i've seen your band, i hate your band...

If you are a regular reader of this blog, it is more than clear that I am a huge Libertines/Pete Doherty fan... and yes, that includes Babyshambles and Dirty Pretty Things. I am constantly looking for Libertines influenced bands... searching through MySpace, NME, Drowned In Sound, Last.fm, etc. almost everyday to look for that Libertines sound. Last week, I came across a band from Sheffield, England called Little Man Tate. Although not even close to the fantasticness of The Libertines, Little Man Tate is without a doubt, a Libertines influenced band. Their new record, About What You Know has a similar carefree and witty style as The Libertines. Unlike many want-to-be Libertines sounding records, About What You Know does not become boring or repetitive. In fact, it features more than a handful of extremely memorable songs. If you feel like listening to a fine Brit-rock album, make sure you check out About What You Know, you will not be disappointed!
