Barat: Libertines nearly killed me

Carl Barat tells NME that finishing off The Libertines almost killed him, though he says he will be a Libertine until he dies.

Carl Barat has told NME this week that the last days of The Libertines were a bit off an effort, but claims that he'll "be a Libertine until the day I die".

The singer said: "Finishing off The Libertines almost killed me. Going around honouring commitments and trying to give every song what it deserved - it wasn't easy. I should have worn a suit of armour. I was doing it for Pete."

What a hero, eh?
