The question of the Libertines and romantic(ized) suicide is an interesting one, actually -- all their inspiration was on the Critical Thinker side, but they seemed to have drawn a Party Hard lesson from it. I think the spectre of actual suicide was too real for them (I do touch on this in the OWOB gig), and also at this point the path is too well trodden to be one of intentional failure out of life as a moral stand, surely? You also have a shot at becoming a rock star. That's probably the problem with that side of things, on the whole.
