Okay I know this is not a manics list but i couldn't let such a misguided
comment go uncommented on. No the manics do not sound like a heavy metal
band. I'll admit there was that one album (the name escapes me not, not
generation terrorists, or the holy bible), and even the band themselves
are not the proudest of that album. But, if you take a listen to their
first album - "generation terrorists" and the new one - "everything must
go" you'll see just how wrong saying they sound like a heavy metal band.
Especially if you listen to "tiny black flowers that grow in the sky" off
the new album. Plus on top of that they have some of the most intelligent
lyrics in music today, can metallica really say that for themselves? I'd
say not!
Anyway, like I said I know this is not a Manics list but I just wanted to
defend the honour of the boys from Blackwood. ;)>

I wish everyone would get off the oasis thing. Point is, they're a damn
decent band, and as much as I hate to admit it, have sold tons more
records than most of my other fav. bands, including the charlatans. They
just have this image they like to play on. But I do agree they should
just stop their bickering and get on with it. Though if Liam left I think
oasis wouldn't split and noel would sing. Definitely not the sex appeal,
but if you've evr heard don't look back in anger or step out, then you
know noel can rock with the best of them and can sing alright. And let's
not forget, anyone who's ever seen him live knows what a top guitar
player he is.
Here in the u.s. it sucks, I can't find the new charlatans single
anywhere, and I'm still waiting for northern uproar to take america by
storm.
god only knows why the charlatans aren't going to get a permnament organ
player. I wonder if they'll become more of a guitar based unit now? Well
anyone?

In response to kevin i definitely think that the charlatans should move
towards moe guitar work. Granted Rob was very talented, but one must
admit his unique sound is not replaceable. Te keyboard generation died in
the early 90's unfortunately so. If Charlatans are able to go mainline
with guitars than perhaps they will be able to hit main stream again
because must ,music these days is functionally based around strings. Who

now, now...suggesting rap music has no semblance of creativity or the
implication that electronically generated music is music without
instruments (or insturments) is a little narrow minded don't you think?
The computer, the sound module, the mixer, they are all instruments as
well. I'd warrant Tim Burgess would agree to that.

Subject: Re: no bad news
i think that there are possibly two sides to the question of replacing
rob. on one hand, i agree that you can't replace his contribution to the
band and his knowledge of the inner workings of the charlatans. on the
other hand, i would think that concert goers from here onwards would feel
that there was "something missing" from their sound if that keyboard
wasn't there. you can argue that use of more guitars will possibly make
them "more mainstream", but why follow what's'trendy' in music today? i
think that their sound has evolved quite a bit since the first album, and
that's what's kept them going (and with critical acclaim to back them, no
less) whereas the other bands from 5-7 years ago (i.e. northside--where
are they now?) didn't float.
just some more thoughts from central illinois, the cultural abyss.

Back to the manics for one brief moment. "Generation Terrorists" was not
their heavy metal album. It was the one either before holy bible or after
it. It has the title taht includes sword in it, but I'm completely
drawing a blank on the name of it. I'll make it a goal to find out

The problem is that there are nothing but guitar bands out there now, I'm
sick this overglorified classic rock called "grunge".
What I've always liked best about the Charlies is that they're a band in
which not a single one of the instruments dominates the sound.

I'm in total agreement here. There are far too many guiter-drum-bass
bands out there that are just churning up the muck of yesterday and
last year and the last decade. That organ makes a lot of the charlies
songs great instead of just good. The band would be doing themselves
a disservice in retiring that old hammond after all these years.
I don't think they will but what do i know.
one of the sequencer generation.

