Their 14th release and a real return to form. Trademark keyboard sound intact, but now they sound like New Order with a dash of Kasabian. Killer base lines and heart felt vocals. Top stuff!

This new Charlatans Album is absolute quality, so many great songs it just keeps growing on me, more and more. Its a new direction for them, but tracks like the "misbegotten" and "bad days" prove its a step in the right direction. Some of Martin Blunts bass lines alone make the album worth having. The last track "this is the end" is a fitting end to what should be, if there was any justice in the music world a chart topping album. The live tracks on the deluxe CD are of a very high quality too, turn it up loud!!! Hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Just listened to it for the first time today. I have been disappointed with the last 2 albums but this proves the boys have still got what it takes. Looking forward to the upcoming gigs. For all true Charlatans fans this is a must buy.
