(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Nostalgin gör det helt outhärdligt men svårt att bortse från den kvalitet som faktiskt finns

Hello: Good intro cool to see where modern bands like CATB get their sound from Roll With It: feels like every scene in the Sex Pistols Hulu show where they were performing Wonderwall: Anyway here’s… Don’t Look Back In Anger: I like when songs have what people say in quotes also the line “Please don’t put your heart in the hands of a rock n roll band” Hey Now!: I like, very coming of age I feel The Swamp Song V1: instrumental innit Some Might Say: very much like the intro Cast No Shadow: instrumental is very pretty She’s Electric: Definitely my least favorite but can definitely can see myself humming along out of nowhere Morning Glory: eh The Swamp Song V2: instrumental innit pt 2 Champagne Supernova: So pretty perfect album ending Top5: 1) Champagne Supernova 2)Cast No Shadow 3) Hey Now! 4) Some Might Say 5) Don’t Look Back In Anger 7/10

My first English album on this journey. There's parenthesis in the title of the album but the title of the song is just Morning Glory, even though it could totally have the parenthesis. Also, it should be (What’s the Story), Morning Glory, no? Tracks I already knew: Wonderwall, Don’t Look Back in Anger, Champagne Supernova. Track I didn’t know but kinda dug: Hey Now! The musicality can be “simple” but I don’t mean that in a pejorative sense. This is 1995 so I don’t know if it fits in the rock revival. Thinking of the album in context I wonder if it wasn’t different enough from what was going on or distanced enough from the basic rock most of the tracks exemplify. Naturally, there are a few tracks on here that are much more complex and with higher production levels which stand out, which would have been obvious at the time.

Wonderwall and Don’t Look Back in Anger are undeniable pop rock gems. The rest is either brought down by laughably bad lyrics, or aggressively mediocre. With different lyrics I think She’s Electric could have been a nice light Beatles homage.

Good but often repetitive and you really notice that long screech of a voice from the main singer after a while

solid 90s rock. wonderwall enters the world. 3.5

I enjoyed this! Obvious hits and my favorites were "Champagne Supernova," "Don't Look Back in Anger," and "Wonderwall." Probably won't return to the deeper cuts.

A good album but I can't taste it any higher because I cannot get over my bias that the Gallagher brothers are arseholes

Ive always wondered what the draw to Oasis was back in the 90s. They wrote some decent songs, and a couple of them I like quite a bit. But a whole album’s worth of Oasis? It’s like the audio equivalent of a Full English Breakfast. I like all the ingredients, and yet I find the whole breakfast so bland. I don’t think the Brits know how to use salt or something. Anyway, that’s how I feel about this record. I ought to like everything here, but it’s just mostly bland. And I still don’t understand how they got to be as big as they were. 3/5 I’m not even sure I should rate it this highly. I feel like it’s the perfect middle of the road, the definition of mediocrity. But I also feel like it’s better than other things I’ve rated 2.5. I guess I’m giving this record a half a point extra just for “Don’t Look Back in Anger”.

not my cup of tea

Classic, but didn’t really enjoy the mix of it and got a bit bored since its so long!

Oasis continues to write big hooks, and radio-friendly Beatles-esque rock songs. This is the big one: "Wonderall", "Don't Look Back In Anger", and "Champagne Supernova" all on the same album. I've never been an Oasis fan, but this is probably the best thing they ever put out. It's undeniable that the aforementioned hits cemented Oasis as icons of the 90's. If not for the Gallagher brothers' constant fighting, they may have gotten bigger.

Better than Definitely Maybe. 115 charges.

Jangly and melodic, harder than I thought. But man, so many British albums on here!

Found out that Liam only wrote very few songs and when Noel sung live he would just leave the stage for a bit hahah what a useless twat

I was genuinely not excited for this pick but was surprised. I didn't fall in love with it, but I certainly didn't hate it. Some might say, don't look back in anger. I won't! I can even imagine this album growing on me to the point it would bump up a star.

Honestly just doesn't tickle me. Fair play to the lads, but I'd rather not have to sit through this again.

Eh... impresiones encontradas. Escucho a este disco más que cualquiera de los que me aparecieron (por ahora), pero es el efecto nostalgia. Por ahora es el peor disco, y es peor que el primer disco de Oasis. "(What's the Story) Morning Glory" nos muestra a la banca estancada, incurriendo en los mismos vicios que en el disco anterior pero con menor retorno: canciones que tal vez duren un poco más de lo que deberían y melodías fantásticas ocultas tras walls of noise tan altas que harían a Roger Waters obnubilarse "Did they had to be so high?": Parece que sí, Roger. No está todo perdido: el disco es irregular y las canciones BUENAS son mejores que las canciones de Definitely Maybe, y eso es lo que le garantiza a este disco sus tres estrellas: el single Don't Look Back in Anger (mi favorita del disco), Champagne Supernova, la infravalorada She's Electric y Roll wit It elevan al disco, mientras que los más de cinco minutos que duran Some Might Say, Morning Glory y Hey Now! lo hunden. No es solo la duración de canciones, sino las constantes citas a otras bandas como T.Rex, así como la comparación (que hago yo) con otras bandas de la época que son muy superiores a ellos, como Ocean Colour Scene. En fin, tres estrellas para Morning Glory.

𝘞𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘸𝘢𝘭𝘭, 𝘋𝘰𝘯’𝘵 𝘓𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘉𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘯 𝘈𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳, and 𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘢𝘨𝘯𝘦 𝘚𝘶𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘢 are undeniable standouts, but much of the rest blurs together, with similar arrangements and Liam’s vocals rarely shifting in tone. Blur’s 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘌𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘦 may not be perfect, yet it feels more varied and musically adventurous.

a few good tracks hidden among a minefield of monotony. liams voice is incredibly grating. the highlights struggle to shine under the weight of the bands bloated self importance.

I unapologetically think wonderwall, champagne supernova, and especially don’t look back in anger are great songs. I remember disliking the rest of the album more, but on this listen I found most of it fine. Still not a fan of their heavier distorted sound but still, a good album. Minus one more point for overt Britishness.

I'm sure this was a common problem in America and the UK at the time but there was this aspiring musician at my high school that played Wonderwall with his little acoustic guitar at every assembly or school function so I've deliberately avoided Oasis and Britpop generally as a result. That said I enjoyed this way more than I was expected, there are a lot of rip off indie bands that came after these guys in the 21st century. Somewhere around a 3.5 I believe but the door is cracked to let more Oasis into my life.

Bra album ändå, min favorit även sen tidigare är klart champagne supernova. Tror ej jag kommer lyssna på hela albumet igen dock

I think the last time I listened to this album was shortly after I graduated high school in the early 2000's. Oasis were kind of on the way out and they were doing a smaller (for them) stadium tour around Europe. They played the 15k seat or so soccer stadium in my hometown, which was a bit of an oddity because not too many bands of their stature would come directly there; they'd usually play Venice or Verona which are bigger cities with properly large venues. Anyway, they put on what I would consider to be one of the worst shows I've ever been to. There was no opener, they played album recordings of their own songs before coming on stage, they didn't say a single thing in between songs, and fucked off 30 seconds after they finished their set, no encore, nothing. I was really disappointed, and not because I even liked Oasis that much, but because I expected something more from what was a huge band just a few years back. I don't remember if this was when the two brothers hated each other the most or not, but I don't really care. That whole experience sums up this album. Sure, the big singles are familiar and I would even consider some of them to be good (Don't Look Back In Anger, Morning Glory), but the rest of it is pretty dull. I don't remember what was supposed to be so good about this. Considering some of the other Brit Rock bands that were around pumping out great material at the time (Supergrass, Blur, etc) this is really sub par. It's saved from total mediocrity by a few of the singles.