Subject: Re: BAD NEWS
LET ME CLARIFY...
"East Coast Killas. West Coast Killas" is crap. over here, in the states
the pop music seriously blows. many bands do not even write their own songs,
or play insturments by themselves. i do admire techno because they, the
artists make no bones about what their work is. here the rap artists, who do
have a talent for rhymin'(and stealin' props to the beastie boys) have less
of a musical ear. snoop doggy dogg.....the guy markets himself to middleclass
white kids ihn the suburbs, and fills them up with horrific pictures of
american ghetto l,ife, which these priviledged white kids emulate in their parents
Mercedes or BMW. secondly, attempt to listen to one of his songs, or any
gangsta rappas aong....nuff said. tribe called quest, digable planets are
another thing. the music and lyrics are intelligent,and well put together.
from an artistic stand point, sure in 50 years when everyone is dead, or in
tupac shakurs case now, people may look back and reevaluate what the music
says. unlike artists like hendrix, morrison, even the painter Van Gogh (who
everone thought was crazy) the only thoing this gangsta rap which is polluting
american radios says is how to *uck you *itch, steal, kill, and how its all
whiteys fault. my 17 year old sister was excited to play me a rap song
entitled "blow job betty". the song in graphic detal explaind...well we all
can imagine. now art my be sexual and violent, but there is a difference
between intelligent lyrics which cleverly manipulate the language to elude
to multiblke meanings.
one more thing. rapppers only do it for money, not for the love of
music, or because of some emotional necessity, but because their managers
rape them and use them for mi
oney. i am grateful that the millions of times i saw "wonderwall" i was not
seeing "east coast killas waes coast killas"
******************how does this relate to the CHARLATANS?***************
the charlatans are beautiful artist
! their music is pleasing to the ear, and burgess, and crew write great
lyrics, ii am studying English literature (not grammar as you may have guessed)
and could see into so many of the charlies songs. the charlies are plesent
while rappers are vulgar

I agree (and would add de la soul to the "artistic" list. I like the new
album much, although it isn't as fyun as their first 3) . I also agree
with the person who wanted to hear bands where not just one sound came
through. Although most bands use or are characterized more by a particular
instrument than another; there is a problem of being completed dominated
by a instrument, which does seem very frequent in current popular music (i
think that's when people find a synthesizer particularly annoying). I
never realized that the bands I like are diverse in which instrument
comes through for different songs and different parts of songs.Alright
that took way too long to say.

No way should the Charlatans stick to just a guitar sound!
Their development since the first album just proves how
they've adapted the hammond/keyboards from their Madchester
days to something that's fresh and exciting for today.
I think that in today's guitar drenched world in which the
keyboard generation is supposedly dead, the keyboard sounds
of the Charlies are even more relevant. This said, their
guitar sound is equally important, but it's their amalgamation
of these sounds which makes them so ace.
I agree that they'll never replace Rob, but just cos
he's no longer around does not mean that they should ditch
what he made so special. I think that most people would
agree that they do not want to see the Charlies turn into
guitar based rock pigs like the Roses (so sad what's happened
to them!)

Subject: INFLUENCES
I think it is important that all the band members, of whatever teh
particular band be, have various musical tastes. AS such, it will bring a
fresh vibe to song writing. It is more than likely that the bands
themselves do not listen to soley other bands that make up their genre of
music. I know the guys from Chaperhouse all had varying musical tastes,
ranging from dance to house to the style deemed "indie." Then on top of
that just because a particular band member listens to a style that does
not mean that it would carry over to influence their song writing. But,
if it does would that be so bad? I think we would all agree that what
makes a truly great band and song writer is to draw upon all sorts of
styles and create something original and exciting. Besides, how many
bands of today really have something that can be said to be 100% original.
All the recent talk slagging Oasis for ripping off Oasis isn't that new
or that surprising. It's called having an influence - albeit Oasis
had a considerably large amount of "influecne" (i'm trying to be polite)
but nothing has been truly 100% original in decades. Everyband has
something in their sound that we've heard before. I see a lot of
"northern soul" in the charlatans and verve, a lot of 1960s pop in the
charlatans also, and also in bands like st. etienne and ride. It really
is to be expected. what does count more on teh originality scale should
be a combination of lyrics and music - even if the music does come from a
sound heard elsewhere.
Now, if only researching and writing my dissertation could go so well at
almost midnight.

Here in Perth few music reviewers recognise the fact that all bands are
influenced by other music and that nothing is totally new. They chose to
slag off local acts that are influenced by English pop and dance music,
calling them too derivative (yes I've been at the receiving end of this) and
ignore the, to me, more obvious references by local acts to the
more fashionable US guitar pop bands, most of the time not even
ackowledging the similarities. Oh well

hey megan!
i'm in st. louis too. were you into the charlie's before this last album?
even though they didn't come 'round last year, i saw them at mississippi
nights in '92 and '94. of course, the two _best_ shows i've ever witnessed
in my life (only because i missed ride, i'm sure :) the place was packed
in '92, but wasn't too crowded in '94 which i'm guessing is why they didn't
come back.

