The Libertines Carl Barat Shares "Glory Days"
The Libertines’ Pete Doherty and Carl Barat did reunite despite their notoriously tempestuous relationship for a few shows earlier this year, but if you were hoping for new music you were out of luck - until just now. Barat’s just shared the next-best thing, new music from his new band the Jackals, assembled in L.A. via online ads after he got frustrated with his own company while writing solo. He’s released a lead single, “Glory Days,” from a record that doesn’t have a name yet, which’ll apparently be out early next year.
Libertines Announce Reunion Show
“I don’t know if I’m supposed to even tell you this," Doherty said in the interview, "but we were offered to reform the Libertines for a show this July in Hyde Park. I got the call just yesterday.” As NME reports, guitarist and co-founder Carl Barât later told U.K. music blog Gigslutz that the chances of the band reuniting were "very much a possibility," suggesting that fans "keep the 5th July free."

Pete Doherty On Heroin, Life in Paris And His New Film
In a Paris attic apartment decorated like a 19th-century dandy's den, a rottweiler snores on a velvet couch and dozens of candles give out a half-light. Pete Doherty kicks an apple core round the living room rug and chats in broken French to a friend on his cracked iPhone. Balzac novels are stacked high on the window ledge.
