The song&#8217;s about not staying ahead of the law. This fella doesn&#8217;t really know why his mate\u2019s dead, but he&#8217;s got a feeling his mate had it coming to him. He fucked with the wrong people, and he stole something he shouldn&#8217;t have, and he got stabbed. So, he&#8217;s angry and hurt and he has to go and get revenge, so he does and that&#8217;s it for him, basically. Once he has stabbed the lad who stabbed his mate, that&#8217;s it for him. He lashed out in revenge and he knows they\u2019re coming to get him and he&#8217;s not even going to try and run because he knows he&#8217;ll just be running forever.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Carl<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>\u201cI started writing a riff and it ended up sounding a bit like Swan Lake, and everyone went, \u2018Yeah!\u2019 Then we got Peter\u2019s theremin player in which took about a day to get in tune, then he played that sequence and it worked beautifully.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cThe idea of getting carted off for ten years is horrendous\u2026 the condemned man dies 1000 times.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-scaled.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23738\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-1024x683.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-768x512.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-1536x1024.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-2048x1365.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/1.-The-Libertines-2023-Photo-Credit-Ed-Cooke-1140x760.jpeg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>The Libertines\u2019<\/strong>&nbsp;first new album in nine years, is released on 8<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;March \u201924 through EMI and isavailable to preorder here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thelibertines.lnk.to\/AQOTEEPR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/TheLibertines.lnk.to\/AQOTEEPR<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All Quiet On The Eastern Esplanade<\/strong>&nbsp;features eleven new&nbsp;<strong>Libertines<\/strong>&nbsp;songs and was produced by Grammy-nominated producer Dimitri Tikovo\u00ef (The Horrors\/Charli XCX\/Becky Hill) and recorded at The Albion Rooms in Margate.