I don't go deep with Oasis, but the hits are good. Solid 3/5, above average album.

In 1995? 4.5. In 2025, a solid 3.5.

Cheap pop. Never understood the hype. Good voice and instrumentation.

Nothing special, my score would be higher or lower if I had nostalgia or minded the praise. Wonderwall is a stylistic outlier in this album.

I've heard most of the songs on this album, I just didn't realize they all came from one album. I neither love nor hate Oasis, they're just another Britpop band with marginally better songs than most in the genre.

I SAID MAYBEEEEEEE

3/5

Lots of Oasis classics but honestly it’s not my favorite kind of rock so i skipped 3/4 through. still nice to hear where the classics are from tho

No me lo he escuchado entero pero HAY QUE DECIR que hasta el momento de los álbumes que me han salido de rock ha sido el mejor

This strikes me as high school and college stadium rock. I see the appeal, but don’t need to pursue further.

It was fine. Played in the background while I did other stuff and it wasn't bad. I really like "Don't Look Back in Anger".

There are a couple of bangers on here, but also a whole lot of 90s drone.

I want falafel

When I say this album is overplayed and overrated, I don't mean that it's bad. I don't even mean to say I didn't enjoy it. It was incredibly influential and popular in the late 90s / early 2000s. It's just that this edge-less, squeaky clean sound doesn't do it for me. Says a lot when Radiohead are edgier than you.

They’re not all winners, but it’s a classic.

Same thing as other ‘greatest’ albums here. Two three songs are so strong but the rest is average.

Champagne Supernova is a good song (by far my favourite on the album), yet overall I'm...meh. Maybe Oasis was overplayed on the radio. Or maybe I really do prefer Blur.

Wonderballs.

not particularly compelling to me! but not an active dislike

Okay but what is a wonderwall

Propaganda en la que no voy a caer. Igual gratamente sorprendido que sean más heavy de lo que aparentaban. Not: 2.8

At the time, it was said that these were the new Beatles. They're certainly good, but as good as the Beatles...

Some songs are good, others not. It is a decent album, but not anything I would highlight.

wankers (wish i could give half stars)

"Slowly walking down the hall, faster than a cannonball" Listened to B4: Yes (30 years ago) Tracks Already Saved on Spotify: 4 - Champagne Supernova, Don't Look Back in Anger, Morning Glory, Wonderwall Standout Tracks : Champagne Supernova, Don't Look Back in Anger, Morning Glory, Wonderwall (71/100)

There are some songs that don't really land for me, but those that do hit hard. Very British. Very 90s.

Oasis. Verken mer eller mindre

There's like 2 good songs on this album and the rest sound very derivative of each other

it’s okay but i just don’t like oasis that much

Solid pop with some great songs. It was hard to get through the 90s without hearing a ton of this. Not my thing exactly but I see why they were successful and this absolutely belongs on this list

Wonderwall is a killer song that has unfortunately been overplayed and memeified. The whole album is okay, but the only songs that stuck out to me also happen to be the most viewed: Don't Look Back in Anger and Champagne Supernova. The rest fades into the background as their unique style seems less prominent.

I think this album is VERY close to the line between good (even great) albums I really enjoyed, and albums people need to listen to before they die. I listened to this album a lot back in the day (especially my 4 months in Washington) but never really understood the fascination with these guys. So it presents a rating dilemma - I would probably give this album a 4/5 if I were just rating how much I liked it. But it doesn't seem like I should give an album a 4 in this thing if I don't consider it an album people need to listen to before they die. So I'll probably give it a 3 and that's the reason. That, and these guys being unsufferable douches.

Sensitive Britpop with big catchy hooks. Straightforward, accessible, and easy to digest through decent, well-arranged songs that dont reinvent the wheel. Some are able to dig up emotionality with Both a bit of sadness and hope to it. It also sounds a bit timeless - of course I know it’s 90s Britpop, but it could have fit in with other times and scenes or calls back to them enough. But overall, it’s whatever and I just don’t find it highly interesting…all together it’s just a fine album. The strongest points are the edgier or slightly more psych-influenced tracks, but there’s not much of it. Overall, There’s little enough variation to prevent me coming back. An album where the lyrics hit you, and if they don’t there’s not much left to pull you in. I guess you had to be there.

Oh Wonderwall the song of choice for tools that had a guitar in the 90's. Seriously I was at a house party and some dude had a guitar and I swear he only knew Wonderwall and one other song. If you've ever seen Animal House you know what we were all thinking... So the album isn't bad overall. There are some songs that are pretty good even if they have some lyrics that are weak. One of the songs started off really rocking....then went to incessant whining. I was really hoping to be surprised and they just go full on rockstar, sadly that didn't happen. The only song I really enjoyed was Don't Look Back in Anger. It's a great song even if he sounds kinda whiny while doing it. Overall I do not understand the love they get, kinda mid to me, although at one point one of the brothers announced they were bigger than the Beatles and it pissed off so many people. Seriously it was hilarious, they get an extra star for that.

It was fine. Not a standout, but enjoyable

Wonderwall Dont look back in anger Overall good, and much closer to my tastes than yesterday's album but most of the tracks felt forgettable to me.

A classic of classic rock revival. Hasn’t aged super well as my taste has broadened, but some of the tracks are undeniable.

As living my teenage years in the 90's, many of these songs were really everywhere and maybe because of that overfeed I got really bored of the hit singles. Listening now again after a few decades I must admit that many of the songs are really great. Nothing to get suprised about and Oasis isn't the most innovative band in the world, but they really can make great songs. Of course Wonderwall and other hit singles are great, but I have forgotten other songs such as Cast no shadows and She's electric which are great too. It might even be that some of these songs will go to some of my playlists.

Skapligt, men det är de man hört innan som är bäst

One of their best.

pa nije ovo loše. bilo bi bolje bez vandervola

honestly, i have never liked this band. they come across as annoying, pretentious twats. the singing is whiny and nasally. having said that, i found the songs that i wasn’t previously familiar with (the deep cuts, if you will) were better than the singles.

It's well-reported Oasis have a love affair with the Beatles, but I could never hear it. Over their brief life, the Beatles reinvented themselves constantly, and pushed boundaries where they could...and could get away with it. To that end, I always thought Blur were more Beatles than this Burnage lot. That said, this came out during a troublesome time of my life, and 30 years later it's still hard for me to listen to this album. You want the best Oasis album? The closest is The Masterplan, with all the b-sides on it...usually much better listening than their a-sides.

Don’t Look Back in Anger is 10/10. Rest of the album is not very memorable, Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova notwithstanding.

not my dad's britpop band of choice but it's honestly fine

First time listen and it was okay. I was expecting more, but must have been overhyped. Still a pretty solid album.

Easy listening, but nothing groundbreaking here. Some good poppy riffs but a pretty generic sound overall. I think this gets reviewed highly due to the nostalgia it provides people who grew up with it.

Ein paar Kracher, ein Haufen mittelmäßiger Songs. 3-4

the hits are good, but the rest is meh

The songs from this I really liked back in the day - Don't Look Back, Supernova - still holds up, the rest doesn't do much for me and sounds closer to Be Here Now than Def Maybe.

