Just got hold of the full album - great return to form. Liam's voice is absolutely horrific, but Noel's songs are unbelievable. The Importance Of Being Idle is one of the greatest songs ever, and Mucky Fingers is also amazing. Guess God Thinks I'm Able and Let There Be Love are also immense. So, anyone else heard it?

Although listening to it now, track 8 (whatever it's called, the "stand tall, stand proud" one) sounds remarkably like something else, possibly Golden Brown.

So it's a great album with a horrific singer. Umm, isn't that a contradiction of terms?

Funny, I entirely misconstrued what this thread was about.

LOL, me too, TL [img]graemlins/lol.gif[/img]

Me three ;)

Me four

After reading your replies, me five actually.

Watch my six. :D

7 comming in to back you up. :D Here I was thinking Cloudy had some big conspiracy going on.

:D

ROTFL, yup, I'm backing the lousy singer so we can get Harley a gig with the band! [img]graemlins/laugh2.gif[/img] :D

So does that make me #8 or #9 to think it was about something else? :D

*edit* and to return to the thread, I haven't listened to it yet, Brayf. Sounds interesting, though ;)

Well, I'm betting I'm #10. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

11 and counting .... Poor Brayf I bet he wonders what the hell we are thinking about [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

I'm glad the band is back in form Brayf. I thought they would disapear into oblivion, or a cloud of white powder! [img]graemlins/heee.gif[/img]

Liam's voice is absolutely terrific, which is what I hope you meant to say. His voice has always been one of the great things about Oasis, and I think he's in better form here than on any of the other three latest albums.

You're right about the album though, it's their best in 10 years by a large margin.

Thanks cloudy, but let me get through my recital next month first [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Haha, I think Noel sings most of the songs on it and he does them really well. Liam does a couple of songs quite well but on the whole I think he's starting to sound a bit too old.

Uh...but don't almost all Oasis songs sound like something else? You have to admit this is a band which hasn't let success get in the way of attitude.

I actually like Oasis, but the Gallaghers aren't what I'd call a fount of talent, unless you count creative 'borrowing' as talent. Shakermaker? Go Let It Out?...I mean, they barely bothered to even change the lyrics.

Mancunian Faux-Snobbery is fine to a point but, like them or not, Oasis is bound to end up a footnote of some kind in music history.

Oasis - I Can't Believe People Buy This Indie Crap is also a good album ;) :D
