I think their britpop era is well and truly over - which is okay, I think by the Great Escape they had pretty much exhausted all they had there.
Blur 13 and Think Tank don't have too much in common, plus a massive break means there won't be much of a clue as to their new sound.

I'm thinking 13 in the lack of cohesion between songs and themes - although I doubt they'd get as experimental as that again.

Under The Westway is more of a Britpop effort so I was wondering whether they would lean towards that - it's got that whole London centric feel to it in the lyrics, so I was wondering whether they'd take a middle aged, yearning look at English life - you know, contrasting it with the sprightly young ones from their Britpop efforts.

It's possible. I'm only speculating, I would just imagine that as musicians they are mostly past that - and that Under the Westway/The Puritan was more of a single for the fans.

I think Blur fans are more bitter toward Oasis than otherwise.

I'm not the biggest fan, but I do enjoy pretty much all of their albums, especially Parklife, Think Tank, and 13. I managed to catch them at Coachella this year, they really are fantastic live. Probably up there in my top five favorite shows ever!

Oasis:
Pearl Concert Theater, Las Vegas - 12.6.2008

Beady Eye:
House of Blues, Boston - 12.10.2011

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds:
Wang Theater, Boston - 11.12.2011
Boston Opera House, Boston - 6.6.2015
Governors Ball, New York - 6.7.2015

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
