The nature of reality
Is pure subjective fantasy
Space and time and here and now
Are only in your mind

Machine of god and devil too
With no weapon just the truth
Belief does not existence make
It's only in your mind

The nature of reality
Is only in your mind

From the kitchen I wondered out loud "is this Julian Lennon?".
Bombastic turgidity. I've heard more imaginative drumming from the 14 year old kid across the road.
They had their big time, probably more than they deserved. If people buy it, well then fine, but I don't have to like it.{#No}
These guys are just cool - they rock!
Oh, come on. Sometimes you need to rock out a little.

No....it's dross
Too bad that this is probably going to be there last CD for a while. I'd lost interest prior to this CD, but they picked it up a bit with this one. Lot's of good stuff on there.
It's Spring 1972; I'm at a party in a cabin on the beach, wondering how this cool music from 36 years in the future got here.
GOOD

Sounds like George Throughgood doing the riffs .... need to speed up the tempo by an eighth.  Other than that, pretty OK.  Can't say much about the rest of the CD.  Pretty ordinary garage band,screamers and shouters mixed with a Nashville Hat Act or two.
 
The right words, Sir. But the music is not bad, i guess!

I'm still not an Oasis fan, but I like where they're heading lately.  I really like "Falling Down" and this one ain't bad neither.
Still love these guys...great album!

Yep, I'll second that. The Gallaghers might be Manc tits, but they've produced a good 'un here. Might even be worth buying. Sure it's derivative, particularly of the Beatles, but wtf - think of it as 'homage' :). 7 from the Nottingham jury.

 
Fred-
I thought you ddn't like Oasis!

I became an Oasis fan with their second album, which is terrific, but after that one they lost their creative spark. They didn't get their mojo back until the album before this one - Don't believe The Truth - but this latest album is a true return to form, it does rock.

Caught my ear...I like it

Well put.  Falling Down from this album is the best thing they've done for a long time.

 

Agreed. This isn't bad either.
What is it with Oasis. I start to enjoy their music until that twat opens his gob - can someone shove something in it!
{#Yawn}
Pukeatronic.

Yeah, the intro totally skirts HS territory - but I still like it. . .

So on this listen, while the drum skills are still lackluster to my ears, the guitar is ROCKIN' this morning. Love it.

 Gotta be sniffing something stronger than wine to get through this disaster of a song.

Oasis on RP?  This makes me sad. {#Sad}  A new low.

 

It's a Radiohead antidote.
Oasis will never be the poster children for sanity, manners, or much else involving social graces — but, at the end of the day, the drunken, in-fighting, self-serving louts can put together some decent music. And since the music is what I'm judging, the hell with the rest of it. Well done with a nice edge to it.{#Clap}

Okay I'm awake now..... Sure beats watered down office coffee. {#Dance}
Wow nice. Great guitar work!  {#Yes}  (need a head banging emote lol.)

Loud Guitars for Lunch...or Breakfast of Champions......
started well but got lost after that.

Interesting, but makes my teeth hurt a little.

Sounds good to me, my box set of the album should be arriving any time soon
