*Tsk* Not too crazy about any Noel song that exceeds 4-5 minutes. They tend to
be over produced and a bit bland. They just don't age too well in my opinion.
DYKWIM and CS are good examples.

owen morris totally fucked up any reputation he had with that album IMO.
as senior producer, he should have had the balls to step in and point
out it was getting silly at points, but he obviously didn't. plus
points are DYKWIM and DGA. MBM, SBM, FIO, BHN, AATW and ITBM are more
good than bad but still needing adjusting in places. the rest should
have been taken off and replaced.

oasis must share the blame if they are to share in god's love, though, be
serious. i don't think he did a good job producing, but it's just that
there's an inkling of the (preferable to us ...) original oasis sound on
that lp. overrun by shit, yeh, but something that they've lost with either
spike or a self produced lp.

***I'm just praying that you were only being sarcastic. I'm not going to get
into how over-produced BHN is because its been discussed to death. You have
your opinion and I have mine. The only proper songs on that album (in MY
opinion) are DGA and BHN. Its just the least listened to Oasis album in my
collection. =)

but there wasn't the songs on SOTSOG was there? personally i think
spike did a good job on SOTSOG although saying that, he done fuck all
really cos noel's demos are really similar in terms of production. as
for this album, i think it sounds great - can't find any obvious faults
apart from bits of hindu times and force of nature.

still wouldn't have him back though. he's had his turn and i'd like to
see someone different have a go. and the oasis sound today doesn't
really sound that different does it? nor do the songs.

i think bringing in gem and andy was the best thing they ever done, to
be honest. not just cos they're better guitar players but cos they
offer more to the band. in terms of writing decent songs and having the
technical knowhow in the studio. plus they have better hair. and andy
is keeping the beard dream alive now that noel's betrayed it.

bonehead and guigs - session musicians. well they were really weren't
they? judging by the oasis books i read, they had approx 0% of input
into any of the songs oasis ever did. and live - they just done their
thing, adequately enough, but you couldn't say it revolved round
bonehead or guigs at any time could you?


> an, yeh, technical ability's a gayer - is there much debate that the

not really on about anything sounding better but cos they know how the
studio works. take liam's songs for example, if he'd wanted to get them
demoed, he's have had to wait for noel to get his arse in gear and,
judging by listening to the radio 2 documentary, liam's for more keener
to get stud recorded than noel is. so, with andy and gem and with
johnny marr, liam went and done his own songs. or when noel bailed out
of the 2000 european tour - they still carried on without him. my point
is that oasis can still function as a band without having to wait for
noel to be ready. not for a minute suggesting they couldn't do it
without noel there permanently, cos it wouldn't be oasis without noel
there.

bullshit man! that's my favorite track on the album. what's not to like? it's
got a good chord progression, a great melody, nice gritty love song
lyrics...not too sentimental, an excellent vocal from Liam...and as a bonus,
some groovy small faces-ish electric piano at the end.....

it is true. they could be better than they were though, with bonehead and
guigs, but i just don't think they were arsed enough. out they step and in
step two guys who have been through many bands. technical ability and
experience isn't really a match for raw intent.

i think they're getting a bit conservative as they get older. the sound is
just all wrong! and some of the songs are there, perhaps more so than
standing, but it isn't as good because it doesn't sound right.

if you think my opinion has changed slightly, it probably has. i've been
debating this with a cup full of mould i found under my bed and i haven't
decided proper yet.

only rough and raw cos they couldn't aford better equipment. it was
their first album on an independant album - they were never going to be

and if you're going to be captain credibility, then don't just dismiss my
legitimate conversational point!

which way'd you argue on whether the sound (not the songs, not the delivery,
nothing like that) of the first two lps is better than the last three?

agree on the sound being wrong. this last lp particularly, and be here now
...
too much lennon solo tribute on this one, and guitar knobbing instead of
tunes. it just seems like the original songs were built on something, a
riff or whatever, and the majority of these were written either as chord
after chord to_write_a_song ...

i'd go for that ...
there's more bad production than good production, and it ruined things like
the lennon lps ... double fantasy sound terrible on record, but listening to
the original acoustic demos of things like woman's completely different.
mavers is our reference point for this mail - i read an interview the other
week where he fished out a tape of him in front of a tape player playing
la's songs, to give to the interviewer. there's something you get from
that, part of the sound, that you don't get in a shiny studio environment

chordy chordy chordy verse chorus middle 8 blah de blah de blah. I think

DM sounds absolutely horrid, I can hardly stand that album anymore, had it
on yesterday. bar married With Children and Live Forever i think the sound
is horrible.

