Definitely Maybe

I remember this coming out. Suddenly, the whole world was my oyster. I could do anything I wanted despite being a council estate kid with no money. It didn’t matter once I’d heard those opening riffs of Rock n Roll Star and Liam snarling at the world. Get yourself some good shoes, a nice jacket and a smart haircut and you can do anything! A perfect album. Swaggering, visceral rock n roll. Not a bad tune on the album. Mad fer it!

Probably biased, but my favourite Oasis album. Raw rock sounds and distortion in Rock n Roll star Supersonic Columbia etc. Not too complex but everything works great, Live Forever + Slide Away + Married with children make the album more well-rounded.

Amazing - first Oasis album I’ve listened to. Light rock, easy listening

Amazing

I didn’t want to like this. But I did. I liked it a lot. Fml

Definitely one of my favorite albums. Nostalgia hits hard with these one. Vividly remember them playing live in Caracas USB 2009, I went to the concert with my brother. Liam is the most amazing front man i have seen perform. I feel a big 'positive' rage when i listen to songs like "supersonic", while songs like "Slide Away" make me feel more melancholic. This is one of those albums I will listen to my whole life.

Timeless classic

About as subtle as being hit in the face by a shovel, and half the songs are ripoffs of other songs (Cigarettes & Alcohol is even in the same key as Get It On), but it's undeniably fun.

Was served this on the day that Lia, announced the 30th anniversary tour of it. A defining album and moment in Britpop and whilst Oasis became an overblown caricature of themselves you can’t deny the cultural impact of this album

one of those albums where you start to sing with it and end with the last song. absolute classic, one of my favs.

Iconic album, loved it as per usual

I mean it's a classic! Grew up listening to this!

Personal rating: 8,7

One of the best

excellent

Now here's one I can't be cynical about. Just fantastic, balls-to-the-wall exuberance captured as lightning in a bottle. I was on tour with them the week this came out (N Ireland), having never really heard much before. Was blown away how great and *loud* they were at the soundcheck; first up "Cigarettes And Alcohol" which, initially, I thought (genuinely) was a cover of "Get It On". Next: "Slide Away", instantly and forever my favorite Oasis song, as if Verve and The Stone Roses headbutted to make something even better. And they were *hilarious* together, for that brief period before they completely hated each other. Incredible moment in time; this album is excellent, more than good enough to ignore all the rest of their history.

Off the back of starting this project I happened to have downloaded Morning Glory recently and listened to it a few times during a very long drive over the summer. Probably the first time I'd listened to the band since the 90s with one thing and another. And it's full of absolute bangers and made me remember how damned good Oasis were. This isn't quite as good maybe - but it's close and repeated listening over couple of days has led me to appreciate it a bit more I think. The loudness is impressive and the style just iconic - I always preferred Oasis to the other Brit pop bands, although I'm just a little too old to have really been captured by all of that stuff. Really enjoyable with some really strong tracks and nothing that really lets it down. Yeah, I'll listen to this again.

If I had to pick a side in the Blur vs Oasis rivalry I would probably pick Blur...but if you pit the first two Oasis albums against the first two Blur albums it's not even a contest, Oasis all the way.

fantastic of course

Oasis are a brit pop/rock band, started by brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher. This is their debut album. Their second album, "What's the Story, Morning Glory" would propel them to worldwide fame. The stories about Noel and Liam's infighting are both legendary, and hilarious. For example, when in recording sessions for their second album, Liam takes a break and heads down to the pub for a few drinks. He comes back a few hours later drunk, and brings a bunch of random drunk people with him into the studio. Noel is furious, and starts berating Liam and beating his guitars. Liam grabs a cricket bat and hits Noel over the head with it! It is amazing that these two were ever able to make music, let alone the fantastic stuff found on this, and their other albums!! This album is fantastic. I didn't know what to expect, given I only knew their newer stuff, and was unfamiliar with anything off of this record. Overall, this album is amazing. Not a dud on it at all. A nice light rock feel to it. I usually tend to hate brit pop, but this is brit pop with a pulse. It has a more rockin' feel to it. Will 100% listen again!! Favourite songs: Up In The Sky, Rock 'n' Roll Star, Bring it on Down, Supersonic, Live Forever, Cigarettes & Alcohol, Slide Away Least favourite songs: Married with Children 5/5

Absolute class. The album that started it all in the UK

Sometimes you’ll see quotes from Liam or Noel about what a rock star should be and sound like and think, “these guys are ridiculous.” Then you play this again and remember that these guys know what they are talking about.

