Oasis - Don't Believe The Truth - Page 4

I listened to it today... good stuff,

, although I wouldn't say that it's miles better than Heathen Chemistry, which I like a lot as well. "The Importance of Being Idle" is a fantastic song, very wry and Kinks-ey.

i am not sure about it! to me there is nothing that hits you straight away track 2 i think is just plain awful! track 3/4/11 are the best 3 tracks

zoology · 06-06-2005, 02:19 AM

Any chance of Passing Down the Wine or any of the other outtakes? I already have the B sides and the Japanese edition bonus tracks.

2 annoys the hell out of me lol. I can't stand it... but that's the only one I don't like much... but I listen to it anyway.

I downloaded "let there be love" and was so psyched to hear their new sound. I have missed them. I'm getting the new cd today! Ya'll have me excited about the rest of the c.d.! I can't wait!

I guess I'm just not an Oasis fan but I think the album stinks. Nowhere near the sonic marvel of coldplay's new album.

Let the fight begin...

Must everything around here be about Coldplay?

I'm a fan of both bands and I like both albums! So there!

Honestly, the more I listen to Don't Believe the Truth, the more I like!

The Importance of Being Idle

Everyone has their view on things, but for this person to say that "Mucky Fingers" is the best song from the album makes you wonder if she got past that song when listening to it.

'Don't Believe the Truth,' Oasis

Reviewed by Nancy Miller

In recent years, Noel and Liam Gallagher have become better known for their tart tongues than searing guitar licks. Maybe that's why Oasis's sixth album, "Don't Believe the Truth," lacks any real bite. Sure, for 11 songs, these blokes can grind out toe-tapping Britpop, but there are no heart-pounding anthems here. The boot-stompin' ''Mucky Fingers'' is the disc's best song: a catchy, Dylan-fronting-the-Velvet Underground jam. But it ain't no ''Wonderwall.''

I like the Pitchforkmedia review:

Oasis
Don't Believe the Truth
[Epic; 2005]
Rating: 4.7

WE DON'T LIKE OASIS.

-Joe Tangari, May 31, 2005

(Paraphrased slightly.)

Flying FuManchu · 06-07-2005, 05:25 PM

LOL at pitchfork! I think mucky fingers is the best song on the album

...

but then that's my opinion... and to me there isn't much difference from best and 2nd best and third best when comparing songs on that album.

Lila64 · 06-07-2005, 05:28 PM

I just don't get the appeal of Coldplay. I've only heard one of their older songs occasionally on the radio. Even saw them on SNL, and turned it off. I just don't get it. Nor Dave Matthews Band either, but that's just me.

Gonna insert Oasis after 'Pop' is done. I think I recall song 3

, 5, and 11 as more memorable...

Sleep Over Jack · 06-29-2005, 08:06 PM

New single details:

http://www.nme.com/news/112836.htm

OASIS have confirmed details of their new single 'THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING IDLE'.

Released on August 22, the song is the second to be lifted from their current album ’Don’t Believe The Truth’.

The single will feature two brand new tracks - Liam’s ‘Pass Me Down The Wine’ and ‘The Quiet Ones’, written by guitarist Gem Archer.

So Pass Me Down the Wine won't be restricted to a US itunes slot, and the other tune is as yet an unknown quantity..should be interesting to hear that..

I bought the album last week. I was quite underwhelmed. A few decent tracks, but amazingly mediocre overall.

Lila64 · 06-29-2005, 11:20 PM

maybe give it a few more listens

blueyedpoet · 06-30-2005, 03:58 AM

such a boring album...i mean, how can this even be the same band that put out Morning Glory?