Rock, 1995 -> 3

Really struggled with picking a rating for this one. I was fighting the urge to sing a long at my desk, but when the album ended I had absolutely no desire to relisten. I don’t know if it’s just that I don’t want to like it. I can’t deny how enjoyable it is to listen to the big hits on this album but some of it just felt too noisy for me. I preferred the songs that were a bit more melodic. There are definitely some good catchy songs, but as an album it fell a bit flat for me. I think even with the songs I want to sing along to, I’m only really interested if they’re on somewhere I can sing along with other people. Maybe that’s just because they’ve been overplayed, maybe it’s just the association I have with it. I’m not sure. Giving it a 3 because I don’t think I’ll listen again. Fav song: Don’t Look Back In Anger Least fav: Roll With It

Mostly overrated but I enjoy Don’t Look Back In Anger and Morning Glory

Today is gonna be the day that I give you a 3

Damn I really got Wonderwall rickrolled at the start of the opening track Edit Apr 15 2026: 4 --> 3

-1 for wonderwall

It was a good album overall, i knew two songs and i alr liked them but this album was TOO loud and too rocky…i don’t know. maybe it’s the point of my life where i’m now but i didn’t enjoy it that much, it was kinda overwhelming. my favourite song was Champagne Supernova

Everyone has dated or met an Oasis fan who clearly expresses a specific personality. The songs reflect this. There are good songs, some are quite tiring, as if I were a drunk at the end of a party. Others are very lively, and make you want to listen to them again. The album has some interludes in between. There are so many songs, at some point it gets boring. It is certainly a nostalgic album of something that was cool a few decades ago.

Insanely overrated, but there are a few good tunes on it.

No me encanta oasis pero ponerle menos puntaje sería de termo

Three stars for the good songs (She's Electric, Don't Look Back In Anger, Champagne Supernova are all great). A lot of the rest is unremarkable "lad" stuff and so musically basic it's difficult to love.

It maybe a great album. I almost wish I had not heard the tracks so much when I was young. His voice annoys me now unfortunately.

Favorite song: Wonderwall. Overall score: 6.7/10

Gear: Aür Audio Aurora Artwork: 🚶🏻‍➡️🏙️🚶🏻‍♂️ Production (Deluxe Remastered Edition 2014): 🤔😐👍 Music: 🌄🏟️⁉️ Rating: 🧱🧱🧱(🧱)/5

I will never understand how so many people consider Oasis to be one of the greatest bands. An hour of this monotonous droning is a bit much.

It’s all pretty good but underwhelming (yes including Wonderall). It does end on the highest of notes though.

Yeah, it's a good listen. But maybe I've heard the songs too many times?

After they exploded into our lives with their first LP I’d high hopes for Oasis. I loved Liam’s fuck you attitude and rasp. There are high spots - Champagne Supernova, Cast No Shadow, What’s The Story - and Hello will be a banging intro to their gigs this summer - but I can’t help being disappointed when I listen afresh to how plodding much of it is. Status Quo anyone…

Decent listen, was pretty good rock music, would be in my top 100 most likely.

Didn’t grab me like Boxer

I’ve had 34 albums generated so how am I already getting the second Oasis album out of the 1089 albums on this list? That being said, I am liking this one a lot more than the last one and a lot more than the other britpop albums I’ve received. I feel like they’ve really improved their songwriting and instrumentation since Definitely Maybe. Or maybe it’s just the nostalgia factor of having listened to this album in high school? Favourite tracks: Cast No Shadow, Morning Glory

Solid album, not much else to say tbh

I mean, so anyways, here’s wonderwall. Solid album

Hits. Other songs eh

I can really feel the ‘90s vibe. Even though I always preferred Blur over Oasis, this album rocks. I had never listened to What’s the Story Morning Glory? in full before—but come on, “Roll with It” absolutely rocks. Sure, “Wonderwall” was a massive hit back in the day, but it feels a bit boring now. (How many times have I heard it? Around 200?) The beginning of “Don’t Look Back in Anger” is a clear nod to Imagine, but it’s still an anthem I appreciate—though it’s not really mine. Overall, it’s much more rock’n’roll than I expected, but still… it’s pop’n’roll at heart. (Sorry, Liam.)

I don’t have much to say about the album or oasis in general. Probably wouldn’t listen again. Anyway, here’s wonderwall…

Anthemic Beatleesque Britpop that it’s hard to truly dislike, but it’s too simple and derivative to truly be great. Blur kicks their ass.

Ah Oasis, I hate the Gallaghers but you can't deny the importance of some of the songs on this album. I did enjoy it, but other than the usual songs, this isn't an album I'd go back to regularly. 3/5 Anyway, here's Wonderwall.

Wery wonderwallian album

Growing up in the same area as the Gallaghers means having already heard Wonderwall way too many times. Never been big on Oasis, it's a fine album but I never feel the want to listen to it.

Fine

Not bad - the music and vocals are quite tolerable, but nothing truly exciting or a reason to come back.

when its the 90’s and you want ELO but without the precision or attention to craft. the Gallaghers themselves freely admit that their lyrics don’t actually mean anything, and i feel like the songs suffer for it sometimes. every line doesn’t need to be some profound poetry necessarily, but shit like “slowly walking down the hall, faster than a cannonball,” makes me feel like they think we’re all stupid. and given the outsized loudmouth personalities of these two donuts, they probably do. even so, a lot of the guitar texture is pretty cool, and Liam’s got a good voice. it moves along at a pretty steady clip most of the time, the ideas get too stale or overstay their welcome despite some of the songs being fairly long for a pop-rock album.

Reviews 9 and 10 of the Easter blitz, Oasis. I insist on listening to these two records side by side. Not because I’ve ever done that before, or because I have particularly strong feelings about Oasis’ imperial phase in the mid 90s. I haven’t, to my present recollection, ever actually chosen to listen to Oasis; in fact has anyone? Hyperbole, sure, but I wouldn’t be all that surprised if Oasis was a site-specific phenomenon that a person chooses to maximise their exposure to through numerous and studied life choices (pubs, football, football pubs, pub football etc.) rather than, say, a band someone buys the CD of. When Oasis reformed recently I didn’t really care. I was born 10 years too late for the full impact – their songs don’t function as a time capsule for me in that way (though their ubiquity as a cultural force means they appear in more than a couple of core memories; one of the worst hangovers I’ve ever suffered quickly springs to mind). The frenzy for tickets seemed quaint, the dynamic pricing totally cynical, the promise of a night transported to the Britpop 90s about as attractive as a night in a cheap tourist trap in Magaluf. But then the months rolled over, the buzz built to breaking point, the gigs loomed, and finally the Oasis vibes were declared to be in the area. And in that moment – awash with declarations from England’s comedy commentariat that this was the defining moment in their own cultural lives – I’d challenge anyone with a pulse and ears to rather be anywhere else than at those first arena gigs. It’s Oasis, they’ve got bangers, come on. Bangers like the immortal might of “Live Forever” – a song which, and I challenge you to better this review – is just really fucking great. Or the immediately hooky “Supersonic”; the blithely pensive “Wonderwall”; the truly, properly anthemic “Don’t Look Back in Anger” and “Champagne Supernova”; the thrilling cycling up the gears of “Some Might Say”; or the purest instantiations of swag ever committed to record, “Cigarettes and Alcohol” and “Roll With It”. Songs that will, rightly, exist forever in the cultural fabric (a cultural fabric that may or may not carry a Stone Island badge between the elbow and shoulder). Then there’s the tier two stuff, stuff that may actually have been the most influential: the melancholic “Slide Away” that sounds like a million subsequent indie bands (and especially mid-career, Marr-inclusive Cribs); or “Up in the Sky” that would slot into the track list of any number of mega selling indie records of the past 30 years, and most recently Fontaines D.C’s Romance. There’s some pretty shit stuff (“Cast No Shadow”, in particular; dreadful) too – but it’s never enough to even partially eclipse the good. And when they’re good, the truth is that there’s very few bands who can compete. It’s why Oasis can mean a great many things to an even greater number of people, and why no matter where you stand on that continuum that run tedious bores to total geniuses … you are standing on it. You can’t fail to have an opinion on them. And in some ways, that feels like the biggest artistic triumph imaginable.

