>> Charlatans UK

Playing slow to midtempo pop, the Charlatans UK feature multi-layered melodies, highlighting the interplay of keyboards and guitar melodies in many of their songs. While many of the band's songs are slower, they avoid flirting with depression and still conjure up feel-good pop hooks. Typical British indie rock, running the gamut from Madchester to later indie pop, the Charlatans focus more on songwriting and substance than flash that other styles focus on.
