Before Arctic Monkeys, there was The Libertines - the band who kickstarted the indie revolution and were at the genesis of #indiesleaze two decades ago. What followed was a riotous mix of outrageous talent, devoted fans, and escapades that made the band and its members perfect tabloid fodder.
 
This podcast is a trip back to where it all began; a peek behind the scenes of the Libertines era-defining debut album 'Up The Bracket', hosted by Radio X’s Sunta Templeton.
 
In intimate one-on-one interviews, the boys in the band reflect on the highs and lows before the sell-out shows, before the world tours, before the headlines and before the fall outs. From the first gig to the moment they felt like they’d ‘made it’. The inspirations behind the songs and the stories never heard before.