Hey buddy, check your email it wasn't me who was whining about Oasis
it was someone with xapuzder as their address. I expect an apology. I was
suggesting he or she open their minds up about music; any type, no
matter how tired and cheesey, even including Oasis.
But thankyou for sending the message to me because it confirmed in my
mind the uselessness of email (which, by the way, is not yours but belongs
to everybody who agrees to subscribe to this list). Its just too easy to
send messages without really thinking about what you are saying. And you
can vent steam off on some innocent stranger.
Maybe, Mr jANUS, the price you pay for being on this list is putting up
with other people's opinions and being factually accurate and relatively
friendly if you want to express your difference of opinion.
So stop annoying me

No problemo finding One to Another in the stores hear, provided you find the
right store. The US has a thing about good British artists--the major stores
want to sell enough crap from US wannabes and MTV talentless bands and leave
most of the real music for small stores and college radio to cover. It must
be a conspiracy (one of them many theories I subscribe to--just kidding).
Production on the single sounds a bit tinny and the organ is too far back in
the mix. I actually like the track Reputation best on first couple listens.
Good solid single.
Another cool release is the Long Agos and Worlds Apart, Small Faces tribute

Also, Northern Uproar, which I'm sure would please Kevin100.

I think they are a very generic sound that has been done to death. you

yes, but their first and third albums are far better (the dodgy album and

the beatles revolution on the "criminal justice bill album"

Thanks for the post on new bands Michael. I can't get enough of Dodgy at the
moment, especially 'In A Room' from Free Peace Sweet. I am also dying to
hear the Kula Shaker album as the new single is ace. As is "one to another"
which seems to have had little comment passed on it on the Charlatans list.
It was nice to see a post that didn't include two pages of other peoples
messages attached to it for a change as well as one that failed to mention
another American city where you think you may have heard the Charlatans will
be coming to or once did, with no report of the concert at all if you had
gone and wished you had been to if you weren't there. Nor did it go on and
on trying to recall the heavy metal album( and this is really stretching it)
of band. Not the Charalatans again. There seems to be a lot of memory loss
going around on this list, and very little thought put in to what is being
posted.

Slash and Burn is indeed on Generation Terrorists.
That was their glam/punk album. Gold Against the Soul
is stadium rock, The Holy Bible is stripped back, angry punk/goth

Hey Dan, did you see what he called me? I'll paraphrase:"Oi you, get
off my email you fookin' twat". And he sent it to the wrong guy! It wasn't
me who sent the message he disliked enough to be so rude.
I know its a bit lame to say "he started it" but..well..he did! And at
least I was relatively civil in my reply. There's nothing like being a
totally innocent victim for bringing out dignified self righteousness.
Come to think of it I don't think we CAN all get along. That's
the sad fact of the human condition.

**** Important message regarding the Digest version of this mailing list ****
I'm sorry to inform all of you that the next issue of the Then Digest
(the Charlatans Digest) will be the last one. After that, the Then
mailing list will be shut down.
Why - I simply do not have the time anymore.
Thank you for this time,

the roses played in st. l., about a week or two before squire broke his
collarbone. they played at one of those huge festivals (7-10 bands) and
although there were some roses fans out there, no one really gave a crap
until they did "10 storey" and of course "love spreads". ian was a bit mad
at the crowd's indifference, but i thought they still did a pretty good 45
min. set. songs included: made of stone, she bangs the drums, elephant
stone, breaking into heaven, i am the resurrection, driving south--and of
course, opening with i wanna be adored.

Since when can Noel Galagher play guitar? When I saw oasis I was totally
disapointed with both guitars-the boner guy and Noel.Both playing the
same open chords in unison. Then noel comin out to play his 'solo'
and you can here keyboards in the background. What a joke. I wonder
how Mark Collins feels about Noel. They were both Roadies for the
carpets together, and both join major bands. Collins a hundred times better
at guitar, but noel, even though he plays like crap is the one gettin plenty.

Dearest Gregory:
This is quite impertenant to the list, but I feel I should defend
myself. The reason that I wrote "I'm gonna catch hell for this" is because
I knew that I would from people like you. Thanks for proving me right.
God fucking forbid somebody should try to keep the conversations "civil" on
this list. Maybe the reason that I directed that message to you is because
the rest of the list probably doesn't feel like getting messages that consist
of nothing but petty arguements between two people that have little or no
value (entertainment aside) to any of the topics on the list.
I'm not trying to cram the age-old "Charlatans content only" line down your
throat, but I think your spiteful little lashouts are just a wee bit immature.
Sorry. Don't mean to act like your dad or anything.
Well, gotta go, its past my bedtime.
dan.
