I have been a fan of 'indie' music since the late '80s, I loved what became known as 'Britpop' etc, but it seems to have died a death in recent years. I love good indie albums because when done properly, they have a beginning, a middle and an end, as I feel all great albums should. I was into The Libertines right from the beginning and was very glad to see them back. Lyrically, I feel they are just as important as The Smiths. I have overindulged in 'Anthems for Doomed Youth' since it was released and I can honestly say, it is the best thing I have heard for ages. Beginning, middle and an end? Check; Great lyrics? Check; All the other things that make for a great indie album? Check. What are your thoughts on 'Anthems for Doomed Youth' / The Libertines in general?
