“As long as we enjoy playing music together, then thats what I want to do.”
– Gary Powell
The Libertines have had a tough time during the past couple of years. After breaking out with their first song, “What a Waster,” they quickly descended into a Behind the Music-like hell when their frontman Pete Doherty became a heavy drug addict, nearly causing the breakup of the band.
But thats all behind them now; They’re releasing their latest self-titled album and it’s their best one yet. I got a chance to talk with Libertines drummer Gary Powell.
