I love the fact that The Charlatans are so continuously and effortlessly cool. This is the first single off the upcoming album, ‘Simpatico’. I just wish I could get a version without the background dialogue. I mean it’s almost interesting, but stuff like: “Ya seen Jonny?!”, “The Tang brothers? Those chumps? I’m here”, and “I’m gonna get a backhoe and uproot dat tree. I wanna know where da gold at” just kinda take away from the song.

‘Simpatico’ is out April 18.