TODAYYY IS GONNA BE THE DAY THAT IM GONNA POST MY REVIEWWWWWW Its ok... I of course liked "Wonderwall" and also "Don't Look Back in Anger." "Champagne Suepernova" was also refreshing at the end, I would have liked to hear a project with more variety like that.

Perfectly reasonable radio friendly album. No filler. Also nothing special here. On tothe next one.

Hard to deny there are many good tunes here, sadly they were recorded by the most annoying sounding man on Earth.

I don’t know, I just don’t get the overwhelming universal love for these guys. A few of their songs stand out and one or two may even reach classic status, but I think there’s a lot of filler too. A mid-tier band/album for me.

This album is not bad, but it's not really good either. There were a couple of tracks that had my attention, but most of it was unemotional, generic Brit-Pop, which was mostly forgettable. Sounds like music that you find in soundtracks of Rom-Com movies.

Good in spades, but I got bored of it halfway through. Morning Glory, the song, is great though. That never gets old even if other songs on here don’t leave as strong of an impression on me.

If Gallagher didn't sing I'd be happier

should we throw a party? should we invite bella hadid?

milquetoast

The hits on this album do a very good job of encompasing the music of my youth (90s Alternative) and I've heard them lots but not the album, read enough that people think this album is amazing. The hits are as great as they've ever been, the rest of the album left me on the brink of believing those other statements but never quite finding the magic. It may grow to 4 stars after a relisten or two.

trotz Wonderwall, ist halt Oasis und weiterhin nicht so mein Fall

Never been a huge fan, good but not terrific. Still Noel is a talented songwriter and Liam has stage charisma, but the band lacks something to consider them as top tier act. This album has the song that puts everyone trying to play guitar and Noel's singalong anthem...1,2 and soooo....the rest are just ok songs.

Well, it does get the "Proust's madeleine" job strolling me along (nice) memory lane when I lived in London during "Cool Britania" Tony Blair' s time. But this album didn't age gracefully and only the hit Wonderwall still rings nice to the ears. I give it a 3 rather than a 2 only for history. Today I am sure I'd vote Tony BLUR!

I don't know. The songs sound alright, but I just can not get over the singer's voice. It's sooooo nasally.

Oki

A few good songs, the rest were fairly forgettable.

Cannot believe this is 30 years old ... and they are still out there. I guess an OK album, but no wonder there are not may hits from this ... Oh yeah... I haven't heard "Wonderwall" enough in my life!

Oasis so could be better. Surprisingly decent. Ruined by Liam Gallagher, all but one of the good Oasis songs on here

Hello, Don't Look Back in Anger and Morning Glory are all bangers. I even like She's Electric and Some Might Say. But Oasis are mid. The rest of this album is mid. Wonderwall sucks. I'm English so I get to say all this as an authority. 3 stars.

Was honestly surprised track 3 wasn't my favorite as I listened to the other albums. At some point the album started to blend together so I had to lock in to finish, but overall good album. I'd probably have it in the background for easy listening, anyway here's wonderwall

Classic stadium rock, doesn’t blow me but I can totally hear how crazy something like morning glory would be live

I've never really liked Oasis. 3 stars for good pop-rock.

Hello 3.3 Roll with It 3.2 Wonderwall 3.4 Don't Look Back in Anger 4 Hey Now! 3.7 Untitled (also know as "The Swamp Song - Excerpt 1") 3 Some Might Say 3.4 Cast No Shadow 3.3 She's Electric 3.6 Morning Glory 3.5 Untitled (also known as "The Swamp Song - Excerpt 2") 3 Champagne Supernova 3.7 Score: 3.425

I don't know about this. Obviously, I remember when this album hit and the singles hit you with a sense of nostalgia, some of these songs are absolute bangers if not cheesy for sure. Oasis is maybe the easiest band to goof on, those Gallagher brothers are corny as hell and take themselves so seriously to the point of parody. I wasn't stoked to listen to this, but it was fine, but Oasis is not for me.

Ah, the resurrection of the Beatles. They've been photographed more than Jesus Christ! The hit songs are catchy, but I was never really a fan. She's Electric was a deep cut that I liked. Overall, I'm not a fan of the vocals. He sounds like an annoying British guy yelling at me. Plus, their attitudes are bloody shite. 3.

Pretty decent overall. A lot of the singles are super familiar, of course, but I’ve never really felt emotionally connected to them. That said, the melodies are fairly strong. Vocals were a little whiny or bored-sounding at times (maybe just peak Brit attitude lol). I’d probably land somewhere around 3.5

I would not call this your typical pop rock album because, unlike most pop rock bands, Oasis are at least trying to make something good here. Are they succeeding? Well, yeah? Sort of? This feels like a lesser version of The Smashing Pumpkins' best records: Noisy alt-rock mixed together with quieter, more personal acoustic songs, but with worse riffs, solos, and writing; less eclectic and energetic. This is the kind of album that makes me wish I used the out-of-100 rating system instead. In 95% of the cases, I infinitely prefer the out-of-10 scale because it's the most accurate system I can use without my decision paralysis murdering me. But the gap between scores in it is not narrow enough to describe "this is, like, 10% better than that other album I'd heard." And Morning Glory is about 10% better than an average pop rock album. It's not the most groundbreaking stuff the genre has to offer, but considering the fact that a lot of pop rock is scientifically crafted to be the most mid music humanity could feasibly come up with at that point in history, this is an improvement. A marginal one, but still. It feels like they had some good things going for them—some solid riffs, some catchy choruses—but then a producer came in and said, "What if this 42-year-old Christian stay-at-home mother of two from Birmingham finds this too loud? We can't have that!" and they had to dial it down a little. And this is essentially what holds most of pop back—the fact that the artists are forced to sacrifice creativity in favor of mass appeal because that's what the shareholders want. I can almost assuredly tell you that they’d wanted to go full shoegaze-mode at a couple of points, but the invisible yet powerful hand of Capital said that that way, Wonderwall wouldn’t become every acoustic guitar player’s sleep paralysis demon, so we got what we got. Still, Morning Glory is definitely not the most soulless corporate music I've heard. I think they had good ideas but failed to realize them to their full potential. This is definitely not a bad album, but it feels like it had a solid foundation that went somewhat underutilized. Like I've said before, it's 10% better than an average pop rock album. And since an average pop rock album, in my experience, is around a 6, let's round it up and say this is a 7. But it's a pretty weak 7. 7/10

This is class

today

Never a favourite of mine even if it has a couple of belting tracks on it. Definitely Maybe is still superior

Pretty good

I make no secret of my distaste for Oasis, but it is largely a distaste for the band itself and I am once again forced to admit this is a good album. It deserves four stars but I'm deducting a star because they're just bloody irritating.

yet another victim of 'album on the list because of one famous song.' wonderwall isn't even that good

a classic for a reason and it’s fun to notice how their sound has influenced other bands I love. I can see how it might not be for everyone but you’re guaranteed to find at least two songs that you’d enjoy listening to on this album. I wouldn’t say it has no skips as some songs stand out a lot more than others but it’s overall a well made album

Feb 24 2025 (Mon) | Day 1 - Bit samey - Know most tunes - Balamory ?? - Fav song: Champagne Supernova #1990s #1995 #spotify #'25 #feb '25 [3.5*]

Listened to the deluxe remastered edition. I remember a lot of the big singles. Still hold up really well. Some of the other tracks are just kinda mediocre. Found myself liking more of the b sides and demos and live stuff. Showed a bit more levity and experimentation that the original album didn’t let shine because it was so focused on one kind of sound.

