sorry people,but i ve listened to this album over and over all night and most of today - and i just cant get into it at all -
only songs i like are mucky fingers and lyla - the rest to me are very average although a bell will ring has come a long way since poole 2004. i also think eyeball tickler should have been on there. this is my opinion so please dont slate me oover this. i just prefer the thrasing guitars to semi acoustic stuff.

Woah I think Lyla and Mucky fingers are a damn weak pairing on the new album, you'll probably like it in time.

Personally I think this album is better than WTSMG?. For me, Keep The Dream alive is the most mudane song, but all the others are either very good, on as in the case of GGTIA and TIOBI absolutely stupendously MEGA. I'm very impressed. What can I say?? I think the critics are getting it right on this album. Its the best in te years.

i'm not saying its bad,but i,m just disapointed in it,now maybe a few weeks down the road,it'll begin to grow on me,but at this moment in time the skip button on the hifi remote is being used a lot

You got a good point mate, I don't really disagree. I'm really happy though it is better than the last 2 albums. It's strange -- there's no songs I can think of off DBTT that are utter shite -- they're just a little different in some cases and maybe don't live up to the hyped expectations. On the other hand, there were songs on SOTSOG and HC that in my opinion, were pretty much crap, especially compared to the new stuff.

I only bought them because of force of habit really. If this one hadn't been good I'd have lost faith.....but what can I say - It's brilliant

I agree with you Belfastdon , for me , this album sounds more than Heathen Chemistry Vol II than anything close from Morning Glory & Heathen Chemistry
Mucky Fingers = Forc Of Nature Love like a bomb = songbird Keep the dream alive = probably all in my mind Meaning of soul = better man a bell will ring = hung in a bad place
etc... i am a bit disapointed too
but that's just my opinion

i think this one might be a grower Don. It's good wonderul melodies and is (with a nod to Mr. Sardy) quite brilliantly produced. The Importance Of Being Idle is wondeful. Like the Kinks. Brilliant lyrics too.

HC was utter pants because it was like a pub band's take on Oasis. This one is much more free and easy - Noel's gone back to ripping songs off everyone else rather than himself (as was the case on HC). There are 7 or 8 brilliant tracks on this album. Its top.

i cant agree... ltbl,ktda,tuts,ggtia ,poq,iobi, oh great tunes,again its the stigma of comparing OASIS to there past, no band other than the beatles made a impact like OASIS as evidenced in there sales and impact on culture....i think its a case of 10 years down the road u will look back and say brilliant! but now u are comparing to unreachable expectations,,, i will give u 2 examples when the beatles debuted "all you nee is love" on american bandstand it got panned by the viewers ,they were dissapointed they werent the mop top lookin sounding lads ,now those same people think its a classic if cobain did not die everything he wrote would have been compared to "nevermind" and paled because u cant get better but he died NOEL didnt, this lp is great by any standards but if u compare it to DM it will not live up WHAT COULD? MY 2 CENTS

personally, I love the entire album, LLAB = brilliance, POTQ = brilliance, DBTT = brilliance....
I personally listen to every Oasis album a lot, I don't particularly have a favorite album, to me, all of them have been great in their own ways...
as different as some of the songs are on DBTT to previous records, it is still Oasis, and Oasis to me are the best fookin band in the world....
I keep on wanting more and more brilliance, and to me they always deliver that brilliance with EVERY album...
but don't mind me... I have today off of work, gonna be drinking beers all day and learning the new stuff on guitar..... brilliant!
cheers!

you're a god thanx man ..i get passionate but i really believe thats the problem with people (no disrepect,me and don will be drinkin in manc ) its just after 2 absolute mega lps everyone gets stoked for another and while i think this is it does sound different, if u ask the majority of beatle fans what they prefer they will tell you post 1966 but back then they were upset with there change from pop to deep, it takes time but i guarantee 5 years down people who are dissapointed now ,will listen and compare it to what else came out in 05 and realise its GREAT

I think part of the problem is that no Oasis record will ever have the same cultural impact as the first two (even though I think that DBTT is better than WTSMG?) and so people can't get caught up in a cultural frenzy anymore if ya know what I mean

I'm thinking youre right because only the most influential, talented bands can put out albums in whole different styles than from when they started out and keep it all going strong. Its a sign of the times too I think more of the better music out right now (especially in the states, which may be the Sardy influence) is more mellow and acoustic rather than what Oasis was 10 years ago.

let´s assume that it´s true... so there are 6 remaining songs... lyla is crap, so there´s 5... but TUTS, TIOBI, POTQ, GGTIA and LTBL are FAR better than any song in HC...

see? you´ve got 3 of the best songs of HC and compared with 3 of the weakest of DBTT...
the last time oasis written three songs with the quality of LTBL, TUTS and TIOBI IN THE SAME ALBUM was in 1995...
