THE LIBERTINES

The Libertines – everyone’s favourite rock’n’roll ragamuffins – are making the best music of their career. Their latest album, *All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade*, entered the Official UK Album Charts at Number One.

They last topped the album chart with their eponymously titled second album in 2004, and a mere 20 years later they have confirmed that they have still got it in spades.

It has been a convoluted and often outright terrifying path from 2002’s chaotic era-defining debut, *Up The Bracket*, to this point. Yet, with *All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade*, their fourth outing together, the quartet have gathered from their new-found homes – variously in France, Denmark, Margate and London – to forge their strongest-ever internal bond and scale new creative heights.

Entitled *All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade* as a dual nod to their hotel’s street address and their enduring love of the early twentieth-century war poets, the album is an unequivocal triumph and a sign that The Libertines are only getting better with time.

The Libertines ended 2024 in style with a sold-out tour of the UK and began 2025 with another sold-out tour of Europe.
