For me these albums are tied and they're always changing positions in my top albums list. What do you think?

I prefer DOYS, but SOTSOG is still a brilliant album

For me they are tied essentially. Neither album is classic, but both contain a number of good tracks. Their both kind of like half albums.
Combined:
FITB, Go Let It Out, The Turning, Bag It Up, The Shock Of The Lightning, Gas Panic!, Where Did It All Go Wrong?, Falling Down, I'm Outta Time, Waiting For The Rapture, Roll It Over
Eleven tracks, 5 off SOTSOG, 6 of DOYS
Brilliant.

SOTSOG is my favorite of the two, but DOYS is a little better.

'Giants' by a nose, simply because of Gas Panic and Go Let It Out.

As the months have progressed, this question is becoming more difficult.
Both albums suffer from the same problem: 3 very weak tracks (TNOR, AGN, SO/HHL - depending on who you are vs. PYMWYMI, ICSAL, LJ) but some excellent tracks, too.
SOTSOG is more melodic, obviously, so I'd imagine that's why quite a few have voted for it.
But DOYS is bombastic, bold, and ambitious.
Tough call, but I think DOYS still slightly edges it.

Theres no Gas Panic! on DOYS so it's SOTSOG for me.

Both are lacking albums, but SOTSOG will stand the test of time more because the 'sound' of DOYS will not age well a bit like how DBBT sounds too raw in retrospect 5 years on.
Also for me DOYS has 3 killer tracks imo(Falling down, im outta time + bag it up)
Whilst SOTSOG has 4 killer tracks imo(Fukin in the bushes, go let it out, where did it all go wrong, gas panic)

DOYS gets my shout, i thought Oasis have turned the corner with this album. Gas Panic is epic, but SOTSOG is bit too miserable.

gotta be DOYS. Had some epics(Im outta time, Falling down) and rockers(Bag it up, Turning, Aint Got nothing). The only stand out tracks from SOTSOG were Gas Panic and Go Let It Out, the rest were either ok or just lazy(PYMWYMI,ICSAL). Overall, DOYS had a better flow and better musicianship

Tough one. Standing on the Shoulders of Giants has the better production, the better vocals, and the better lyrics. But DOYS has a more swaggering sound, plus a the more impressive ratio of good:bad songs. SOTSOG is really sank by those three bad tunes, and being their shortest record, their wasn't much margin for error.
I'd go with SOTSOG, but just by a nose.
Neither of them exist in the same universe as the band's 90's material.

DOYS.
SOTSOG has some barnburner songs but DOYS has far-better execution that gives it the edge. All the songs from the DOYS sound like one cohesive unit, whereas some SOTSOG songs sound unfinished and there isn't the same cohesion there. Not to mention, you can make a really good, realistic 11-track Oasis album with the DOYS songs. You can't with SOTSOG.

Not to mention, you can make a really good, realistic 11-track Oasis album with the DOYS songs. You can't with SOTSOG. Depends how far you're willing to stretch that definition. I think I'm right in saying that Noel had Little by Little already in 2000? If so, you could throw this together into a decent little album: 1. Fuckin' in the Bushes 2. Go Let it Out 3. Who Feels Love? 4. Little by Little 5. Cigarettes in Hell 6. Gas Panic! 7. Where Did it All Go Wrong? 8. Sunday Morning Call 9. Let's All Make Believe 10. Roll it Over Obviously you'd have to get Liam to sing more of the tracks (he could have owned Sunday Morning Call and Little by Little, for instance) and it's not eleven tracks, but it would have been decent enough. Some people will prefer Full On or One Way Road over Cigarettes in Hell, which is fair enough, but for some reason that song feels like a nice fit for me at the moment. |

I see your point about Cigarettes in Hell, too. It has that downbeat, downtrodden attitude that seems to surround SOTSOG. Having that go into Gas Panic! almost puts into perspective the whole idea, at that point in the album, of going to bed and waking up in the middle of the night with panics from trying to kick drugs. Little by Little even fits within that ("Little by little, gave you everything you dreamed of...the wheels of your life are slowly falling...I just ask myself why am I really here"). |