Oasis... Not my favorite pop rock band, but I know they've got a couple of solid hits. Roll With It was ok, but not memorable. Understandable why it didn't get radio play. Wonderwall. The most OVERPLAYED song on the album. So whiny. Don't Look Back in Anger. Good song. Cast No Shadow is pretty good, should have gotten more attention. Lyrics are interesting, tune is catchy. Morning Glory was pretty good as well. Champagne Supernova, the first tune I actually heard from Oasis. I remember seeing the music video on MTV, back when they actually played music. Decent enough song. All in all, good album. Oasis never caught me as a band that I wanted to give a relisten, but they weren't a band I couldn't stand listening to again. My Rating: 3/5

less whiny than usual

Three undeniably great songs. Two or three good songs. The rest is mostly decent filler. I was 14 when this was released. I didn't really get it then. I maybe get it a little more now. I still think this might be one of the most overrated albums (and bands, especially by the band members themselves) of all time. People are seriously comparing this to the Beatles? I mean, come on!

Already listened to it many times. Iconic and classic.

Struggling to have an opinion

Oasis were the apotheosis of 90’s lad culture, swaggering and boorish and utterly convinced of their own greatness. They’d obviously grown up listening to Revolver on repeat and did a pretty good job of channelling some of the energy and attitude of that era, if not the musical or lyrical ability. One of the major problems I have listening back is the way that the sound is so compressed to seem louder. I can imagine them in the studio asking the technicians to turn everything up to 11. Blur were better.

It's a decent album, but the sound is honestly not good (there's no room for breathing, I really dislike this kind of claustrophobic production), the music is OK but far too hyped, the brothers are assholes -- who think they are revolutionized music whereas they just found a way of pleasing a large audience without reinventing anything (doesn't mean the music is not good, but give a break, it's not mindblowing), and only Corgan sings worst than Liam. Blur was better!

Classic, very nostalgic.

I would have given this a 5 but unfortunately today I have a policy of ‘Dynamic Rating’, so it’s just going to be a 3. And if anyone asks me about it, I’ll say I didn’t know it was happening, even though that would make me - in the words of Robert Smith - ‘fucking stupid or a liar’.

A britpop classic. Heavy on guitars and noisy. Opening song was middling. Roll with It had a Beatles influence.And no matter how much the internet hates Wonderwall, it's still a great song. And Don't Look Back in Anger is greater. And Hey Now was beautiful too. The interludes felt unnecessary. Morning Glory had a sing-along anthemic vibe. But the real star of the album is the gorgeous ballad Champagne Supernova. Great vocals by Liam. Such a bittersweet way to end an album. Still, since I don't find Britpop interesting, I'll give it a 3.

Too long cut some fat off. Too many repeated choruses

honestly i enjoyed this more than i thought i would. i definitely liked don't look back in anger, also (oops) wonderwall, morning glory, and champagne supernova. however, i guess it wasn't the most adventurous album and some of the tracks sounded a bit too similar so it gets a bit tired at times?

Decent vibes, britpop rock album, but nth special wonderwall is kinda underwhelming Dont look back in anger is a great classic. I also like hey now!

Mid

Seeing that this is the album that contains Wonderwall, I immediately expected another dud today, but I was pleasantly suprised! I guess I had never heard any other Oasis song besides Wonderwall. Even though the general theme is largely the same, mellow singing about love and stuff, I was suprised by the dynamic range of these songs, and some of them had pretty interesting melodies. Still not my cup of tea, but I wouldn't mind it in the background. ...except for Wonderwall though. I hate that song.

iwnejwndkwlwkwksm i don’t have the time to truly listen and enjoy this album because i’m not home home right now. my dad loves oasis, of course i grew up with this band, this album in particular. my thoughts? i guess you really need to be in the mood to be able to enjoy this i guess. i’d be pissed off if this was playing in the car if i was in a bad mood. overall, it’s good, but is it THAT good? totally subjective. to me, it’s just okay

Good album poorly recorded. Great songs

At least one of the tracks on this album was a radio hit when it was released, and maybe more. I viewed Oasis as a good band which made a big splash because of their lifestyle and clever marketing. Overall a good album but nothing that stands out to me. Three stars.

Like the Beatles, Oasis is currently having a major cultural renaissance in my peer group, so this is well-timed for me. Seeing 'Gary Glitter' as a writer for the first song was (yet another) 1001 albums "oh no" moment, but fear not, it was only the one song. I like the album cover. The songs themselves are fine, but I think Blur won the Britpop battle of my heart. Liam does sound remarkably John Lennon-y though, which is fun. Noel sounds more 90s to me. This has been my Oasanalysis. Highlights: 'Wonderwall', 'Don't Look Back in Anger', 'Champagne Supernova' (duh), 'Morning Glory' (they say the album name !)

I liked the instrumentals to this album, though the vocals were hit or miss. Wouldn't listen to it again on my own, but not too bad. Rating: ✦✦✦✧✧ Playlist Additions: Champagne Supernova - Shower Playlist Don't Look Back In Anger & Some Might Say - Experimental Playlist

It's fine, not that special

You can say they're lame all you want but you can't deny that this is catchy as hell. Wonderwall, Don't Look Back in Anger, and Champagne Supernova are all such clear radio hits. It's a bit muted sounding at times but there's some talent and creativity here. Not my favourite. Makes sense to be on the list. I hope we don't get a ton of Oasis.

This production is very much lacking a dynamic sound. Wonderwall. I kind of like Don't Look Back in Anger, but still over compressed. I think I've always liked the title track, tho a little long. I'm not sure where I heard most of this album but I remember listening to Champagne Super Nova in the back of a 1970s van on a road trip to Quebec. I liked the vibe of the song. This stuff went on to become a bit of a joke and there are quite a few duds on here, but I get why it was big at the time.

4/1089 The start of the loudness wars. It's adequate. It was refreshing when Noel sang one of the songs instead of Liam.

I recognize the importance of this record, but I find the songs annoying.

Just not overwhelmed by these guys. The album‘s too long and the songs all start to sound the same.

Not my fav oasis album but definitely a staple sound of my childhood. Brings me back to car rides with my dad playing some might say off his iPod classic (with the touch wheel). She's Electric, Roll With It, Some Might Say, Morning Glory are my favorite tracks in no particular order.

