The people who say Oasis never experimented.
(What's The Story) Morning Glory was a departure from Definitely Maybe. The first album was an out an out air-guitar classic but for Morning Glory they experimented with ballads like Wonderwall and Cast No Shadow and also wrote Champagne Supernova which at the time was a very original song. NME in the original review didn't 'get it'.
Be Here Now saw Noel try and fill an entire album with 7minute+ epics, which is a brave move. He also experimentented with hip hop (a little) on D'you Know What I Mean?
If you tell me Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants is pedicatable Oasis then you can fuck off right now. That album was completely original. Fuckin' In The Bushes, Who Feels Love? and Gas Panic sound like nothing they've done before.
Letting Liam write songs was a brave move and certainly a risk.
So if anyone tells you Oasis never strayed outside a trademark sound set 'em straight.

Oasis weren't the most experimental band. I was so excited when DIV were working with them. It would have been awesome.
They never experimented much, but they did try new things.
Noel has an electeonic side to him though. Liking Goldie, Chemical Brothers, doing that Teotihucan thing and so on
Too bad he didn't incorporate that more into Oasis.

I agree that every oasis album has a different sound and feel to it. they have certainly tried different things but they have always been inside the beatles or some other classic band circle of influence... but I do think every album is so much different from the other ones. Maybe they're not as experimental as other bands but thy have always tried different things... they have never invented anything, I agree, but I completely disagree with the critics that say oasis are a very conservative band... I mean you don't necessarily have to go electronica to experiment....

Yeah Oasis never overdid experimentation like some bands. I mean Radiohead made two great albums and then started trying to be all 'intellectual' and wrote shit like Pyramid Song.

I think it would be pretty interesting to see him do an album of electronic music just as a side project to Oasis if he's not going to do a solo album of his usual style of songs. I quite like all of the electronic stuff he's done so far. |

Very true!Def Maybe was more full on rock while Morning Glory was more Beatle-esque.BHN definetly had it's epics and SotSoG was pretty expirimental.Not sure about HC being muct different then MG but DBTT is definetly different.

i agree...all the albums do have a different 'sound' to them. and if they dont experiment as much as other bands is because their first albums were so fucking amazing (which is a fact....even begrudgingly ackowledged by the people who hate oasis for all their arrogance or whatver) that why on earth would they want to lose that sound? progress, maybe...and i think from DM to DBTT has seen progress, but i wouldnt want them to become all electronic or anything because oasis is a rock n roll band. they never claimed to be anything else, and i think that is the way it should be.

I was thinking the same thing ;D I know! It definitley doesn't sound like a rock song though. There's blaring guitars but the structure doesn't sound very rock at all. Liam just speaks the vocals and there's plenty of sampling and sound effects. That was just a poor explanation of the fact that D'You Know What I Mean? is a melting pot of styles. |

Be Here Now saw Noel try and fill an entire album with 7minute+ epics, which is a brave move. He also experimentented with hip hop (a little) on D'you Know What I Mean? I think mate you could make a strong case that it wasn't such a brave move as much as an arrogant, coke-fuelled, dumb one. They basically fucked a lot of their fanbase with BHN. A lot of people talk about hip-hop on DYKWIM (as Noel is fond of saying "It started out as a hip-hop song") but I think you would be hard pressed to find any evidence of that in the final recording. It's still a great song, though. BHN isn't really an experiment or progression. It's Oasis doing Oasis with everything turned up to 11 and going for 72 minutes. If it HAD been a bit more experimental and a lot less self-indulgent the band would have come off looking a LOT better afterwards. |

The drums were supposed to be sampled from an NWA track. |
