The Charlatans bridged baggy and Britpop and then simply kept going, and We Are Love is a new album rather than another anniversary victory lap. Brooklyn Steel is the last date of the tour, which usually means a longer set and a looser band. Frankie Rose opens, and putting a Brooklyn songwriter out of Vivian Girls and Dum Dum Girls in front of them is a genuinely good piece of matchmaking.
What to expect
A career-spanning set weighted toward the new record but built around the organ-driven singles the band made their name on, played in an 1,800-capacity former steel fabrication shop with a standing floor and a mezzanine above. Frankie Rose opens. As the tour finale, expect the band to stretch well past their usual running time.
