Listen now
Description
An ending fitting for the start. In part 2 of our Libertines double header we find out what happened after the release of Up the Bracket and follow Pete's descent into heroin and crack hell, and ultimately prison.

We mourn the ultimate dissolution of the band but not before releasing their second wondrous album of which we gift you a track by track analysis. Hurry up Mrs Brown, I can feel it coming down and it won't take none too long!
