The Libertines have shared the twisted video for their track Heart Of The Matter.

Heart Of The Matter is taken from the band’s first album in eleven years, Anthems For Doomed Youth, which was released earlier this month. The video features whole lot of drugs, alcohol, violence, and sees band members force feeding drugs to some less than consenting individuals.

The single was written about the damage some of the band members have caused themselves throughout their life. Director of the video Roger Sargent explained where the inspiration for the video came from, saying “To that end, when we talked about making the video for the song we all felt it had to be similarly honest. The unsettling subjects could not be shied away from. On the contrary, these had to be faced head on.