To jest bardzo dobry album, ale nie w moim stylu. Indie rock mnie nuży, ma dla mnie płaskie brzmienie, dźwięki zlewające się w jedno nieprzerwane buczenie. Praktycznie wszystkie utwory są chwytliwe i jestem w stanie zrozumieć fenomen tego zespołu. "Wonderwall" to imo bardzo dobry utwór, szkoda, że został tak doszczętnie zmemiony. "Don't Look Back in Anger", "Morning Glory", "Some Might Say" jakoś najbardziej zapadły mi w pamięć i to są imo świetne stand alone kawałki. Ale nie sądzę, bym miał jeszcze kiedyś ochotę na godzinę tego ciurkiem. Jak ktoś puści, to posłucham. 3,5/5, były momenty, kiedy rozważałem czwórkę, ale to by nie było szczere.

Still don't really understand all the hoop and holler over this band. They're okay, I guess.

No matter how many Wonderwall memes I hear, and despite this not being an album I revisit often, I do have a soft place in my heart for the nostalgia it evokes and consider it timeless. Don’t Look Back in Anger will always provide that nostalgic ache that I can’t describe, and She’s Electric will always make me want to dance.

this album is fine

Definitely, Maybe it's sacrilegious to say (What's the Story) Morning Glory is an easier pill to swallow for a non-fan, but I think it is. It'll never be one of my desert island albums but it's a more approachable oasis.

Reminds me of my childhood and my friend making a mixtape with Oasis on it.

I prefer the disc 2, but i am however not a fan of this album (or Oasis in general?). The singer’s vocals irritate me a little bit and the melody is imo all over the place, as are some lyrics that feel really forced and thoughtless. I liked some of the songs but not many

I wasn't super excited for this to be the first album and I wasn't paying a ton of attention, but there are a lot more songs on this album that I recognized than I realized. Forgot how much I like Don't Look Back in Anger.

Wonderwall album. Fine listen. Inoffensive rock.

I honestly think I just don’t care about britpop. The entire time listening to Champagne Supernova I could only think of Red Wine Supernova and the references Chappel Roan made to this song. This is my second Oasis album in the 13 albums I’ve rated and both times I just kinda went “eh” both times.

Really hit me on Album 100 with "anyway here's Wonderwall" lol. Its a fine album, good even. It is dwarfed and failed by its own hype though. Imagine someone telling you this was the next Beatles.

I SAID MAYBE

Yawn 🥱

The singles ("Wonderwall" and "Don't Look Back in Anger") are great. The other songs varied between enjoyable and too loud. I think with a few more listens it could be a 4.

Oasis — what’s the story morning glory It’s decent. Very catchy lyrics and great guitar riffs. Wonderwall is just unreal. Timeless song. Good thing there’s more carrying this album than just that one song though. Don’t Look Back in Anger is solid too. It has a lot of heart of sleeve feelings. And kinda of reminds me of grunge but set in the UK. Same with Hey Now. Overall this album sets a great tone for a busy day walking around London. Has some elements of trip hop in Wonderwall. Some Might Say is very retail store l music. Which I guess back then wouldn’t really be played at Target but I can see it now. I think what they capture really well is just a positive, happy day, “it’ll get better” type of mentality. It’s uplifting 3/5 Nothing crazy but not awful Favorite songs: Wonderwall Don’t Look Back in Anger Cast No Shadow

It's pleasant but I never fully bought into Brit Pop. It's good but it doesn't make my heart move one way or another.

Pretty good. Several very familiar songs.

i gotta give em credit, starting with a wonderwall fakeout is very funny

Was still a fan of these at this point, and really liked this record, moreso than the debut. Roll With It was always shit though, Oasis at their most obviously Status Quo. Wonderwall, Champagne Supernova and Cast No Shadow still stand up however, ridiculously bad lyrics aside. To be fair I do forget this is actually good, given the absolute torrent of tripe that came after and for the next 30 years in various projects. The signs were there though, there's some shite here. Hey Now contains about 30 seconds worth listening to, Noel clearly riffed the rest and thought that'll do. And he was proved right, there's a lot of people out there who'll swallow that kind of effortless shit. I understand people like She's Electric, I'm not one of those people, and I also think it's badly sequenced and takes the shine off the better, more melancholy side B by being plonked in between two downbeat songs. I went to see them at Maine Road, with my love just starting to wane. I had a great day out and the Manics in support (the Manics and the Mancs - arf!) were extremely good, after that though, I was out, on to pastures new and far more interesting, and left Oasis in the dust. I hadn't noticed the One I Love riff nicked wholesale in the title track before. Haha, what a shameless magpie Noel is.

Fine. 90s rock. This would probably be more meaningful to me if I'd been in high school or college in the 90s.

rachel chinouriri is better

At the very least, if nothing else positive can be said about perhaps the peak of obnoxiousness in musical and human form, this album of theirs was actually pretty good.

Not sure why I haven’t been listening to Oasis constantly for the past several years but we move

Not bad, every song sounded the same. Okay for background music for work or driving.

Not entirely my thing, but I can see the appeal - and clearly deserves its place on this list

Some big hits

Recognizable 90’s rock album

I can completely hear how this is a solid album that captured its moment perfectly. Oasis took Brit pop and mixed in a little grunge, turned down the synths, added a hint of pub rock, and recorded a totally solid album that connected with millions of people. But I’m not one of them and I’m not totally sure why. I don’t dislike them at all and honestly think I should like them more, but for some reason they just don’t connect with me. Anyway, here’s Wonderwall (I hope I’m the first to make that reference 🤞🏻).

A few real bangers on this album! Not a whole albums worth.

I've always enjoyed this album. Some of the best oasis songs that have a permanent place in my head.

Nope. It's annoying.

A couple of the best songs ever recorded, surrounded by a lot of 'pretty good' 90's rock.

It was fine, didn't really move me in any way.

Saved Prior: Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger Off Rip: She's Electric Cutting Edge: None Overall Notes: Still don't really like Oasis outside of their anthems, but this album has their two best and the rest is mostly tolerable (ie doesn't make my eardrums feels like they're being ground to dust like Definitely Maybe). If I hadn't already given Definitely Maybe a 2 this would get a 2, but I'll round the 2.5 up so that they don't get the same grade. Whatever man.

这个乐队有名到我知道。这专不是特别喜欢。

I was never a huge fan of Oasis, I was a Blur girl, and even then only The Great Escape. There are a couple of gems (Champagne Supernova) but am I only hearing it through rose tinted glasses? Who knows.

It’s a good album and functions as a kind of best of album for Oasis.

I definitely enjoy this album. I even bought it on CD when it was released. I just never thought their music was that transcendent. It’s good pop with a bit of a rock edge. Not mind blowing nor trailblazing. I wonder if the brothers had never feuded if they would be as big as they are now. Champagne Super Nova is my favorite track and favorite overall song from Oasis. Quite honestly, I cannot think of an Oasis song that is not on this album.

I loved this when it came out. It doesn't hold up as well to me now, but that's a bit to be expected. It is interesting how a lot of these songs could be retooled to be a modern doom song. Long and short, I liked this but every time I revisit them I remember how forgettable a lot of their music is.

Wish I would have listened to this when I was 18, it would have been right up my alley. Not hitting the same now that I’m old.

Never really landed with me, was always more of a Blur guy in the very-ginned-up fake competition between the two. Never got their own comparisons to The Beatles, to me it's so apparent this is above average 90s rock revival, not like some groundbreaking sea change like The Beatles.

