Stephen Morris, of New Order, who briefly helped out on ‘Modern Nature’, also leant a hand to seven tracks of drumming and programming on ‘Different Days’.
Tracks
Yeah I saw on Twitter this morning that the new Charlatans album is something of a "guest-fest" with both Johnny Marr and Paul Weller also involved.
Their second album after Jon Brookes' passing, what a shame. Hard to believe it's been over two years since 'Modern Nature' already.
I remember watching them play a mini-set at Rough Trade East in London to launch it. Emilie (which Steve played on, on the LP) was a jaunty little track.
Their song called MIS-TAKES from their album YOU CROSSED MY PATH was a total New Orderish song from start to finish, I love this song especially the ending

I always thought "Oh Vanity" was a straight rip-off of "Waiting For The Sirens' Call". https://youtu.be/CmxHIklXnQU

Chappy, he of the loose lips, replying to a tweet inquiring about Rubberbear gigs: ChappyTweet
Chappy could mean a new single / EP / album / re-workings of old stuff for MIF.
Any & all of which would be just fine by me! :D

Speaking of Chappy's twitter, what are these two tweets about? Both retweeted by TC. I'm guessing "Shadowplay" should be Shadow Party, but hey what do I know?

That thought crossed my mind too.

I'm taking "new material" to mean just that.
Fully realized versions of Plastic and Singularity debuted live in 2014, so were likely began in 2013 or earlier. Not a stretch to believe they're cooking up tracks now that may not see release for a year or two.
Well that's settled then. New Order will have 580849 new EPs out in time for din dins, with 6979074976390 LPs to follow before beddie byes. And Michael Monkhouse can go fuck himself. Really. He's a hermaphrodite, he can go fuck himself, it's awesome.

Well, we all assume you're the type of guy that's at least tried to suck himself off...
I should probably start a new thread on this, as it has f**k all to do with the Charlatans, but following on from previous posts above about Chapman & Cunningham, here's a new tweet from Chappers.

Well fuck that. Really. Fuck all of it. Just fuck it. Pop stars shouldn't be 'lovely to have around', they should be snorting cocaine out of prostitutes' arseholes and making awesome music. 'Yerse, Sidney Vicious is such a sweetie, he always washes the dishes after our vegan casserole and perfectly-temperatured lightly sparkling mineral water, mmmmm loves yer babes.' Fuck it. This is like in the early 90s when it was all off-shoots, Hassie, Factory, one-offs etc. I always wished they'd just shut the fuck up and make another album as good as Technique. I guess they did in the end, but it took 25 years, inter-personnel problems and the Other Spew.
