The Libertines officially confirm reunion and release Hyde Park details (ticket links)

The Libertines have this morning officially confirmed that they will reunite for a summer show in London's Hyde Park.

The long awaited confirmation comes after a week of endless speculation and rumours - predominantly fuelled by an array of hints and clues released by both the band members and their social media sites.

One of the last 'hints' to appear on the bands Facebook page. A picture of Julius (July) Caesar - the FIFTH Roman General.

Finally breaking the news just moments ago, the four-pieice wrote on their Facebook page, ''THE GOOD SHIP ALBION IS SETTING SAIL SOONER THAN YOU THOUGHT. We're HEADLINING BST Hyde Park, 5th July.''

Tickets will go on sale on May 2nd but can be pre-ordered as of Monday from The Libertines Hyde Park Tickets Pre-Order.

Late last night, both Georgehenryking.com and Itsallindie.com were some of the first to break the news of the Hyde Park shows rumoured line-up as well as an early reunion confirmation after the following information (see imagine below), was quietly placed on the ticket part of NME.com - who appeared to refrain from publicising it.

Carl Barât says 'keep July 5th free' for potential Libertines reunion show

Carl Barât has subliminally confirmed The Libertines will reunite for a show at London's Hyde Park - after recently suggesting that fans ''keep the 5th July free.''

The Libertines co-frontman is reported to have told Gigslutz that it is now "very much a possibility" that the band will reform.

Talking of the potentional reunion during his recent DJ set at Ladbroke Grove's KPH, Barât allegedly said ''keep 5th July free'', after being pushed for a live show date.

Speculation amongst fans was first initiated over the weekend after a status saying, ‘Albion?’ was shared on the band’s official Facebook page.

The possibility of The Libertines reforming was then made even more likely after an image of Hyde Park was also posted on the London bands social media site.

Carl Barâts comments follow a series of reunion implications from fellow frontman Pete Doherty.

Wolfmother reveal new Material of "WM III"

The australian Rockband "Wolfmother" was spelled "dead" earlier this year, after leadsinger Andrew "The White Feather" Stockdale has released a selftitled debut album wich consisted of smoothier and more classic-rockish songs. He turned up into the studio after kind of "maybe-changing-his-mind" of willing to go further on a solocareer... However. The saga couldn't be ending innit? Wolfmother is and I guess will always be at the top of these days Retro Rocknroll Olymp, reaching many people and still gets hit in the radio. It's not uncommon what we saw on Andrew's Facebook page, that he's updating his fans often with new material. He is active in terms of social medias and informative. And that's good, because we do not like cheeky 2 seconds sneakpeaks or 20 second "there will be an album soon-trailer". Therefore Wolfmother has stolen our hearts from the very beginning and is still careing it like a little badass lotusflower...

The new sounds you can hear on the new video up on youtube (and downhere) is telling you much, and much much more about the band's history in 13'. They seperated themselves of one of the bluesiest guys in our time of history when it comes to Bluesharping. Elliot Hammond has joined the band a bit earlier and left it. Back in america in summer 13' they found a new drummer wich also hasn't got much attention. Left it too. Now one steezy sock, Vinny (former lead guitar) is hitting these Drums. The new sound is aiming for rougher and classier 70's Progrock and even more Psychadelic influences. A matching time baller, as you might call it! I guess I'm right when I say, no one can wait until the new era will begin for publicity of the new piece. Wolfmother III is coming. Brace yourselves, heavy rock'n'roll approaching. Like ever.
