England's Charlatans U.K. have grown considerably since they surfaced in 1990 as part of the Manchester dance scene. The band members have become solid songwriters and soulful, bluesy musicians who hint at what the Rolling Stones might sound like today if they hadn't become such pathetic geezers. Unfortunately, the band's self-titled album hasn't generated much excitement at home, and the group hasn't made an impact in the U.S. since its debut single, "The Only One I Know." It's a strong effort nonetheless, and a lot more satisfying than contemporaneous outings by kindred spirits the Stone Roses and Primal Scream. --Jim DeRogatis
