Absolutely Pathetic. This is how you de-rail a career, and yes I think other people out their could write better songs - and they're probably not being obnoxious, they're just being honest. Maybe you should listen to people who play instruments, and not rich rock stars who's day has come and gone long ago. Altogether, if you haven't heard this album, I'm being dead truthful here - your dead lucky - cause its pathetic. If I could turn back time, I would off happily have had the band call it quits after "Heathen Chemistry", the fact that it took the band so long to write and record this, and scrap so many sessions is just ridiculous and laughable. After all Oasis is about honesty, and I swear to god, their is no honesty in this music anywhere

I don't know what's worse, that this album is mediocre, or that so many people seemed to actually like it. The album's got a few not-bad songs, but mostly it's just taking the derivative thing to extremes... like, "Mucky Fingers"? That's like a high schooler's attempt to ape Lou Reed. "Turn Up the Sun" isn't much fun. "Let There Be Love" has a *great* melody but needs a trim..... I dunno. There's no song here as good as "She's Electric" or "Some Might Say". I think their first two albums are best, their 3rd is overblown but good if taken in pieces, their 4th is actually a really good album tho people seem to hate on it, and after that, they've just been intermittently good.... if I didn't like Noel Gallagher so much in general I wouldn't even bother.

True, Oasis will never top their earlier success, but how many bands do? After having an enormously successful album, only a very few bands can top it and they certainly can never live up to the hype and expectations. It was a lot different 30 years ago when there was an abundance a great talent and artistic freedom, however in todays world of mostly crappy music I applaud that their can even be a band as good as Oasis. I think this is a great effort from Oasis but it is no Definitely Maybe and never will be, and they know it to.

I think this record is far better than the first two albums, by far. The album is full of color, creativity and new poppy-ish sounds. All the songs are great, but if it were to come down to suggesting to someone, but asked what would be the highlights, it would have to be 'Let there be love', 'Importance of being idle' and 'Part of the queue'
carl gave it a1:
The entire album is really boring , the only song in the entire album that isn't terrible is the importance of being idle.
