{"product_id":"charlatans-different-days-vinyl","title":"Charlatans DIFFERENT DAYS Vinyl","description":"As a title, Different Days certainly suggests the Charlatans have pushed themselves into a new era. In a sense, they were forced to change. After mourning founding drummer Jon Brookes on 2015's Modern Nature, the group has moved into a different phase with Brookes replacement Pete Salisbury, formerly of the Verve. Anchored by Salisbury, the Charlatans aren't quite as traditionally minded as they used to be and they embrace a new fluidity not only in their rhythms -- which are sometimes enhanced by drum programming -- but their attitude toward collaborations. Former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr plays on three songs, Brian Jonestown Massacre's Anton Newcombe plays on a couple of tracks, and Paul Weller co-wrote the closing \"Spinning Out.\" What's interesting is that none of these spotlights are flashy -- the guitars don't call attention to themselves, Weller's piano adds color but it doesn't provide the foundation for \"Spinning Out\" -- yet the presence of the additional musicians is instrumental in the variety of Different Days. True, this variety is rather subtle, partially due to the doggedly low-key production, but underneath its simmering shimmer Different Days offers spins on classic pop, electronic soul, and late-night chill. Perhaps it's quiet exploration, but the Charlatans embrace the elastic possibilities of new avenues here, and the results are rewarding. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 05\/26\/2017\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRSD Release Date: DDD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Pop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Charlatans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":37751571873965,"sku":"Z8R97K-GQKV-00","price":27.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0518\/8439\/2621\/files\/Monostereo-Charlatans-Different-Days-Vinyl_LQ4l3.jpg?v=1742082211","url":"https:\/\/thefinestvibes.com\/products\/charlatans-different-days-vinyl","provider":"The Finest Vibes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
