Reason number two why Pete Doherty gets sweated. This is The Libertines' second album from 2004 released shortly before the band melted down and dissolved. It was an instant #1 release in the UK and still stands as solid listen aside from the critical hype. The Clash's Mick Jones produced the album, which is quite obvious after a couple listens. Picks: "What Became of The Likely Lads(1), Music When The Lights Go Out(2), Can't Stand Me Now(3)" and "Last Post On the Bugle(4)." 15 tracks on high quality Rough Trade vinyl.
