Regarded at the time as the runts of the baggy litter, the Charlatans have proved many doubters wrong by living through traumas that would have split many bands up (arrests, nervous breakdowns and even the death of keyboard player Rob Collins), and are still together when their original peers are caricatures (the Mondays), revered memories (the Roses), or half-remembered jokes (the Inspiral Carpets, Northside). However, despite the longevity that was to come, this is a only mediocre debut offering, with little matching the impact of singles "The Only One I Know" and "Then". All the ingredients are in place: Tim Burgess' nasal drone, Collins' Hammond Organ and the groovy bass-lines, but it was only with 1994's Up To Our Hips that the band applied their undoubted mastery of the single to a longer work, and 1998's Melting Pot compilation is their most essential release. --Ronita Dutta
