just listened to it. Holy FUCK!!!!!!!! "NYC" is so good! I'm finishing up the last half of the album now. I think i'll get melting pot tommorow.

Glad to read you're digging the Charlatans! :)

Doesn't charlatan mean a theif or something like that?

try new order and primal scream next prochem. ;)

tho they'r completely different music between them.

chops - thanks for the warfield recco - will see if i have any chance at sourcing it.

btw, folks july 1st is just 10 days away finally! FUCK YEAHH!!

n the Klaxons suck on their album, except for it's not over yet - that song rocks! damn, it's not over yet, it never stops.

Seconded on New Order and Primal Scream. If you don't know where to start with New Order, pick up Substance - well worth the money and it'll give you a taste of what's what, it's got the hits: Blue Monday, Confusion, Temptation. Good stuff, all-in-one package.

With Primal Scream, no record collection is complete without Screamadelica imo. It's a near perfect album and it's so so good! XTRMNTR is also good, very hard, and very charged.

I can't let this thread go without a high recommendation of The Verve's A Storm In Heaven. It's brilliant, lush, ethereal - it's such a good album, so many incredible songs you can get lost in, they take you to another place. It's one of my favorite albums of all time.

After the first time i saw the Klaxons were on a WATN song, I decided to check em out. I now have their whole album Myths of the Near Future. I love it.

I already own almost every New Order album, and I already have a few primal scream albums too. I must say that my favorite New Order albums would have to be substance, singles (94), get ready and waiting for the siren's call. My favorite primal scream would have to be screamadelica and vanishing point.

Hey - not been here for a week - just recovered from glasto.

@prochem - nice one for getting into the charlatans. there are two best of's ,"Melting Pot" released about 5 years ago when they left their first label and "The very best of" released last year which is a singles collection. Melting pot is more of a collection of stuff they were proud of, including Patrol with the Chems.

@ Ben and @ mx - the idea was to talk about other bands you got into or tried to get into thru listenin to the chems and no pretending either.

I realise i am bit behind here but as i said i was in a field for a week
