Walking into the cockpit in leeds having just turned 18 and being greeted by this inside. I’d thought clubbing was just dance music and cheese. Finding a place with like minded people was truly mind blowing stuff.

I am forever grateful I was able to see them live at venue with 50 people in the crowd when they first toured the states. They played as if there were 10,000 people. One of the best shows I've ever seen. Saw them a couple years later without Pete. It was good, but not the same

@I say shotgun, you say wedding Tabitha Denholm. One half of Queens Of noise, Mairead Nash the other half whos wearing the police hat and later went onto a music carrear discovering and managing Florence Welch/Machine. Both hung out in the east/north london hipster party scene of the time and hence friends of the band. Mairead was the muse and inspiration for Razorlights/Jonny Borrells Golden Touch.

[@ishuliao]

His singing rambles through the music and makes me think of the typical mumbling that Jarvis Cocker do in his songs, but their tunes are far different and both attractive.

Completely agree mate! Those two bands sparked the music scene I know and love today!

[@tastemaker_87]

Indie bands from this era had the music video down to an art. I remember seeing this, pj Harvey's "good fortune" and white stripes "hardest button to button" all on MTV2. Way back when indie music was still authentic and the video actually complemented the song (so much cooler than the corny Hollywood style videos of the nineties) It was like a microcosm of indie culture that only lasted a few years.

[@miriaminthemiddle]

Exactly. I feel lucky to have been a fan during my formative years, but gosh I miss it! And am sad that so much of it seems to be forgotten/underrated looking back.

The Libertines influenced me as a teenager alot. Sometimes, I would want to emulate my heroes, borrow from their rebelliousness, you know? It got to fever pitch sometimes, I was at a point when I would drink a can of Pepsi just before bedtime, for the buzz!
