I'm actually in the middle of doing a huge U turn here.....the album is really starting to grow on me as a whole.
I'll review it again after a few more listens, which could be a bit different to my earlier posts above...

I'll review it again after a few more listens, which could be a bit different to my earlier posts above... I hated what Oasis had become after around HC onwards. Apart from a few songs, they were boring and very much dying. NGHFB is edging slowly into new Noel territory, it's not a massive change but I think it's Noels music being reborn. There's something new and special just now about the concerts and music. |

No song in the world does tbh  But those two are choruses you want to sing along to,especially YKWCGB |

That's like saying Arctic Monkeys aren't a good band because they aren't the Beatles! |

I believe it was once voted for as Most Explosive Chorus ever or something Riverman doesn't really (to me), but YKWCGB does! That's such an enthusiastic song. |

Maybe I don't understand the definition of a big chorus though When is a chorus big? When you want to sing along with it? I always sing along with basically everything. |

I do too But when you can't help but sing along to it,and it does get struck in your brain after just a couple of listens,that's a big chorus I think |

The Mexican has grown on me big time. Love the guitar solo in the middle. Still think the crack line is silly but whatever.

I've always thought that The Mexican was the weakest song on the album, but since I've heard it live in Milan I'm not so sure about that. Sure, the lyrics are pretty bad but live it's a MONSTER.

This is an absoultely stunning album, I've only been a fan since DBTT but this is by far the best album thats come from either Gallagher in the last 10 years.
Riverman 8/10
In the Heat of the Moment 8/10
The Girl with X-Ray Eyes 8/10
Lock All the Doors 8.5/10
The Dying of the Light 9/10
The Right Stuff 8/10
While the Song Remains the Same 8.5/10
The Mexican 7.5/10
You Know We Can't Go Back 8/10
Ballad of the Mighty I 9/10
Leave My Guitar Alone 7.5/10
Do The Damage 8/10
Revolution Song 8/10
Freaky Teeth 8.5/10
ITHOTM Remix 6.5/10 (Should have just used Alone On The Rope)
Overall a VERY solid 8/10 from me, I just hope Noel keeps this up and hopefully treats us to another album in a year or two, not three or four.
PS more b-sides please.

The big chorus is when the song from the very beginning speaks to you: hi, i have big chorus, nevermind the verse, wait a second, the verse is nothing,, wait for the chorus, lalalalalala, here it comes, ok are you ready ? 1, 2, 3 , HERE IT IS LISTEN TO THAT CHORUS BITCH !
And you go, fuckin' hell what a chorus this song has.

Feeling a little bored with it already, but there is nevertheless, some really great stuff on it... I fully expect to still be listening to the likes of The Dying Of The Light and While The Song Remains The Same in ten years time.
In my opinion...
Riverman 9/10
In The Heat Of The Moment 8/10
The Girl With X-Ray Eyes 6/10
Lock All Doors 5/10
The Dying Of The Light 9/10
The Right Stuff 8/10
While The Song Remains The Same 9/10 (great little run of songs there...)
The Mexican 6/10
You Know We Can't Go Back 5/10
The Ballad Of The Mighty I 8/10
As I say, some smashing tunes, but for a ten track album penned by someone as good as Noel is, just like with HFB, there is an awful lot of filler for my liking. At least four tunes, only a few weeks after it came out, that I've already branded 'mediocre' and plan to seldom listen to from now on. Therefore, the fact that it IS my favourite Gallagher album since Be Here Now, does make me a little bit sad, I've got to say.
Overall, I'd give it a 7/10.
