Haha what a mess. Each to own. Move on, Oasis are over. For the moment. Everyone knows they'll be back in 5 years. And I guarantee every idiot here who is coming out with all these ''logical'' statements about why Oasis should remain dead will be punching the air when that news breaks. I'd give up all future Noel Gallagher songs to be able to go to more Oasis concerts in the future. (And the best of both worlds can easily be managed) Live Forever. I would be massively dismayed if Oasis reformed, particularly after Chasing Yesterday. I have no desire to hear Liam sing anything with his voice the way it is now. You can listen to the last 3 Oasis records while I listen to HFB/CY and we'll see who has a better time. A reunion is exactly what all the casual music fans EXPECT Noel to do, much better for him to show he can have a great career without Oasis and reveal himself as the creative talent he is.

I can see a time when Oasis play TCT in a few years. Maybe bring back original members for a night for charity, etc, too.
But please, please no more Oasis albums.

I'd give up all future Noel Gallagher songs to be able to go to more Oasis concerts in the future. (And the best of both worlds can easily be managed) Live Forever. Mark this post and my words. I WILL NOT BE EXCITED for an Oasis reunion. Of course I'd go to the show, I'm a fan but I'd prefer if Noel remains solo and Liam begins his own solo career. Oasis was a great ride but that trip is over. I still have no clue why some people believe that they will sound like 1996. Liam's voice has been repaired somewhat because it has had time to rest, but in the middle of tours it just becomes like someone put their foot on a goat's neck and forced it to sing classic Oasis songs. Liam was the biggest setback post SOTSOG (He does sound good on it in my opinion), plus mediocre songwriting from him and other members, and Noel losing creative efforts with some of his own tunes, like High Horse Lady, very bad. With HFB and this terrific album, we're all experiencing a live rejuvenation of someone who has proven their genius in their craft, but has fallen short over the years. Its has if Noel has a new lease on life. Where Beady Eye stared straight at the past for inspiration (which killed them as a band), Noel is looking forward while giving nods to what was.

Haha I don't want to listen to the last 3 Oasis records. Tbh I haven't listened to HFB in a year...and while this CY is great... it's staying power will wane too. But having all of this under the Oasis moniker would be fine. Either way, the reunion gigs are coming within a few years. FACT. It just comes down to the fact that FOR ME the excitement of going to Oasis gig cannot be matched by whatever Noel or Liam come out with. And I think after listening to CY... Noel is starting to thaw as regards this idea. That's all this thread was seeking to discuss.

But the likelihood of it happening is much more likely after CY than it was after HFB... at least that is how it appears to me... and indeed what this whole thread was aimed to be about.

If they don't reunite and they put albums out i'm ok If they reunite I'm ok either.
I've never seen Oasis live and I think it is pretty easy for you guys, that you've been to 2405 gigs, to say "Oasis are over". Yes, Oasis are over. Now, in 5 years.. who knows?
I want to see them live, that's sure, because they're the only one who can play Supersonic, Rock N Roll Star, Don't Look Back In Anger, Champagne Supernova etc. But if they'll never reform that's okay.

Trust me, I'd be happy with a reunion... however only on the condition that Noel writes 90% of the songs and Liam is able to sing to a decent and consistant standard again. Either way though we get Noel tunes so I'm currently happy as things are.

Umm... No. And has Liam sung it this year? Send me a recording I would be glad to know what he sounds like. It's called using your imagination - a shit Liam voice still beats Noel's for these types of tracks. Ha ha maybe theoretically on record but he'd butcher it live

Heard Noel's album yesterday for the first time, only heard twice up to now. It sounds great!
As for what it means for oasis. First does it have to mean anything for oasis? Oasis split up ages ago, BE came and went, Noel has recorded two or more albums since. Today oasis don't exist so I think it means nothing for a former band who management is currently interested in the bands legacy (chasing the sun, knebworth).
What's does it mean for a possible oasis reunion? Well I think it's safe to say that Noel going back to oasis would be an even worse move than releasing the AA album. Haha. I seriously can not understand why anyone would want an oasis reunion. It is well know that oasis were no longer a valid creative vehicle for Noel. Every idea that went beyond Beatles/Stones/Who stream was shot down. You can particularly tell on this album that Noel has expanded his songwriting, even though I think he could further and tends to still play it safe some times, but nothing compared to how derivative oasis post 2000 could be. If carrying on so long was bad for the legacy of the band a reunion tour with in the next 10 would be surly just be a joke. Plus I really don't believe Liam is capable of pulling it off now.
I personally prefer Noel carrying on with HFB and even have some more projects going on at once (highly unlikely). Liam needs to validate himself on his own as well, as I have said the often mentioned collaboration album would be a great way to do it. But if oasis were to get back together for some shit reason like to pay Liam's legal bills it would be fuckin awful and most contradictory to the oasis manifest, which died after bonehead and guigs left the band. If you're going to do it for the money do it atleast 25 or 30 years after the split on a one off thing!
Still think Noel has more to show on his own, I'd feel going back to oasis would be like admitting defeat, and juding from Chasing Yesterday Noel ain't any where near defeat.
Cheers

