The Libertines

Perhaps always doomed to a premature downfall, the Libertines released two full albums during their brief, two year stint. Lead singer Pete Doherty was convicted of the burglary of bandmate Carl Barât's flat in 2003, which as you’d expect formed the catalyst for the band’s demise. However, their Sex Pistols-esque approach to music has left them with a cult status, and rumours of a reunion.
