Can someone update the wikipedia DGSS page and put musiek.nl score?? It's good publicity to have good ratings in there.

On Wikipedia, it says FHM gave it 5/5 and Loaded gave it 4/5. Which is right?

On Wikipedia, it days FHM gave it 5/5 and Loaded gave it 4/5. Which is right? It was Loaded that gave the 5/5 review, should be fixed now...

Swedish music magazine Sonic; 4/10
You have to see this positively. Oasis stop, the whole group minus Noel Gallagher goes on and do something completely different. Something new. It is the last piece we will concentrate on. As Gallagher, the elderly accounted for the most important factor in Oasis (and there were quite a few), it is actually pretending that Beady Eye is a whole new group. So, we Suppose Liam Gallagher, Andy Bell from Ride and the other two that you never remember the names of an entirely new, untested configuration. They called beady eye, and this is their debut. It is possible, if there is an effort. So how does the debut of this new band? Nothing further.
A song title like "the Beatles and Stones" speaks for itself, but the funny thing is that beady eye never end up really close to the two given sixty giants. Instead, let "Different Gear, Still Speeding" as a disc recorded by a dull The Who cover band.
Which means straight up and down rock with windmill riffs and heavy The Ox-bass lines. Nothing is more exciting, all ticks in the same well beaten pen where Liam Gallagher amble throughout his life. What is most surprising is that he sounds more negative and angry, as he has nothing to prove on his own (he has).
Beady Eye coats on without any nerve, but necessity. "For Anyone" is a nice little trifle, opening "Four Letter Word" will sound superb live. The rest? Hmm. It's never really bad. Just sad. Uninteresting. Lyrically, it's a disaster. When will Noel's solo album?

Every swedish review is basically shit, not only the Oasis related ones. But here it seems to be accepted, and in some cases embraced, to hate a band or artist that your'e reviewing. And that seems to be the case with every Oasis review, and now Beady Eye, since BHN (Wich most critics loved then, but has bashed as one of the worst albums in history these last few years). 2/5 is about the same as every oasis album since 1997, exept for HC, the album where everybody jumped on the fuckin' bandwagon and said the boys were back to form. Makes me hate that album even more!

All the Swedish reviewers are very influenced by the ironic style of Pitchfork. Horrendously useless. Was contactmusic the 1/10 review? I actually forgot about to put it there

The Stevenage Gazette said it was more entertaining than the Chuckle Brothers' Christmas Panto 1987.

The news of the world gives it a positive review today, 4 out of 5 stars and says: Liam can thrive without Noel and this proves it. With more variety than than any of oasis's last albums and with Liam singing properly again. It's a colourful journey through rocks past with an energy that's bang upto date..............spot on that for me, exactly my thoughts on the album & beady eye