Morning Glory sounds absolutely gorgeous, except Roll With It which sounds
awkward

BHN sounds Ok, few too many overdubs and a bit long but the sound is not
tooooo bad

SOTSOG, as horrible as DM, maybe a little horribler. the choir noises, the
keyboards, the nasty guitar sounds, the vocals eeeeeuuuuugggghhhhh

HC is much better, comes second to MG in terms of sound. The guitars sound
nice, everythings nicely mixed (except FON and AITM) and the bloody choirs
not there. Quite like the Lennon Delay vocals thing, in moderation

i think there's a definite guitar sound on definitely maybe, is fucking
waves between noel and bonehead, it sounds magic, but on this one there's
too many bits like that plucky stretched bit in little by little. it all
sounds arkward and deliberate to me.

noel's lyrics, too ...
aren't as keen on them on this lp. little by little again a bit of an
obvious example, not just the first two lines, the lot. i think he used to
be naturally pretty poetic (fade away, spaceman, columbia, take me away)

i'm all for low quality production though. it shows where the good and bad
songs are at least, no one can then be jaded by fancy studio work.

a pearl drum kit, a couple epiphone les pauls and some cheapo marshall amps
would be the don. instead of using amps no one has ever bloody heard of.
what the fuck is a clarke tyger anyway?

<<too much lennon solo tribute on this one, and guitar knobbing instead of
tunes. it just seems like the original songs were built on something, a
riff or whatever, and the majority of these were written either as chord
after chord to_write_a_song ...>>

I agree......they seem much less tune based than they used to. though i'm not
sure what you mean about the "chord after chord" bit.....Noel has always
written chord progressions first, then a melody, then lyrics

<<what'd you think of the rest of the lp?>>

I quite like BHN apart from magic pie......It's my second favorite album behind
DM. Maybe it's because I love layered guitars that I dig the
production.......also could be because I'm a big Phil Spector fan, and I'm
really into to a massive, powerful wall of sound. I don't really like subtle
music.....and production, let's put it that way. I'm bothered by the length of
a few tracks....but not to the point that it ruins the album. I loved the
album ever since I first bought it....and it stayed in my stereo for about 3
straight months. I loved it because it was a proper rock album, with songs
that flowed together perfectly and cohesively....it didn't feel like 5 singles
with some filler like MG did....and I knew it would alienate a lot of the pop
fans of Morning Glory....which to me sounds very glossy, and polished....I
can't stand the production on that. Whereas Be Here Now may sound
massive.....but it's also still pretty sloppy, and raw......which keeps it a
rock n' roll album.

<<rough and raw would be good. remember how raw DM sounds? now days, there's
not nearly enough distortion and they're using rubbish amps.>>

that's not quite true......songs like force of nature, hung in a bad place,
hindu times, better man etc....uses just as much, or more distortion than there
is on DM. The guitar sounds are thicker and heavier now......proper beefy rock
tones. Definitely Maybe had rather trebley, jangly guitar work....a bit like
the La's or the Roses......listen closely, it's really not that heavy....and
the guitars aren't even mixed that high.....they're sort of just chiming away
in the background. Anyway, Be Here Now has their most rock n' roll guitar
work...

naah! The one thing I'll say about BHN is that it doesn't have a stand out
track a la Live forever or Supersonic, which in my weird logic also works in
its favour. Cos really, whatever track you put next to something like Live
forever, it's gonna sound shit, isn't it? It's a theory of mine, that if
Shakermaker and Up in the sky were not the tracks before and after Live
forever, people might rate them higher.

I think the quality of the songs on BHN is constant throughout and there's
not a single track on this album that I consider shit, in fact TGITDS was
one of my early favourites, along with IHITIK. But each to his own or
however that saying goes

> thirty tracks of guitar my arse ...

The only track that does take it too far IMO is IGBM. That track should have
been no longer than 4 mins. Everything else is fine by me.

I don't get it. You're not the first person I've heard say this.

