i don't understand why people are so hyped about the libertines, i got curious and downloaded a couple of songs, and was totally disappointed, maybe because , from what i've seen of their lifestyle and how they look and their album cover, i was expecting something much "harder", more intense, but instead i found sugary pop-rock, similar to the strokes....

yeah...hmm, i like the strokes too. but i've liked the libertines since before there was so much hype over them. recently people have just been listening to them because of what they've read/seen about pete, thats why everyones expecting something 'harder' but, to be honest, its just the impression hes giving, and its totally not what the libertines are.

well that's exactly what ruined them for me...it's like going to see a movie that's advertised as a comedy and it's acctualy a drama,the movie is ruined because you can't apreciate it as a drama...you're too pissed off...if ya know what i mean...

It's hard to rate all the trendy new wave bands when they sound exactly the same or are ripping off bands that have done it two decades before. The more you depend on reviews, the more your music taste just follows a fad.
