Here, here - it's about time somebdy went to bat for Oasis, yes they rip off a lot of ideas, but they always spin them into gold and that's just fine by me. I don't really care why a song is great or what the influences are, if I like it, that's all that matters. So don't believe the bullshit (pitchfork.com assholes in particular) the truth is the truth and the truth is the bomb!

Andrew Weaver there's got to be a nice little PR job wating for you somewhere in the UK. Mr. Weaver apprentice suck-ass has a nice ring to it.

I think this is the bands best record since Giants, it must be doing them some good to divvy up the writing duties, nothing like a little teamwork and compettion to bring out the goods. Don[t aplogize so much for liking Oasis man there my favorite band to - not even a close second.

I disagree with the last response in my opinion Truth is the lamest record Oasis has put out since Giants and I think the reason Noel is letting everybody else right the songs is because he's running out of other bands to rip off. It may be true that there is no longer any originality to be found, but blatant theft should not be endorsed. Oasis should have hung it up after Morning Glory. Had they, they would have gone out with some dignity and they would be a legend instead of a laughing stock.

I like laughing stocks

If a laughing stock can sellout Madison Square Garden in less than an hour, most bands should strive to be one. Maybe they should be like coldplay and just remake the same songs over and over agin.

Do you know were I can apply for this p.r job. I'm looking for a new one. There's a lot more ass kissing where that came from. I'm glad you liked "my" review

I haven't listened to the new Oasis album, nor do I intend to. How's that for honesty? The simple fact is that, having listened to their first two records enough to know better, I realize that this band has never had a good idea that wasn't pilfered from some other band's better ideas. I mean, for all of the accolades thrown at "Definitely Maybe," can you honestly think of a lamer move than ripping off the melody (and part of the lyric) for the old Coke jingle ("I'd like to teach the world to sing")? Further, am I the only bloke alive that finds Liam's Lennon-on-'roids bleating one of the most distancing, emotionally dishonest singing styles ever?

Even proponents won't claim that this album is on a level with the first two. Frankly, that's all I need to know.

What?

What is the point of that last post. Im here to read an oasis review not some idiot who trys to act like a brit by writing the word bloke. Give me a break and go listen to your bands that are all original and keep your childish remarks to pitchfork

Dear What? - Hey, mate! How's 'bout we go grab us a pint of Guinness down at the pub, then catch us a football match?

You dickhead - the best that you can do is single out one word from my comments (and a deliberate, ironic choice on my part; believe me, I have no desire to seem "British")? Assuming you don't like my opinion, try offering an alternate one, rather than haranguing me for essentially nothing.

Don't deny it, we know you want to be British. You don't need to cry about it. And to reply to the comment about others not giving it a good mark check out Spin, Q, Rolling Stone shall I go on MATE. Or should I say dickhead. And were can we read your reviews you seem to be the music guro. I'd like to see who you think is all orignal so I can talk about them on your messageboard, even if I haven't heard the CD.
