The Libertines reunion is official - the founding members of the U.K. band have reportedly signed a new management deal.
Rockers Pete Doherty and Carl Barat famously fell out over Doherty's excessive drug use, leading to Kate Moss' ex being booted out of the band in 2004.
Barat went on to form rock group Dirty Pretty Things while Doherty put together Babyshambles - but the two men regularly speak of their intent to eventually work together again.
Earlier this month (Oct09), Barat explained he was too busy to reunite with his bandmates until at least 2011, but the group has now officially reformed after signing a deal with a new manager, according to Britain's Daily Star newspaper.
A source tells the publication, "The Libertines will definitely be back next year."
