Centred around the songwriting partnership of Pete Doherty and Carl Barat, The Libertines have attracted much controversy and tabloid headlines because of the tempestuous relationship between Doherty and Barat and Doherty's jail sentences and wild lifestyle. They have also produced three albums of classic alternative rock, 'Up the Bracket' (2002). 'The Libertines' (2004) and 'Anthems for Doomed Youth' (2015). These photographs of Doherty and Barat were taken by Andrew Twambley at a gig at the Msnchester Academy on their latest tour on the 6th December.
