CATEGORIES:music
DESCRIPTION:One of the best loved UK bands of the last four decades\, The 
 Charlatans’ career spans 13 albums\, 22 Top 40 singles\, three Number On
 e albums and era-defining anthems like ‘The Only One I Know’\, ‘Nort
 h Country Boy’ and ‘One to Another’. We Are Love launches a bold new
  era\, one that finds them at peace with their past whilst looking forward
  to a bright future. \nLead single ‘We Are Love’ is a celebratory stat
 ement of intent\, an urgent\, limber\, clattering love song to the human r
 ace. Propelled forward by driving drums and anthemic guitar\, frontman Tim
  Burgess describes it as “like an open top car ride in the credits of yo
 ur favourite movie driving along the coast to somewhere amazing.” One of
  the first tracks to emerge from the album\, it became a pathfinder for th
 e record\, as Collins explains: “Early on we thought it felt right. And 
 it turned out that way: first single\, title track\, second song on the al
 bum. And things started forming around We Are Love. There was a certain en
 ergy to it that drove us forwards.” \nAn eight year gap between albums i
 s the longest ever for one of the UK’s most enduring bands. A combinatio
 n of covid\, solo projects\, life’s complexities and the fact that its f
 ive members – Tim Burgess (vocals)\, Martin Blunt (bass)\, Mark Collins 
 (guitar)\, Tony Rogers (keyboards) and Pete Salisbury (drums) – live sca
 ttered across Europe\, meant that it took longer than usual for the stars 
 to align at the right place\, right time\, right vibe. They took the time 
 to carefully select a recording A-team of production duo Dev Hynes (aka Bl
 ood Orange and Lightspeed Champion) and Fred Macpherson (Spector\, Rachel 
 Chinouriri\, Jessica Winter\, Taahliah)\, plus legendary producer Stephen 
 Street (The Smiths\, Blur\, The Cranberries)\, alongside a list of enginee
 rs\, mixers and collaborators that reads like a who’s who of alt rock gr
 eatness. The result has been well worth the wait. \nRecorded at two places
  that are totemic in The Charlatans’ history – Rockfield in Wales and 
 their own Big Mushroom space in Middlewich\, Cheshire – Burgess cites ha
 untology and psychogeography as two concepts that swirled in his head as t
 he band dug into the album making. For one thing\, their return to storied
  farm studio Rockfield for the first time in almost 30 years – since the
 y made fifth album Tellin’ Stories – was an important step. As a band 
 they hadn’t been there since keyboard player Rob Collins was killed\, in
  the middle of that album’s sessions\, in a car crash at the bottom of t
 he track leading to the farm. Throughout the record you can hear The Charl
 atans’ awareness of the stuff that’s made them – the highs and the l
 ows\; the desire to honour their own mighty legacy\, whilst not being defi
 ned by it. A career-long drive to be progressive and innovative. \nTim Bur
 gess explains: “The whole idea of hauntology and psychogeography is repr
 esented by us going back to Rockfield\, where so much history has happened
  for The Charlatans. That was important as a way of honouring every member
  who’s played in the band. So we’re honouring ourselves\, our past\, f
 eeling that energy and reincarnating it\, doing something fresh\, brand ne
 w.” \nThis introspection brought home the fact that love is the glue tha
 t has held The Charlatans together for so long\, and that’s reflected in
  the 11 tracks that make up this forward-thinking\, future-facing album. \
 nWe are The Charlatans. \nWe Are Love.

DESCRIPTION:One of the most innovative and prestigious bands in modern sym
 phonic metal\, heavy icons KAMELOT present their most introspective\, upli
 fting\, vital release to date – their first full-length in five years\, 
 2023’s aptly titled The Awakening. Having reigned supreme with the relea
 se of internationally top-charting melodic metal pinnacles such as The Fou
 rth Legacy (1999)\, The Black Halo (2005)\, Silverthorn (2012)\, Haven (20
 15\, #1 US Hard Rock Albums)\, and most recently 2018’s acclaimed The Sh
 adow Theory (#2 US Hard Music Albums)\, The Awakening enters the KAMELOT l
 egacy as their most massive and diverse offering yet – mixing symphonic\
 , gothic\, melodic\, progressive and power metal styles while yielding som
 e of the heaviest tracks in the band’s history. On their 13th studio alb
 um\, The Awakening\, the band expressly invites listeners to discover “t
 he power of one” within themselves as well. Exuding the impassioned song
 writing\, complex musicianship\, and sophisticated production that’s alw
 ays made KAMELOT a remarkable act\, the LP offers a more diverse\, uplifti
 ng\, and introspective journey compared to bleaker predecessor The Shadow 
 Theory. As such\, The Awakening encourages its audience to\, well\, awaken
  not only to the grandeur of its genre(s)\, but to the greatness of life i
 tself. \nBuy Now
