Next month.
DBTT may have aged poorly, but so many fond memories of summer 2005 with DBTT the soundtrack. 15 Years!

One of the best oasis tours. Some great songs on the album.

It was popular with Lyla & Importance of Being idle, but everyone was listening to choppy indie disco you could dance to in skinny jeans at the time. Im sure it infuriated Liam. He spent most of the decade from 2001 onwards hardly saying anything onstage. They kept us entertained by slagging off every other band in music magazine interviews.
To most of the Twitter generation Z lot out there, Oasis only had 2 albums in the 90’s and split up after Knebworth 😁

I know some fans have gone off it, but id say it was the best of their last three. For consistency more than anything. To me, HC and DOYS have slightly higher peaks, but considerably lower duds.
Unlike those two, with DBTT i still regularly listen to other tracks besides the singles. Also the only album where i liked any of Andy or Gem’s album tracks.
But, each to their own.

How many Stones albums would you listen to after about 1970? |

How many Stones albums would you listen to after about 1970? Well me personally, quite a few as I’m a big Rolling Stones fan, but to the U.K. public probably not many. The general reputation here is that they were only good in the 60’s. But to the rest of the world it’s a different story where they get a lot more respect for their career as a whole |

This album reminds me of good times and summer fun, and the band getting to a stable point with things. I think this album is probably the most consistent in terms of songs which I appreciate but it could use better production at some points. Nonetheless, I still like a tracklisting like this these days:
Turn Up the Sun
Lord Don't Slow Me Down (Liam)
Lyla
Love Like a Bomb
The Importance of Being Idle
Eyeball Tickler
Guess God Thinks I'm Abel
Part of the Queue
Keep the Dream Alive
Let There Be Love
Can Y'See it Now? (I Can See it Now!)
Mucky Fingers was good but not good enough to be on over a fantastic Liam-sung/Noel-written song, Eyeball Tickler over The Meaning of Soul and A Bell Will Ring was obvious, and Can Y'See it Now? caps off the album and the openness of love and good feelings that LTBL signals toward. Crossfade between LTBL and Can Y'See it Now? and you got something good there to close out the album.

In a sense I almost feel this is oasis' white album. I feel like with the white album it was the seeds of each of the Beatles solo work. It feels like a bunch of great solo works instead of a collaboration.
I feel like apart from Lyla and Let there love it was either Noel contributions or LAG contributions. I'd be willing to bet from 2005 on there were Oasis songs where Noel was barely involved or not involved at all. For example, The Quiet Ones could have easily been BDI. The backing vox on some 2005- post songs sound like BDI and not Noel. I love DBTT but it is the band going in separate directions.

Yeah it hasn’t aged well but the summer of 2005 was a great time to be an Oasis fan. I loved DBTT when it came out and it holds very special memories for me.
Having witnessed the SOTSOG and HC fall out first hand it was great to hear them being talked about a relevant again. HC had some fairly success singles but obviously the album was panned and critically they were shunned as rock relics. I’d say after Glastonbury 04 there was no time which was less cool to be an Oasis fan.
DBTT offered a way forward. When I first heard songs like Mucky Fingers and TIOBI, whilst of course they’re heavily influenced by the past I didn’t ever think I’d hear an Oasis song sound like them. We take TIOBI for granted a bit now but at the time it was cool as fuck. Great sound, great song, great video. People who at the time were ‘indie snobs’ who dismisses Oasis as derivative rubbish, we’re loving this song and it ended countless indie discos.
The tour was great, two number one singles, best album of the year awards. I’ve got nothing but good memories of this album. With that said it is my 2nd least favourite (after HC of course)

Time flies.
DBTT was the first Oasis album after I got into the band.
I've experienced all the hype before/around/after the release and saw the band for the first time twice on this tour. Good times.

Fantastic summer album , great times and great tour, don’t get the it hasn’t aged we’ll comment very fresh basic production and some great songs on it , plus it sold really well ..as for the stones comments it’s 2020 and we still listen and discuss them and they still sell out world tours and millions of albums ..to say nobody listens to stuff after 1970 is poor judgment

It really wasn't much different than Heathen Chemistry creatively. It had big singles and half the album is really strong. Naturally there are some duds. Same for Heathen Chemistry. This time around the window dressing was different. The vibe was sunnier. It colored a better picture for whatever reason. I enjoyed 2005 immensely for Oasis. Great summer tour. Fun singles. Band seemed to like each other.

Ok the Topman wearing public might not of been just yet. But Babyshambles, Razorlight, Kaiser Chief’s, Bloc Party, Franz Ferdinand etc all definitely were |

Was listening to it the other day on one of my hour-a-day walks in the glorious sunshine and it sounded great.
Turn Up The Sun: Fantstic song. The only thing Andy Bell contributed of any worth to the album.
Mucky Fingers: Gets a lot of hate. I like it. Not poetry but its a decent rocker. Noel doesn't do enough of these any more.
Lyla: Tune. Fell in love with the name ever since this single was released.
Love Like A Bomb: Not brilliant, but it has an innocence to it.
The Importance of Being Idle: My favourite on the album. My go to song on the guitar. I feel like this song defines me. Adore everything about it.
The Meaning of Soul: Another decent rocker. It isn't Live Forever, but it is a decent tune.
Guess God Think's I'm Abel: Liam's best Oasis tune? It's up there.
-------------------------
This is where the album loses it's way.
-------------------------
Part of the Queue: Decent but only just.
Keep The Dream Alive: Liam's vocal grates on me here. It is a nice tune, but just isn't an Oasis song.
A Bell Will Ring: I love Gem, but some of his tunes are proper gash. This being one of them.
-------------------------
Let There Be Love: Prefer the tempo of the demo, but it is a lovely song.

Don’t need to. Still got my Music magazines 2003/04/05, covered in skinny jean wearing bands. Pete Doherty & Johnny Borrell probably being the most famous at LIVE 8 Hype Park July 2005 |

Pete Doherty & Johnny Borrell probably being the most famous at LIVE 8 Hype Park July 2005 Skinny jeans first spread to men's fashion in 2008. This has continued into the 2010s, entering the mainstream fashion in 2011. Since then, they have remained popular and eventually became one of the decade's defining fashion pieces for both men and women. en.m.wikipedia.org › wiki |

I love Part of the Queue, my fave song from this era, it sounds like what Noel would do in his solo career. Also there is a percussion played by Lenny Castro on the solo that you can barely hear, you have to turn up the volume to hear it.
