urchin rock

similar to indie rock but with less posing and a lack of personal hygiene ... an indulgence in crack pipes and constant reminders of their working class background also helps define this genre

pete doherty, singer of babyshambles and dominic masters of the others can be said to be the pioneers of urchin rock

"i'm too cool and working class for radiohead i prefer urchin rock ala the libertines, that pete doherty looks like he needs a good wash etc"
