I will never understand the appeal of one and the same thing appearing every once in awhile - The Libertines might have had the energy but what makes them better or more unique than any of their contemporary outsider colleagues or past legendary outsiders,... and for god's sake, comparing The Libertines to The Smiths?!?! The beauty and the beast of The Smiths lies in a completely different approach to music (and media) - The Libertines (Pete Doherty especially seem like a bunch of spoiled brats)
Alex Turner says that the Libertines are pretentious and don't achieve something in their music, and the Libertines and Pete Doherty's crowd at their gigs are full of private school kids. Fuck You Alex, Libertines is a band of passion and poetry. Libertines has achived alot more than Arcitc Monkeys. I have seen Pete Doherty live and Im not a fucking private school kid. Alex Turner you are really shit!
british indie is my favorite music of all time.love the LIBS, DPT,AND BABYSHAMBLES...im probablly the the only 16yearold in california that just loves peter dohertys image work {no homo}...rok on!
This is a long shot: Does anyone remember a documentary where they discuss music related to this scene, but goes into The Strokes and The Hives? I've seen it before, but for the life of me, cannot remember the doc's name.
I remember the first time I heard The Libertines (2002) I was 22 and very techno (since Trainspotting) and I just fell in love of them, I became mad, I knew that was something new in music a kind of a new era... so emotional thing!!! I 'm really in love with them, it's something else that music, I love The Smiths too, but how to explain, The Libertines is my generation!!! I just felt like a Beatles fan you know, an hysterical sensation. God save The Libs!!!
I always feel like the only American into them...and then I talk to others, and I have found a few more who knew about them, and lately I've turned on as many people as I can onto them. Great band. I can't get enough. The news that they were getting back together made my life :).
@hungryhippos41 I know what you mean. Been trying to start a band for a while and they are one of my favorite bands and a huge influence on me (especially the rythym section John and Gary are awesome), but when I jam with people where I live and I bring up "The Libertines" Nobody I know listens to them . It's a real shame cause bands like this don't come around often. We're really lucky to see a songwriting duo as talented as Carl, and Pete, much less have them associated with our generation.
Arctic Monkeys are easily in the same league as The Libs, If you were to say The Wombats, Razorlight or any of those other shit bands I'd agree. But Arctic Monkeys are fucking superb.
@BeduffKidAli Who the fuck are you to tell me where music should be placed. Just 'cause they aren't as self destructive as The Libs and aren't in the papers for drugs scandals etc. it doesn't mean there music isn't real, and seeing as The Libertines haven't made anything for 7 years now we can't just all hang around and wait for them to sort their shit out whilst rejecting any other bands that came out after them.
Have you heard anything but 'Dancefloor' or 'Mardy Bum' by the way? Twat.
@JackWMS14 fuck off calling me a div, you think the arctic monkeys are as good as the libertines, teddy picker is a good song, cant stand me now is a class song, name me one arctic monkeys song that is better then cant stand me now? there anit one, name me one arctic monkeys song as good as tell the king, again there anit one. Your a first class queer you gay bellend.
@BeduffKidAli I got an idea, why not talk without insulting people.
As good as can't stand me now? Jeweller's Hand, Afternoon's Hat. Tell The King (not as good as can't stand me now btw)... 505, Too Much To Ask.
I love Libertines and AM equally for different reason. Pete's urban fairytales and Turners kitchen sink, harsh realities are incomparable. Libertines aggressive, chaotic Rock 'n Roll is completely different to AM's tight, thrashing guitars.
@BeduffKidAli Haha, great. I reply to your question in a genuine, polite manner, and because you can't find fault in that you just resort to calling me a cunt.
Nice one mate, you are truly an amazing human being. How do you function in society when someone that has a different opinion in music to you becomes a cunt? I'm not even disagreeing that Liberitnes are one of the finest bands ever, just that AM's are equally so.
PS you pointless homophobia is vile and makes you sound about 11.
@JackWMS14 your smart anit you, and I'd rather act like a 11 year old, then be a cunt, who bird gives out blow jobs for a fiver, with a shit taste in music, fucking gay nerd
@JackWMS14 as well as being a cunt your peado bum nugget, and if you the am are better then the libs then you have a shit taste. FACT you fucking gay twat. go die of aids
@remediopalamente Where did Noel say that was great, you massive tool?? He was trying to explain in his view how the Libertines took excess to the next level as viewed by the his generation...??? What an attention seeking little twat you sound like
Oh my God, the footage from the Albion Rooms is incredible, when the fuzz turn up and they play 'Guns of Brixton' it gave me goosebumps! fantastic band and legacy!
i dont think arctic monkeys compare to the libertines.. libertines so much realler! even tho monkeys are fuckin brilliant just libertines have more true passion for their music
why is this portion of the Jonathon ross version so clean, and all the others are really fuzzy, audibly and visually? it's the best performance i've ver seen of theirs, and i'd love to see a totally cleared up version
Just the person who uploaded it to youtube had a bad quality version. There was a great quality version of it somewhere on youtube but its gone now. Go on the band forums and ask about.
pity about petes smack, a great band who disappeared up they're own arse
