Reviews4 stars out of 5 - "Brimming with character, easily surpassing their debut, its energy level like a battery charge.", "The catchy THE LIBERTINES mostly proves the Brits have always taken their pop much more seriously than we ever have.", "Like The Clash's LONDON CALLING before it, repeat listenings reveal an endless succession of gorgeous hooks, spindly solos and tunes to hum forever.", 3 1/2 stars out of 5 - "No band in recent history has better captured the vertiginous experience of falling apart and loving it.", "...This is music to play in dark, velvety, womblike bars; this is music to play while buying cigarettes....If the Libertines represent the first wave of well-Stroked clone bands, we are optimistic..." - Grade: A, Ranked #22 in Uncut's "Best New Albums of 2004" - "Their punk discharges on love, drugs and mutual loathing sound beautifully, if brutally, honest.", Ranked #30 in Spin's "40 Best Albums of the Year" - "Barat concludes this beautiful train wreck with a warm-hearted yet cold-eyed three-song intervention...", Included in Rolling Stone's "50 Best Albums of 2003" - "...The thrill is hearing the Libertines try--not too hard--to keep it together...", Included in Rolling Stone's Top 50 Records Of 2004 - "The Libs still sound like a gloriously combustible rock & roll mess...", Ranked #57 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "The Libertines slap you in the chops like a Francis Bacon painting.", 5 stars out of 5 - "If rock 'n' roll is all about freedom and the consequences that come with that, there's never been a better handbook.", "A Dark, Tense Record, but One Still Crackling with Life."-Grade: A-, 4 Stars Out of 5-"An Extraordinary, Challenging Second Lp, Suffused with Tenderness and Anger...", 4 Stars Out of 5-"...This Lot Splutter like Unsafe Fireworks. They Could and Should Be Huge...", "At their best, the Libertines are a band worthy of the overseas claims that they're the next Kinks or Jam."

Additional InformationThe band's bracing 2002 debut album puts their own raw yet poetic stamp on four decades of British rock history., The 20th anniversary edition of the band's bracing, instant-classic debut album packages it with a raw April 2002 live date.
