Time For Heroes The Best Of The Libertines by The Libertines

Released: Oct 30 2007

Bringing together the tracks that defined a generation and sold a million records, produced by The Clash's Mick Jones from their epochal debut 'Up The Bracket' and feted, self-titled follow-up (and No. 1 album), 'Time For Heroes' is a timely reminder of the unique talent of Albion's favourite sons Pete Doherty, Carl Barât, John Hasall and Gary Powell.

Rough Trade's Geoff Travis and Jeanette Lee; "The Libertines were the best and most influential band of the last decade, please forget the hype and just listen to the music."

The collection includes the classic singles; 'Can't Stand Me Now' (No. 2 single), 'Time For Heroes', fan picks; 'What A Waster' 'Boys In The Band' and live favourites / b-sides 'The Delaney' and 'May Day' (full tracklisting below).

'What A Waster' The Libertines' debut, in-between album single 'Don't Look Back Into The Sun' plus accompanying b-sides 'Mayday' and a re-recorded Death On The Stairs respectively, have not previously featured on any album, and were produced by Bernard Butler.
