No, you sir, haven't nailed it on the head.

The thing with DM and WTSMG is that people romanticize it. Disgy's Dinner isn't deemed decent because it's being compared to the classics on DM, but rather because no one will slate DM and will find reason to like every song on it.

Fact is, if Digsy's Dinner was on HC, you lot would be bitching about it.

DOYS is a fantastic album, and the fact is that if DOYS followed WTS instead of BHN, the Oasis legacy would be even bigger.

Oh, and I've never seen anyone complain about POTQ - except for a few people claiming it's dad rock (wrongly). POTQ is one of Noel's best ever songs.....

Bag It Up, The Turning, Rapture, Outta Time, Shock of the Lightning, and Falling Down are all epic
High Horse, Nature of Reality (this one's grown on me), TBWTL are decently good
Soldier On, Ain't Got Nothing are weak

6 monumental songs, 3 decent songs, and 2 weak songs - that's a pretty damn good break down, if you ask me - and follows the pattern of DM/WTSMG breakdown too - IF YOU'RE BEING HONEST when ranking the songs on those first 2 albums....

Well, you and I are not seeing eye-to-eye, Live4evr.

DM and MG did not have "weak tracks" in the sense that they are terrible. Digsy's Dinner, IMO is a great tune and I love it. It's catchy, it's just the right length, it's well-produced, and it fits the flow of the album.

Conversely, TNOR is a pile of rubbish and is the antithesis of the former.

This same comparison is true of MG with DBTT or whatever.

And about is DOYS came out in 1997. Whatever. That's the most retarded argument I've ever heard. This album is influenced by the changes that came to rock and alternative in the past 3 or 4 years. It's absurd to think that this could have happened at any other time. That and Andy, Gem, and Liam would not be writing.

I'm tired of people comparing this to other albums. It's not LIKE any other Oasis album. That's one of the reasons I dig it so much. It's not a fantastic album, so it's very new and exciting. However, the QUALITY of tunes is lesser than any other Oasis album to date.

HC is a brilliant album, and I will likewise defend DBTT

I don't caere if you've listened to DOYS 450 times already. It's just that it's TOO soon to be objective. You need to move on a bit. Wait and see

Shoutbox

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5

Bonehead's Barber: Why has the banner gone black? Oct 11, 2024 12:36:27 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Halloween theme I reckon bonehead's barber Oct 13, 2024 14:08:59 GMT -5
