So is it worth the buy? Also I think you guys are expecting too much, it's Oasis they're not really known for being groundbreaking or innovative.

It's not bad nothing remarkable, It's one of those cds where the best song is the single.

it's not that bad,but not that good either...i would say 5/10...?
i don't know about u guys but i find that their are too many songs where Noel sings lead.one or two songs like the first albums where ok,but i think now he is trying to hard to show that this is his band,but i think is obvious who is the better vocalist

I stopped comparing Oasis albums to Definitely Maybe a long time ago. I don't expect a new Oasis record to have as much impact as they used to but I think this album is the best they've done in a long time. It has a groove, the psychedelica is back, some of the songs seem to have some real balls about them compared to some of the weak crap thats been on their last few albums. Far from a perfect record, a long way from their best but the most welcome Oasis release in several years for me.

....................

Why would you think that? I think you have it the wrong way up. 14 years ago Noel Gallagher thought Oasis was his band. He joined the band under the condition that he wrote the songs because he was the most talented and all Liams songs were ****. He then wrote the first 3 records on his own and controlled every single aspect of the creative input in what they released. Now Liam has taught himself how to play the guitar and the songwriting duties are shared amongst the entire band.

my point exactly...now not only he is not the most charismatic performer in the band,now also the other members and not just Liam are writing material for the albums.Noel's reaction to this i think is singing lead to more songs then he should

Is that really a bad thing? I mean Noel does have a better vocal range than Liam.

well I don't know about that one..maybe you are right,I never really looked in to their vocal range..but I think you we all agree that better range doesn't mean better singer.look at Mariah Carrey.Liam can make the line "I'm feeling supersonic give me gin and tonic" sound like it means something.Noel is great don't get me wrong,but I enjoy Liam's voice better,and that is what I expect when I listen to an Oasis' album
