Single of the Week: The Libertines
Posted on August 15, 2007Ahh the Libertines. What’s not to love about them? An early ’00’s post punk garage rock revival band with a singer fueled entirely by crack cocaine and heroin. Drunkenly slurred lyrics over bashed out guitar rhythms and banging drums, the bands career blew up and fell apart almost as quickly as their songs did. So this week, I’ma feature a short song by them, “Arbeit Macht Frei“. This song bangs and crashes. Vocalist Pete Doherty drunkenly shouts out verses about hypocrisy and racism in post-war England. That is, if you can make out the words. And the whole thing is done in a minute and thirteen seconds.
