The Charlatans' fourteenth album, We Are Love, keeps the flame alight with joy-sparking tracks.
“This is the place/These are the days,”
sings Tim Burgess on the title track. The album features a strong line-up of producers, including Blood Orange's Dev Hynes, Spector's Fred Macpherson, and Stephen Street.
The Charlatans push their own sound to the forefront, with gentle distortions and experimental flares, such as Peter Gordon's saxophone on Glad You Grabbed Me.
