The Libertines by Ed Cooke
The Libertines will release it on March 8th next year.
The Libertines have announced the details of their new studio album All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade.
After the last decade’s reunion brought the 2015 LP Anthems For Doomed Youth, this long-awaited follow-up is being previewed first by Run Run Run; a single Carl Barat has said is about, ‘being trapped, and trying to escape your dismal life, a bit like the man in Bukowski’s Post Office’.
“Our first record was born out of panic, and disbelief that we were actually allowed to be in a studio; the second was born of total strife and misery; the third was born of complexity; this one feels like we were all actually in the same place, at the same speed, and we really connected,” he added.
“We’re over the moon, and the ball is in the back of the net…and I’m chuffed for the lads!,” Peter Doherty concluded.
I feel like we’ve completed a cycle of some kind as a band, and finally now we can add these songs to the set list, because we’ve got some bangers in there. Now we’ve opened the hotel and used the studio ourselves and it’s all worked out – more Libertines records? I should hope so!
