Despite the successful return of The Libertines, Barat has explained why he’s intent on sticking with the band whose formation only just pre-dated that reunion back in 2014. “There’s a different chemistry and the boys are from a heavier music background so it’s great to let rip a little,” he told NME.
“We’ve toyed with different directions but we want to keep it organic and free.”
The Jackals will now begin a headline UK tour at the Newcastle Think Tank on May 25th, and from there move on to Glasgow, Bristol, Leeds and Nottingham.
