The Charlatans’ New Album Free to Download
I can’t say I’m a huge fan of The Charlatans but it’s nice to see another “big” group giving their music away for free.
Head over to XFM who are providing the album as a zipped set of mp3 files or as separate mp3 downloads.
You’ve already feasted your ears on two phenomenal singles: title track ‘You Cross My Path‘ and ‘Oh Vanity‘, and now the time has come for the whole album ‘You Cross My Path’ to be made available to download for free. Yes you did hear us right, the album to have and to hold for nowt, zilch, zero, zip.
Speaking to Xfm frontman Tim Burgess revealed “We always knew this album was gonna be given away for free, even before we started writing so we wanted to make it the best album we’ve ever made. This isn’t a case of left over tracks and b-sides, we wanted to give our fans a quality record.”
Manager Alan McGee agreed: “I completely mean it when I say this is their best record in year, their best since ‘Telling Stories’. I think for ten years they’ve been a brilliant band but they haven’t fulfilld their full potential until now.”