3 years is a long time to be listening to a band that's only done 3 decent
songs (In YOUR opinion). So why are you still here? To bring everyone else

yeah exactly, you don't get it. people can have an opinion about things,
sometimes it's different from yours. it's perfectly legal. if i bring you down
by stating mine then i'm really terribly sorry. it's just my opinion.
if you can't handle it then perhaps you're the one who should consider going

I wouldn't. All five lps sound different, cos they were recorded at
different times under different circumstances. If HC sounded like DM,
Oasis would be fakes. Is that what you want?

Having an opinion isn't the issue was trying your raise. It's that you've
held your opinion for 3 years, and still you come here.

I'm not being sarcastic, BHN is battling with MG for third favourite Oasis
album for me (1. DM, 2. The Masterplan) - but as you said, it's a matter of
opinion and taste, and these are known to differ

it's wank reasons that annoy me. like "well the songs are alright but

i was asking if anyone thought the last three oasis lps sound better than
the first two. not to prove that MY OPINION IS RIGHT, but out of curiosity.

gay off.
it keeps cropping up in your post that i want definitely maybe again - i
don't, i've got it, i want something good. i'm just complaining about the
badness of it, i've enough rants stating that -it doesn't matter what kind
of music it is, if it's good it's good- to corroborate that. they can go
disco if they want, if it's good it's good, if it's bad it's bad.

oh, YEH, cos sarcasm's REALLY FUNNY ...

was rambling on about this to a mate last night after seeing one of those
dress up common room grungy-guitar bands that try and be a bit bluesy ...

i don't really dig comparisons, but i think that putting a fast guitar based
tune like hung in a bad place or full on against a fast guitar based tune
like headshrinker or fade away is pretty worthwhile, just cos it's - well,
this one's better than that one!, or whatever you think.

yeah, but what i'm saying is that HIABP isn't made any better or worse
by anything that headshrinker has. i believe that each and every song
should be judged on it's own merits and not be weighed down by pointless
comparisons.

Overdosed on Teletubbies, ferris bueller thought it'd be a good idea to

Heh, thanks. I hope Jamie finally understands what I was on about too. I
wasn't comparing any songs with the above statement, just trying to say why
I think people often rate Shakermaker and Up in the sky as bad songs. While
I don't think they are great, I like to listen to them every once in a
while.

yeh - more than see your point matey. all this on our side just comes from
frustration because i don't think they've done themselves justice. fuck
knows though, it's just me moaning.

i just don't understand anyone thinking they're not great - the sound of
shakermaker, guitars on it, and the vocal of up in the sky particularly.
might put it on in fact.

Don't shush me; I fought in the baggy wars of '89 so you could wear
those appalling flares. Show a bit of respect.

FFS... no, I don't think the first two albums sound BETTER than the last
three, just DIFFERENT. If Oasis made five albums over a period of eight
years that all sounded the same, they'd be faking it. Get it? No, I
didn't think so. Let me spell it out for you...

When they made DM, Oasis were a bunch of unemployed scallies from
Burnage dreaming of becoming rock'n'roll stars. And that's exactly what
DM sounds like.

When they made MG, Oasis were bona-fide rock'n'roll stars living the
dream of a million working-class kids with tennis rackets. And that's
exactly what MG sounds like.

When they made BHN, Oasis were a bunch of working-class millionaires
with country houses and chocolate-coloured Rolls-Royces. And that's
exactly what BHN sounds like.

When they made SOTSOG, Oasis were a band disillusioned with the
shallowness of fame and falling out of love with their wives and each
other. And that's exactly what SOTSOG sounds like.

When they made HC, Oasis were wounded souls finding redemption in simple
rock'n'roll music again after years of marriage break-ups, lewd tabloid
headlines and copious drug-taking. And that's exactly what HC sounds
like.

So, in summary: why should I moan about the last three Oasis albums,
when they sound exactly how they're supposed to sound?

Er... does that involve anal sex with a man? Or would fancying Tim
Burgess suffice?

> don't, i've got it,


So why do you compare everything Oasis ever record to DM? Why can't you
judge each Oasis album on its own merits instead of being an arse and
saying if it ain't as good as DM, what's the point?


> i want something good.


"Heathen Chemistry" IS good. It's you that's crap.

But you rate The Music and think The Streets are shit. By that logic,
you saying the last three Oasis lps are rubbish is actually a pretty
good recommendation.

In that case, you should follow your own logic and compare The Music's
debut album next to Led Zeppelin (I) and The Stone Roses, and conclude
that The Music are indeed rubbish.
