocals, and with no knowledge of the band.
I agree with parts of your opinion, but it's a very generalized statement. Also, on what basis do you say he is off key a lot. Do you have studies in music, and if so, what are your credentials?
I have one of my old bands on my page. I was a snare drummer for the University of Alabama Marching Band.
Now I just use a home studio. FL Studio as the host and the regular amount of VSTI's. But I also still play the guitar, bass, drums and Piano at a competent level.
As far as music studies., it's something you're born with and studies have very little to do with It. Being exposed at an early age to music and instruments is crucial. But I did take theory I and II in school.
wait till ya hear this, Rage, chemical bros and Ian brown were all on the same time at oxegen in ireland. I just stuck around for rage but wish i saw brown. Big sound probs with rage
rite my fave band n ive seen them but guys you had the chance to see rage!! rage was the greatest 2 hours of my life! ey but the shambles are fucking awsome!
You guys in England have it so good while here in the states they obsess on rap. All I do is cry. Thanks for posting this. Baybyshambles are devine. Love em.
what guitar is pete playing ?

Answer to being underrated or cult band.
Pete's vocals. He has an average voice, but he is a very gifted guitar/vocal writer. The wider audience may not know of these skills. Average radio listener hears a good band and lazy weakish vocals. Live, he is off key a lot. We are in a BAD Simon Cowell World.

Would be huge in 70's

I've been quite critical of Mik's guitar playing in the past, but I must say he handles himself extremely well in this video.
