Time Out said this, which I thought was apt:

It'd be great if it was great, but depressingly predictable if it was depressingly predictable.

"Whats a chav ??Whats it got to do with oasis though?"

Get yourself down to the City Of Manchester stadium this summer mate and see for yourself.

Im glad they didnt though, regardless of their music the gallaghers will always entertain me, there's something technicolor about the way in which they are cunts that elevates them to greatness whenever they play live in a mood (Leeds 2000, for e.g), plus the old b-sides are mint too, and frankly, there's usually two tunes per new album that are solid enough to compete with the old stuff

what they should have done is left at least three years between morning glory and be here now, tack the best six tunes from that album, (plus stay young, same era, and the most pop thing they've done i reckon,) plus three from standing (i'll argue for bushes... go let it out and roll it over) and you have an album which stands up against morning glory.

To me Oasis at their best (Defo Def Maybe) were like the pistols crossed with the beatles fronted by george best, which I'm appreciating. Regardless of the backing, when the gallaghers are on form, theyre fantastic headliners for a festival (as i'll have usually seen the stuff Im listening too at the time earlier in the day, and seeing bona fide popstars who I like cap's it off)
