I've seen the Libertines live but without Pete and i saw Babyshambles a couple of times years ago. None of these gigs were terrible, they were alright actually but I dont own any Libs stuff (even though i've heard all of it) and I only have the first Babyshambles album which isn't very good. Musically I dont think either band have exactly been groundbreaking in any way but I don't think they are terrible. I also think that whereas Pete Doherty is no genius songwriter, that he's a better songwriter than he gets credit for.
So as indifferent as I am to his music, I do think the guys a bellend and would probably benefit from a quick swipe for sure. |

^Say the same about (or take it away, i guess) Oasis when they released Definitely Maybe but yeah I think The Libs did come a long with something that may not have been groundbreaking but was solid and breathed some life into a stale mainstream British Indie scene at the time. Then they failed to capitalise on it and became quickly boring.
Basically, i've nothing against the mans music, he's just a fuckwit. |

I dig both of The Libertines' albums on some level, although I'm not in love with them by any means. However, regardless of their quality of work, Peter Doherty is still a major-league douche who could use a good head-stoving, which is totally a word after all.
