Good find. Found it in this cool book. interesting. A Series of Shock Slogans and Mindless Token Tantrums

Don’t be deceived when they tell you things are better now. Even if there’s no poverty to be seen
because the poverty’s been hidden. Even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more
of these new and useless goods which industries foist on you and even if it seems to you that that
you never had so much, that is only the slogan of those who still have much more than you. Don’t
be taken in when they pat you paternally on the shoulder and say that there’s no inequality worth
speaking of and no more reason to fight because if you believe them they will be completely in
charge in their marble homes and granite banks from which they rob the people of the world under
the pretence of bringing them culture. Watch out, for as soon as it pleases them they’ll send you out
to protect their gold in wars whose weapons, rapidly developed by servile scientists will become
more and more deadly until they can with a flick of the finger tear a million of you to pieces.
Jean Paul Marat, died 1793

Im intrigued to find out who from the band is into such progressive mental thoughts on society? Could it be Liam? Probably Andy.

I was thinking maybe they just got the idea from The Style Council since they put the same quote on the back of their Cafe Bleu LP. It wouldn't be a stretch since Liam's a fan of Paul Weller too.

But it's definitely an interesting choice anyway. Makes me curious about the rest of the songs on this new album and whether they'll contain more political material like this as well.

I wouldn't want the entire album to politically heavy, but I am quite please so far with this song and its political undertones. Our society as a collective whole is in a current state of Keeping up with the Kardashians; consume, consume CONSUME. With corporations laughing all the way to bank and our natural resources in dismal amounts. Rock n Roll is suppose to insight an array of feelings and expressions, I feel at this time that songs that can potentially awaken someone to the evils government leaders propagate among its citizens and start a movement to stop The Man, is a step in the right direction. People are starting to wake up, albeit very slowly

Had no idea of that. I really like the quote, I think it speaks volumes, more and more everyday. Should get it on a t-shirt or something.

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: spooky! Oct 17, 2024 8:13:01 GMT -5
