Define The Libertines Meaning

The Libertines
Ostensibly an English band comprised of four members but only two are ever seen: look up Carlos Barat and Pete Doherty. They sail on the Albion towards Arcadia on their quest to save rock n'roll. They used to hustle.

My name is John and I'm in the Libertines; get a microscope.

By Geneva
The Libertines
A British band that captured the hearts and mind of a whole NME reading generation during the 00s.
Led by two men so close they were possibly bottom sexual, Peter Doherty and Carlos Barrat,The Libs recorded two albums before sailing off down Ol Albion but leave a rich legend which will grow when Pete Doherty dies of smack overdose,which seems to be inevatble.
Libertines fans are notoriously obbsesive and will punch you if you so much sneer at their beloved band.
Pete went onto front the pathetic Babyshambles,Carl and ex-Libs drummer Gary formed the sexy Dirty Preety Things and John (ex-guitarist) with Yeti.
Unsurprsingly,none of them are as good as The Libertines.
Some people are still hoping for a reunion. :)

The Libertines were awesome. As was watching Pete And Carl make out,as they sometimes did during shows.Mmmmm...

The 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.

The Libertines' music is reminiscent of The Clash, The Jam, and even some reggae. One album was produced by Mick Jones of The Clash. Their songs are deep, dancy, melodic, and of course, oh so sassy. Go do yourself a favor and listen to these beautiful British lads.

The Libertines
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.