I don't get how people compare Oasis to the Beatles -- aside from their momentary flash of fame. To me, they're more like the final form of the Stone Roses or Soup Dragons. I'd heard the hits from this since they were just inescapable -- but it's a pretty good rock & roll record. Revelatory? No. But pretty damned decent. Unexpected bangers: Morning Glory, Roll With It

Wonderwall überstrahlt den Rest des Albums. Mir sind die anderen Songs zu intensiv, aber so war das halt in den 90er

Pretty good

3.5

Definitivt noen gode bangers her, men utenom det er jeg ikke helt fenget av Oasis ennå altså

At this point, Wonderwall is a meme and overplayed. But on release, I can see how this song was really impactful. This is a really simple album; it has "big" choruses or whatever they were trying to say in the wikipedia blurb, but it's not frilly big choruses, if that makes sense. It's pretty straight forward music, made for the masses. There's nothing bad about the album, but it doesn't strike me as great. Very good, though, from beginning to end, and no duds. It's just there. Favorite Song(s): Don't Look Back in Anger, Champaign Supernova

They are fine as a band, but I would definitely like them better if they didn't consistently lift from other artists. I'm hearing Stone Roses on two tracks, at least three Beatles melodies/chords (including Lennon solo), and that egregious REM theft.

Sounds like a Wetherspoons carpet tastes

Pretty entertaining and goes down easy. Mmm Best song: Don't Look Back in Anger Worst song: Champagne Supernova

I've got this album around here somewhere and remember it when it came out. Props for its success.

I Said maybe

The kind of album where I couldn't point to any specific thing being "wrong" with it, yet it just didn't click between the two of us at all. We came to the mutual agreement that it just wasn't meant to be between us and that we should probably be seeing other people.

woah, a good album? 3.5

So popular. So so popular. A true test of my aversion to popular things. God forbid I like this. noooooooooooo. I like this. Driving rock rhythm and a voice that fits the music well. Pretty fantastic 90’s alt-rock song. I feel like this one was in a commercial. This one isn’t as good. It feels pretty silly and not in a fun way. It’s fine, but not necessarily something I’d want to revisit. Anyway. Here’s wonderwall. Trying to listen to this like I’ve never heard it. The chorus still sucks, but ugh I actually like this song. Do I unironically enjoy wonderwall?? Yes. Don’t tell anybody. Although it’s not perfect, it’s better than I thought. This song was my SHIT in rockband. Man this is a beautiful song. Really nice melody and one of the better songs I’ve heard doing this project. Of course I already knew it, but mostly as a 12 year old smashing the shit out of plastic drums. Hey now. This one is forgettable. Sort of floating by. Listless britpop. Interlude. Sounds like George Thorogood or however you spell that shit. One time this thing doesn’t autocorrect ridiculously. Anyway. Whatever. Some might say is good. Cool heavy guitars. Nice vocal melody. Sweet song. This one isn’t doing it. Reminds me of feeling depression for the first time and not understanding what it was. Like 2000 type shit. I guess it was ahead of its time. In both depression prognostication and getting the perfect feel for 2001 lite rock. She’s electric??? Don’t rhyme sister with missed her. Although, again the songwriting is nice. This is a decent album. Nice melodies. A little repetitive. Spacey, cool, a little aggressive. Pretty good. More swamp music. Actual live footage of swamp waters. Into the big concert closer. Although, this song is so nice too. I forgot how well the melodies are crafted. There are depressing elements but isn’t that what we’re looking for sometimes??? Yes. Colour me shocked that this wasn’t a pretentious, overly poppy, whining mess. It’s a nice britpop experience with many memorable songs and fantastic songwriting. Obliged to say that wonderwall was decent and Oasis overall has impressed me. Which is what all musical acts strive to do. 3-3.5 HIGHLIGHTS: Hello, Don’t Look Back in Anger, Some Might Say, Champagne Supernova

Full of songs I already knew, didn't like the cough at the start of Wonderwall

TO DAY IS GONNA BE THE DAY THATTHEREGONNATHROWITBACKTOYOU.

Hugest bait right off the bat While I'd say they are one hit wonders, it's still a good album. I just don't use the word "wonder" lightly Wonderwall is wonderful, I wonder what all the hate is about

Enjoyable but not anything more than that

better than I remember ;-)

Never heard of them.

Not a fan of Oasis Few people sound so much like they need to be punched in the face like the Gallagher Bros do. Their 2(2.5???) hits off this album got so much overplay when they came out, it is difficult for me to listen to them. The album is fine, I feel bad for the rest of the band having hitched their stars to these two insufferable pricks. I hope they made enough money that they never have to deal with them again.

I get what the hype. There were a couple of top-notch songs in there. But the second half dragged something awful.

3.1

some classics, but quite a few of the tracks are just kinda boring

Surprised myself how much I enjoyed this. I still think the production is horrible and Liam sounds like a foghorn especially on the supposedly tender Wonderwall. But I like how it is music that is designed to be sung along to. I think that's one of the things people love about them. In our post religion atomised society they offer a rare opportunity for communal singing. A shame how much they've just shamelessly profiteered off that but it's still there despite what a pair of arseholes they are.

bien pero nada no pegamos creo 7/10

The same review as the previous Oasis album. Yep that was a range of sound waves that entered and bounced inside my ear hole and made my brain go “Mmmm music

An improvement on the previous one, songwriting is spot on but Liam’s voice is so fucking wingey, maybe give Noel a shot mate fuckin’ hell LADS LADS LADS

I only like Wonderwall. This album was a bit less whiny than the other Oasis album though, so I guess I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. There are some decent melodies.

Нормально, не особо зацепило

Good stuff. Glad for a reunion

This is appropo to the times.

Not bad, but I don't understand why they got the biggest out of all the brit pop bands. Must be more about the drama than about the music. It's quite samey and especially the singing is really not very good. Sounds as if the singer doesn't like the music. Massively overrated. Favorite song: she's electric.

Trevor, play fucking Oasis

never listened to a whole album of theirs. love the hits.

Some really good songs, I prefer when thekr rock hits hard

It's fine? it's Oasis

Solid!

My teenage ass had Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova on LOOP. And while I’ll probably continue listening to those songs for the rest of my life, they have a cheeseball factor about them now. The rest of the album is just okay. Sometimes I love a whiney song, but a whole album gets exhausting.

The songs were decent. This singers voice was not.

To loud for me

Great album. Some great songs on here.

I liked it a lot more than I expected to. Good instrumentation, upbeat, catchy. I've been missing out. Somehow I preferred the less streamed tracks to the big hits. Highlights: Hello Roll With It

I always disliked oasis, but this was a quiet enjoyable listen to be honest

It was fun listening to the full album but I was never a big fan.

I suppose I'm going against the grain here with this review. I've always thought that Oasis had a good handful of strong singles but also a lot of filler. 'Morning Glory' is their most successful album, so it's a good place to look. 'Wonderwall' is a classic of course and the best song on the album. Oasis are always compared with The Beatles and there is obviously a heavy influence there. But they lack the sheer boldness of Lennon and McCartney. The songs are straightforward and safe. Not necessarily a bad thing, but the Gallaghers are no Beatles in my opinion. Their mastering technique recalls the old Wall of Sound method (which The Beatles did use at the end) and exchanges dynamics for pure loudness. But the effect works and sounds very big. There is a simplicity to Oasis which I suppose helps explain their mass appeal. Undeniably, this is a major benchmark of the 90s and the Brit Pop movement and sold like crazy at its peak. I'm not saying it didn't deserve to sell well but for me, it's far too safe to be that interesting, save a few big tracks.

