    Leanness and vitality have replaced the cokey bloat of their last few studio trips. [Jun 2005, p.103]

    It's confident, muscular, uncluttered, tight, and tuneful in a way Oasis haven't been since Morning Glory.

    The most immediate tunes are undoubtedly the headbobbing rockers, but it's when Oasis stretch themselves that they are at their most interesting. [#15, p.91]

    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… Full Review »

    The entire album is really boring , the only song in the entire album that isn't terrible is the importance of being idle.
