Libertines
The Libertines are a British band who love British culture, drugs, alcohol, sex, and rock and roll. Considered by some to be "the only current band that actually acts like a real rock and roll band" due to their infamously scandalous history. The members are Pete Doherty (notorious adorable crackhead sleazegod) on guitar/vocals, Carl Barat (seedy yet respectable
sex idol with the best hair and arse) on guitar/vocals, John Hassall (more quiet member, favored by
Adam Green, with famous cheekbones) on bass, and
Gary Powell (Sadly sometimes ignored yet absolutely amazing) on drums. The media however, LOVES focusing on the troubles and love-hate relationship of Pete and Carl, thus the other 2 members are hardly seen.

amazing british band who wear red english millitary jackets, headed by a sleazy
sexgod and a
delerious yet completely lovely crackhead poet. with a kickass drummer and skinny cute bassist that shows no emotion whatsoever. who are into
union jack, smoking, girls, secret rooftop gigs,and refrences to herion. who have millions of annoying artsy british teenage girl fans.

British band fronted by
Carl Barat and
Pete Doherty. Their songs often contain traces of The Clash, The
Buzzcocks, The Jam, and The Smiths. Very mythic history and an even more unstable future, it seems. Gayest "straight" band in rock, according to the NME.

NME Magazines 'answer to The Strokes,but they're british,they have
fitter members and better music on a whole'
Pete Doherty is going out with kate moss.
Caros Barat is hanging around with confused looking indie B-Listers.John Hassall has his own band Yeti(quite good actually) and Gary?....

A wonderful British band troubled by drugs and alcohol usage.
Favoured by
Mick Jones of The Clash.
Two members are
homogay*
One amazing drummer.
And a bassist who hardly ever smiles.