Wonderwall is a great song and saves the rest of the album. I get a vibe of INXS power pop here, but without the great hooks that were sprinkled throughout INXS's songs. Not a whole lot of memorable music here and even the production seems a bit washed out.

even İ won't deny there are decent tracks but the lyrics are sooooo naff. their best song is riding off the refrain 'where we you while we were getting high?' 🙄

I was there when Oasis was the biggest band on the planet. And I still don't get it. The lyrics are trite to the point of sounding like parody. The music is inoffensive, if not memorable. I did eventually like some of the later Oasis albums, when they didn't sound like they were trying so hard. But Morning Glory is still mid to me, at best.

Oasis aren't as good as Noel thinks they are. Without whiney Liam they might have been better. But maybe his voice was the appeal!

The thing that drives me nuts about this album is that there are sone good songs. Wonderwall is fine. Champagne Supernova is good. Don’t Look Back in Anger is great. The filler songs, though are soooooo lazy. I expect more from a genius, especially if that’s how the artist describes themselves.

Another classic 90s album. Oasis was not my favorite back then but they have grown on me. This was a good album

Totally solid and better than I personally like it (I have a weird bias against these guys I’m not rly sure why lol). I adore don’t look back in anger. Wonderwall used to really annoy me but it’s grown on me some ngl !!

Anyway heres wonderwall

Classic

This is good. Not great, but good.

An unquestionably important album, though sadly outshined by one of its own tracks. The vibe is good, with a modern sound that still unmistakably has roots in blues and rock music. The record delivers on all the parameters that would make it a good album, but it’s not innovative enough for me and also doesn’t suit my subjective taste. It’s well played and I would maybe rate it a 6/10, but on this scale, it’s a solid 3.

I used to enjoy Oasis when I was a teenager, but nowadays, I think I was trying to sound much more cult-like than I was (often in my teenage years and frequently using wrong references...Oasis... hahaha). After listening to their album almost 30 years after its release, I can enjoy it more. It's still pretentious and lengthy but enjoyable for me. "Definitely Maybe" was much better for me, though

Some OK songs. Annoying voice. I'd say 2.5, but I'll round up.

Det er en god plade, jeg er ikke hater! Ikke helt enig i at det er straight bangers, men Don't Look Back in Anger vejer lidt op for at jeg bare ikke synes Wonderwall er særlig god.

6/10

I've never fully understood either the hype or hate for Oasis. They've mainly struck me as a middle-of-the-road British rock band whose brother's theatrics were more a distraction. This album is a bunch of 2 & 3-star songs. With maybe a couple 4-stars and one song that could be a 5, but is impossible to judge because it was so overplayed the year it came out. At least I understand their inclusion on the list, unlike so many other Brit bands.

Pop that manages to sound breezy and powerful at the same time! That’s quite the trick, and it’s not hard to see why it was so popular once upon a moment. And yet, well, something about it feels a tad unessential. Liam’s voice is interesting, but it’s gets a bit wearing over a full album. And most of these tunes, if I hadn’t ever heard them again, I wouldn’t have missed them. So much from that era is oddly but magically indelible, but with the exception of “Wonderwall,” not so much this one. This album is nice, but it just doesn’t feel timeless.

Great - but not as good as I remember is a youngling.

kinda boring

Of it's time. Loved it in the 90s

This old chestnut. The light beer you drink turns to a sort of speed in your blood after you drink enough of them. Walking briskly to the corner shop before they close, you might listen to this. You won’t know that your singing along but everyone else will.

A good bit better than Definitely Maybe but still pretty vanilla.

Some was good. Some was average.

It’s ok, I guess it’s better than Definerly Maybe. I guess I just don’t like Oasis that much, but whatever.

Had a couple hidden gems. Although this was more in my ballpark for music taste, it just didn't hit right with most of the songs.

Anyways, here's Wonderwall

Aggressive, noisy, raw. To start with. Slides into mediocre lager rock which is alternately boring and annoying.

Best Song: Don't Look Back In Anger. I like a song that knows it's designed to be sung-along with. Worst Song: The Swamp Song. Who put this random southern rock instrumental in the middle of this album? Overall: There are exactly three good songs on this album, and from the play count numbers on Spotify, everyone agrees which songs those are. Everything else is completely forgettable British indie rock drone.

I can see why it was huge at its time but it just dosn't feel very exciting anymore. Especially the lyricses are pretty boring. I liked roll with it, wonderwall, don't look back in anger, hey now! and she's electric.

its ok i guess. couple of bangers tho

Algunos classics pero lo demas bastante filler, si no tuviera hits seria regulero lowkey

Quite didn't like their debut record and first record I interacted with on this list "Definitely Maybe" and am afraid with that prior knowledge I couldn't get this record , or even fully appreciate it as it deserves. Mind you am not saying its bad but it's just not for me .

I have heard Oasis compared to the Beatles a few times before, both in status during the 90s as well as in general songwriting. I won't touch on the former, but good god I can see the latter so blatantly. The songs I click with the most are, funnily enough, the songs that feel the least like the Beatles: the infamous Wonderwall, the of-the-time-yet-still-holds-up Some Might Say, and the grand Champagne Supernova. I won't say I disliked listening, but this one will take some time to stick fully. I might come around to the rest of the record eventually, but for now it's got some growing to do.

Liked this when I was in high school and there are still some great songs on here. There are a lot of forgettable songs on here but the singles are great, and the whole thing has a nice aesthetic.

Perfectly okay.

Never listened to the full album before. Pretty derivative of The Beatles but these are well-built pop tunes. Strong 3.

This is the first time I’ve listened to the entire album. I knew the hits but not the other songs. I can see that with a bit of play it would be a good album.

2.5/5. Meh, a bit bland and boring for me. Honestly sounds very similar to their other album on this list. And most of the songs on here all sound the same. I suppose this was not painful to listen to, though.

My sister was the britpop fan in our house growing up, so I've seen this album countless times, but have never actually listened to it. Opens with super distorted Hello. Fine enough song that encapsulates that britpop sound. Wonderwall is a classic to the point of parody, but honestly it is a damned catchy song that deserves all the attention it got. Don't Look Back In Anger is a worthy follow-up on the album. It has always felt like a Beatles song in form -- catchy, eminently singable chorus with solid if a bit muddled instrumentals. Some Might Say has a bit of a wall of sound thing going for it due to the distortion. I like the song, but can't help but feel I'd like it more if it were a bit crisper. All around, fine album. Doesn't get me too excited, but doesn't really dissapoint me either. 3 / 5

I feel like I have stepped back into early high school listening to Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova. Haven't listened to a full Oasis album in a long time. I never knew the lead singer's name (Liam Gallagher) until I just looked it up but the voice is very iconic. I would definitely be able to recognize it instantly. Not a bad listen. 3.5 stars for me

90's alt-rock in a can. Champagne Supernova is an all-timer.

I have tried to get into Oasis so many times, especially when our roommate Aaron in College Park would literally only listen to Oasis I never heard him listen to anything else. Even so, I have never been able to. This album is exactly how I remember, it is quite catchy with some the hits. But it's pretty mid to me. Don't think I will listen to this whole album again by choice. Don't Look Back in Anger is the best song
