BBC Music wrote: “When you’ve been around as long as the Charlatans, you
have to keep trying new things or your sound can become tired. Simpatico, though,
is an experiment too far. A new direction was needed, but that direction should not
have been a musical journey round the Caribbean. It’s time to set sail for home
and go back to the drawing board.”

Turn Up The Volume: Expect for a couple of top singles,
the album was anything but top.

Singles: Blackened Blue Eyes / NYC (There’s No Need to Stop)

– BLACKENED BLUE EYES –
