Our Take

The Charlatans have returned with their latest album, Playing In The Hall, and let me tell you, this is not just music - this is a spiritual experience. From the moment the first note hits your ears, you are transported to a place where time stands still and all you can do is let the music wash over you like a warm bath.

The band's signature blend of Britpop, alternative rock, and a sprinkle of psychedelia is on full display here, with frontman Tim Burgess' soulful vocals leading the charge. The album kicks off with the infectious groove of "Lost In The Post" which sets the tone for what's to come - catchy hooks, irresistible melodies, and lyrics that will make you ponder the meaning of life.

Tracks like "Chasing Rainbows" and "Just When You're Thinkin' Things Over" showcase the band's ability to craft songs that are both introspective and uplifting, while still maintaining a sense of cool detachment. The instrumentation is top-notch, with jangly guitars, swirling keyboards, and a tight rhythm section that keeps the energy levels high throughout.

Playing In The Hall is a testament to The Charlatans' enduring appeal and their ability to stay true to their unique sound while still pushing boundaries. So grab a cup of tea, put on your best dancing shoes, and let The Charlatans take you on a journey you won't soon forget. Trust me, you won't want to miss out on this musical masterpiece.
