The best he's sounded on record since Dig Out Your Soul easily for me. He sounds brilliant. I was listening to “The Shock of The Lightning” the other day and that song has such huge fucking balls and bravado to it. So much of Oasis music between 2000 and 2005 was missing this excitement. Everyone sounds great on this track.

Still love his voice and the album is a waste of a great rock singer. I disagree. I think his vocals on The River, Gone and Once are better than anything on DGSS. But of course, it's all a matter of opinion.

Did anybody else who bought the album on Amazon get a digital download card? I have never received a vinyl album without a digital download card along with it. But I did not get one with WMWN. If you login to your amazon music account its in there automatically. When i bought As You Were it was automatically added to my Amazon Account. It’s in my Amazon Music account too (not main Amazon store account) The Invisible Sun ....not that I ever use it.

Liam's vocals sound synthetic, almost robotic in places. So different to how he sounds live. The true essence of his vocal can be captured on record and done well, for example, in Scorpio Rising.

It's funny to see a lot of people are now starting to criticize the album, Liam's voice, lyrics, production, etc. I remember vividly when the album came out, everyone was banging about it like it's Definitely Maybe or The Dark Side of the Moon. Some of them even gave the album 10/10. Now the hype has died down, these people are back to reality and have come to their senses. I got attacked here and there for disagreeing with the albums' reviews and posts here but at the end of the day, I was right

Why Me Why Not is 6/10. Nothing more, nothing less. I can name 50 albums released this year that are far superior than it, even Billie Eilish's new album is more rock'n' roll.

I think 7/10 with the bonus tracks in and the stinkers out is fair. If you take it as a pop-collab album. It's not a rock n roll record, that's for sure. There's a lot of bad things on this record (liam's over edited voice, mastering...etc), but there is also some good moments. The fanbase is forever divided between the people who just want tunes and the other who wanted more, I guess.

Maybe few people posted in a row that share similar feelings about the album.

The only thing really funny here is that a few members who don't like the album are constantly posting about it. Yes, we all know you dislike WMWN, please stop posting about it every fucking day.
You can see on Rateyourmusic, on Metacritic, on the poll created in this forum: this new album has the better reviews and the higher scores of all Gallagher's releases post WTSMG along with the first Noel Album.
Liam is right now one of the biggest stars in the UK, one of the more succesfull artist of his age. I know is very hard for you...but you should accept it and move on

I think 7/10 with the bonus tracks in and the stinkers out is fair. If you take it as a pop-collab album. It's not a rock n roll record, that's for sure. This feels fair. It's a good record, definitely not rock n roll though. To be honest sinc the Oasis split I'm not sure how many actual rock n roll songs either Gallagher released - I'm guessing with Beady Eye, HFB and Liam solo the total is around 10 or 12. And the best songs from both are often far away from rock n roll. Liam talks about being a rock star all the time, but I like that he has matured as a person and as a singer. The worst Oasis album by far was when they desperately tried to recreate that sound from their past.
