Anyone hrd any of their stuff yet? Just herd that one single that made the top 10, sounded just like standard Libertines guff. Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: sonicyouth on Wednesday, February 23, 2005, 18:37:36 PETE DOHERTY FUCK OFF
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: McLovin on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 09:40:03 I saw them in Frome a few months back. He was sober as a judge as his mum was there and he wanted to put on a good show for her (or something like that).
I thought they were a good little band, but then again, i never saw The Libertines live. Watched John the Libertines bassist band Yeti in Bristol at the Louisiana the other night, and they too were an enjoyable little band. Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: yeo on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 12:13:40 I like the Libertines and I quite like Doherty .

Everything has influences its the way of the world.Theres nothing you can tell me about musical snobism pal Ive been there and worn the Im so cool T shirt.But I have now grown out of it ,as I expect you will :old Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 13:01:52 haha yeh i suppose so. ive not got a problem with people liking the libertines its just the fact that i hate pete doherty so much and i dont really like the music the libertines play
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: yeo on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 13:05:16 The reasons I like Pete Doherty
1-He makes good pop music 2-He takes shit loads of drugs 3-He shags supermodels What do you want from your Rock stars these days ? Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 13:07:01 Quote from: "Yeovil Red" The reasons I like Pete Doherty hmmm i suppose he is the most "old fasioned" classic rockstar about at the moment. didnt kate moss dump him?1-He makes good pop music 2-He takes shit loads of drugs 3-He shags supermodels What do you want from your Rock stars these days ? Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: yeo on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 13:09:13 Well yes and he's off the drugs but that sort of ruins my point a bit :(
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: oxford_fan on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 14:16:09 the beatles were a bit commercial too, rich.
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: melksham_exile on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 14:48:58 Libertines are class
Razorlight are overated Franz Ferdinand are the most overated band going (apart from Keane!) The Zutons rule! I could go on for ever. Pete Doherty is a legend. After being in crappy desk jobs doing customer services, being shouted at 5 days a week and having such a mundane existence since the age of 16, a life of hard drugs, brawling and a string of girls that idolise you sounds pretty good to me! Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: melksham_exile on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 14:52:17 And just a question Rich, what music do you listen to that isn't commercial then?
Gangta rap I'm guessing Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 15:04:22 Agreed that Razorlight are over-rated as are FF. Don't like the Zutons or the Libertines either (just preference in music that's all).
But is anybody bored with this Pete Doherty shite in the media all of the time? I'm as bored with it as Posh & Becks really! Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: janaage on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 15:06:52 Rich is gonna hate me then, I like The Libertines, Foos, Feeder, You too, Mando Diao (little known swedish band), Del Amitri, Travis, I love it all dudes. I even like A-ha back in the day.
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 15:10:15 I think Pete Doherty is a fantastic lyricist/poet, but this bollocks in the paper just pisses me off. I think that's why people start to resent the music.
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: sonicyouth on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 15:32:26 One slight problem there Yeovil, Pete Doherty doesn't write good music. It's all shite.
Nice one on Kate Moss, though... Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: McLovin on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 17:05:43 A bit harsh there, i think he is a talented poet and lyricist.
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: yeo on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 18:01:25 All this poet talk is a bit wanky as well.
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 19:27:21 but that's his roots Yeovil, he did start by writing poetry
Title: you couldn't script it... Post by: Dazzza on Thursday, February 24, 2005, 20:06:59 Not that I'd go far out of my way but I'd go and see both the Libertines and the blank faced squib play live as that's where a lot of people claim they are at their best.
Downloaded the Libertines album and it's pretty average stuff really. Couple of decent tracks but nothing exceptional, herd a lot worse but herd an awful lot btter. I think the whole lyrics thinks is a bit much chaps. it's certainly better than a Mallet number but again nothing exceptional. Can't say really blank face himself is a much of a decent rock and roll man either. I have met a few smack heads who are much more entertaining and have in all likelihood probably shafted Moss up the starfish as well. All down to taste at the end of the day. :arrow: Title: you couldn't script it...
