Peter Doherty took time out of his busy schedule to sing with PREGOBLIN on ‘These Hands AKA Danny Knife’. On working with Peter, Alex says: “I see Peter's work in line with the romantic poets of the past - not a revelation, but the difference being, Pete can actually do it and invoke those themes, whereas so often others fail. I was also surprised how down-to-earth and funny he was on the first meeting... Peter said to me that ‘These Hands’ was the perfect song for him, ‘I'd written about his life,’ which made me smile.”
