I used to be a big Oasis fan until I discovered Neil Young & the likes.
They were the first proper band I ever got into when I was about 13 or 14.
I have since 'grown up' as they say and opened up to a much wider range of music extending out to Jazz & Avant Garde.
I am now able to listen to actual 'noise' and it doesnt bother me lol (a guy called Merzbow comes to mind).
I remeraber Be Here Now used to be my favourite Oasis album at one point.
Dont get me wrong Im still into some 'Britpop' (more recentley Suede, whom I used to loathe) & my beloved Cast of course.
I suppose Oasis are not (or werent) a bad band for the average indie music fan but I have since realised that there is nothing really in their music to relate to. Especially their lyrics are total bollocks.
It was mainly just the tunes.
Also I think a lot of their 'popularity' is more so based on their attitude and image other than any musical 'genius' which is so often falsely claimed.
I still have all the old albums but I cant stand to listen to them now (cant handle the vocals and surprisingly I personally find the music bland & boring now-perhaps due to my venture into Metal & other genres(which for me are more exciting).
Also I agreed with the guy from Bloc Party (whom I dont really like either) when he said that Oasis made 'stupidity' hip.
Its interesting to see that people are still talking about them though lol

I liked Heathen Chemistry & Dont Believe The Truth.
I couldnt understand why at first but since I stopped listening to them and they fell out of my taste I have attributed it to their lack of diversity or evolution (i.e. every album sounRAB pretty much the same)


I think most of their albums were recorded on Cocaine & the album length is pretty much irrelevant to me.
In relation to your comment perhaps it would be fair to judge Oasis as a singles band. (others in my opinion are The Smiths & other Britpop banRAB).



I kinda noticed :bowdown:... Dont worry youll come out of it and realise how crap they are lol. My advice is get some Neil Young. The album which got me 'out of' Oasis so to speak was 'Sleeps With Angels'.
Anyway even if you do still like them fair enough.
I just crave more intense/experimental/innovative/creative/meaningful/interesting music these days.

The Flaming Lips in 1993...I would have killed to see them in their formative days (well...not so formative since they started in 1983 but they changed a lot). That was right when Transmissions from the Satellite Heart was coming out. I would just love to be able to compare shows from then and now after they have done things like Yoshimi.

I still have hope that he may, at some point, turn around and put out something really surprising/awesome. The man does have a history of writing really great things that never see the light of day*, so it's always possible...

*Eg: the acoustic set at the Metro in 2004 ("Riverview," "The World's Fair," etc). That would've made a fine solo album practically as it stanRAB, but instead he goes all sub-Depeche Mode on TheFutureErabrace. *sigh*
