Babylon Posted 19 April 2005 Share Posted 19 April 2005 2 albums in the top 15 for mighty Oasis :D 94773[/snapback] Am I the only one who think Oasis have had a few good singles but that the rest of their album tracks are just fillers? 95369[/snapback] No your not the only one, but there are also people out there who like every song they have ever recorded. When they recorded the first two albums their b-sides were better than most bands could ever wish to produce!! If you gave a listen to "The Materplan" which is an album of b's you'd be amazed how good it is. One of my favourite songs "Whatever" was never even released or put on an album! 95406[/snapback] The Masterplan is ok yeah... I like The Swamp Song (?) and The Acquiesce Oasis have just been the same unoriginal band all these years in my opinion. But they at least keep the quality at the same level 95408[/snapback] I have a copy of the new album and it has quite a different sound to it. There seems to be a bit of experimentation with the voices on it. Which if anything is the only critisism i have of oasis. For me the music is very different on their songs, it's the Liam "whine" that makes things seem the same as he never seems to change the variation in his voice! The songs 'mucky fingers' (sang by Noel) and 'I guess God thinks i'm abel' (liam) have quite an experiemental feel with there voices. Although i must add the Noel penned songs are complete and utter Rolling Stones rip offs!! It's not even well hidden rip offs!! 'Keep the dream alive' is a good song, spoilt a bit by Liams whine though. I think Coldplay are going to eclipse them sales wise, the new album (heard about 6 tracks) is really good. 'Talk' and 'speed of sound' are good. Although 'speed of sound' is a bit close sounding to clocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenny Posted 19 April 2005 Share Posted 19 April 2005 I think oasis are class and really enjoy each of thier albums on its own merits. Id be surprised if coldplay out sell them to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickyTrev Posted 20 April 2005 Share Posted 20 April 2005 The way these lists are compiled is laughable. There are 125 records chosen by C4 and anybody with enough tinme on their hands can pick their top 10 records and submit them on the website. It is obvious that many peoples favorite album will not be on the list and that some albums which would not get anywhere enar the top 100 are going to sneak in by default! Bloody stupid. Plus The Beach Boys- Pet Sounds in the 30's???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can safely guarantee that the Beatles would beat Radiohead in a poll anyday. Of course it will never be 100% fair. 100 years ago, they would've said Mozart maybe...but times change. You have to agree though, that making everyone vote their favourite albums is the fairest way Not that it matters because it's a ridiculous thought anyway...

TrickyTrev Posted 22 April 2005 Share Posted 22 April 2005 I think The Bealtes vote was evenly split between Revolver, Sergent. Pepp, and The White Album where as there is pretty much a concencus that OK Computer is Radiohead's outstanding album. That goes someway to explaining their high position, which I'm not suprised by. Critics have always championed it as one of the freatest albums ever and I think deservedly so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