I haven't heard Chasing Yesterday but I already know it's better than latter Oasis..... because I'd rather hear nothing than shite like Ain't Got Muffins, To Be Where There's Life and Nature of Reality.
Who in their right mind would dispense hard earned cash for half baked albums which, at a maximum, are only worthy of an EP (and even then, the Some Might Say EP would piss all over an EP consisting of the best Dig Out Your Soul tracks) over a full album of Noel written songs?
It's insane. Oasis SUCKED big time at the end.

i'm fully convinced that if oasis ever did reform at this point it would be nothing more than a couple of 'greatest hits' shows, possibly for charity. dig out your soul had a few good songs on it, but none of those songs had the crystal-clear ambition, inspiration and enthusiasm that rings out loud and clear on chasing yesterday. So the status quo? Oasis had been doing the "greatest hits" tour since SOTSOG. That got old fast. I admire what bands like Pearl Jam, REM, U2 and Radiohead do for their fans. Varied setlists. Longer shows. Lead singer still sounds the same in 2015 as they did in 1995. Pearl Jam should be the model for all bands to follow IMO. They do 3 hour shows. Between 30-35 songs. No setlist is ever like the one before it. Anything can and will be played from their back catalogue. Plus they are notorious for doing random cover songs. And they record all their shows for fans to download days later with cool artwork. What's better than that? Do I need another DOYS/DBTT style Oasis tour? No I don't. Not if its goig to impact Noel's solo career and release pattern. I just don't see what Oasis has left to give at this point except to make fans who never saw them live happy. But that's not even the same Oasis I fell in love with in 1995. I personally feel Noel will stick to his guns like Weller, Marr and Morrissey.

What future of Oasis? They broke up 6 years ago and had been plodding along for about 6 more years before that. Who wants that to come back? Latter Oasis reminds me of the fat, lazy Elvis dying on the toilet, as opposed to 90s Oasis who were the jiving, hip shaking uber charismatic young Elvis. Who the hell wants to see a fat, lazy dying Elvis?

I sometimes have my doubts if Noel will cave and give into the reunion bullshit. Also spot on with Pearl Jam, not their biggest fan personally, but if you are going to carry on you have to do it like that. Another oasis tour with the same set list every night and with Liam sounding like shit three weeks in, is depressing. It was all so predictable.

I don't want Oasis back, they were dying a slow horrible death. Noels song writing sounded lazy and stifled. He's rejuvenated and now sounds like he's having fun writing and producing great stuff. Oasis were great but they've had their day.

YEAH...
Now please tell us exacty where in the lyrics Noel has hidden references to Liam and Oasis.
Cause "Chasing Yesterday" is OBVIOUSLY about Liam and the reunion. If you play "The Right Stuff" backwards you can hear Noel sing "Oh Brother, let's reunite Oasis, I'll even let you sing the verses of 'Lock All The Doors' we'll get Guigs and Bonehead. Let's do it for all the people who think it's still 1995."
For Christ's sake, get over it, people!

I personally think 'Dig Out Your Soul' is in with a good shout at being Oasis's 3rd best album, I didn't think they were dying at all... albums '8' & '9' would just have been a 3:1 split between 'High Flying Birds' and 'Beady Eye' material anyway which is pretty consistent with their post '(WTS)MG?' material. They plained from 'Be Here Now' IMO... no big ups or downs.

Oasis were great but they've had their day. I'm at a loss, really. Can we all agree that having Liam and Noel on stage performing Oasis songs is epic? Can we all agree that CY is a great album (but obviously won't impact the world as DM/MG did)? Can we all agree Noel Gallagher is in a fine form of songwriting at the moment. Isn't having Oasis doing concerts around the world with Noel Gallagher penning 90%+ of the songs the dream? (Liam can always do a side-project or contribute songs if it is deemed worthy by Noel - either way, I'm sure he'll find a way to record his material if he believes in strongly enough.) Can we all agree that Noel's attitude to the possibility of reuniting with Liam slightly better than it was a few years ago?

I agree, however I'd probably stick 2 in 'NGHFB' and 1 in 'Chasing Yesterday'. Not the silly 3:1 splits they were agreeing to.
