BETH DITTO has admitted that she suffered from depression after recording Gossip's fourth album.
The singer compared the experience to post-natal depression.
She said: "After we made the record, I had some post-natal depression. I really felt like I'd given birth to a baby and was really sad that the baby was out of my body. It was really, really intense.
"Now I'm looking forward to putting the baby in clothes and giving it a really cool name and taking pictures of the baby."
But she said there were some positive aspects of the experience, and added: "It was awesome to make and I'm so excited it's finally out."
The Gossip release Music For Men on June 22.
