Reviews
Ranked #14 in Nme's 1997 Critics' Poll., "...if you take on TELLIN' STORIES you get your head blown off....TELLIN' STORIES is an unfailingly warm record...The Charlatans have genuine charm....It's f***ing storming...", Included in Q Magazine's "50 Best Albums of 1997.", "...The Charlatans confront death...with grace, dignity, and new creative commitment. Wheezy warbler Tim Burgess--whose fascination with hip-hop is distancing the band from its hazy Madchester past--floats ghostlike over fat Farfisa melodies..." - Rating: B, Ranked #3 on Melody Maker's List of 1997's "Albums of the Year.", 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...The Charltans scramble up industrial hip-hop soul with spirited, melodic '60s-rock influences, but they never let their postmodernism detract from their base simplicity of well-crafted songs and unabashed rockin'...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...The trio of opening tracks....are simply the best songs The Charlatans have ever recorded: great grooves, strong melodies....Tellin' Stories completes The Charlatans' transformation from also-rans to British perennials."
