A track from the new Charlatans album Different Days has been shared.
Ahead of release on May 26th, Plastic Machinery is offering a glimpse of what is a guest-packed LP thanks to its own contributions from Johnny Marr and Anton Newcombe.
Frontman Tim Burgess was on BBC 6Music last week explaining how this friendly theme had first become a specific aim. “After Jon (Brookes) died we decided not to replace him on drums so the first port of call is always Pete Salisbury, who plays with us live, so he was our first guest,” he said.
“And then as we started to write more and more songs it became apparent that we’d like to ask Stephen Morris to play with us, so Stephen ended up playing on seven songs, and Gillian from New Order also played on one.”