I fucking love Oasis and I fucking love this album, one of the best debuts of all time by a long shot.

This was always going to be a 5. I’ve listened to it hundreds of times.

Banger. I’m here for all of it

On their debut album Oasis was reaching for the stars and was able to hold it together. Yes, it is derivative, but it is also filled with exceptional music. While not necessarily a reaction to grunge, its harkening back to great British rock bands was welcome. The heavy guitars and tunefulness is as great today as when this was released. Now if the brothers could only get along.

A classic Britpop album. Morning Glory has all the hits but this has Live Forever

Stellar album, Live Forever, Supersonic & Slide Away were highlights, just an easy listen and repeatable

What a debut album. Yes, the lyrics are largely simple or nonsense, but they are so catchy and anthemic it doesn't matter. Their music makes you want to sing with your mates I already love Oasis and this album so it's kinda hard to be subjective.... But, after hearing so many Beatles albums on this list, I appreciate more how similar sounding oasis are and how much they borrowed from the Beatles I regret not seeing oasis live, closest I got was Noels high flying birds. They played loads of Oasis songs so was pretty close and it was great. Strangely got a picture of George best on the cover. Rodney Marsh too though. So many good tracks here but my favourites are: Slide away Cigarettes and alcohol Supersonic Live forever (the best track) Rock n roll star Easy 5 stars

Love it all. Slide Away in particular has always been a fave

One of the albums that formed my world

I mean, it's all fairly elementary. Nothing too groundbreaking, except that 90s rock is just GOOD. And I don't know what it is about Oasis, but damn, I just love their particular brand of 90s rock, combined with that quintessential Britrock drawl. And seeing as this is their first studio album, it's my opinion that they had things soooo right, even from the beginning. This album is fun, easy to listen to, and has just the right amount of 90s alternative distortion. I can't help but love it. This is a 4.5 that is getting bumped up because when this last song finishes, I'm going to start the album over.

I love Oasis, and I know that some of the reasons I love them is why others may dislike them and I think that's fair. I think Liam's voice especially in the early years is absolutely brilliant and unique. I think Noel's songwriting ability is top top tier. You can argue that most of the songs lyrics make no sense, but I think it's a talent to make people feel so much emotion with the songs even though they make no sense. The album just slaps from start to finish. Doesn't get much better than this

Todella hieno debyytti! 5/5

Törkeän kova eikä tunnu kuluvan. Live Forever ikisuosikkeja. Lopussa pari biisiä liikaa, mutta menkööt cd-intoilun piikkiin.

Classic/10

An instant celebration when I saw this album pop up: every single song slapped, maybe bc I've listened to it before but that is besides the point. I enjoyed the riffs and each and every song was better than the last. I love a little bit of Oasis and what they have to offer, definitely a new classic for me and it was amazing.

No question about it. This album IS Oasis.

Album 28 of 1001 Oasis - Definitely Maybe Favorite Track : Slide Away Rating : 4 / 5 Very good album. This came out on the same day I started working for the company I still work for, back in 1994. I was juggling being a single parent and trying to get my feet back on the ground in the working world. My time was split between music and sports talk. While I was familiar with a couple of songs, the whole album just slipped by me. Very good debut album. No arguing that. Thought about rating it a 5 but thought I would only be doing that because of the overall reputation of the album rather than my initial opinion. After more listens, I could change my mind. This deserves more time.

I remember this being released, I was about 11 years old and there was a buzz about this new band called Oasis. They really blew up with the subsequent What's The Story..., but this album as a raw energy and some absolute belters. I remember listening to Live Forever on repeat, then Slide Away, then Married with Children. Fun times.

Love it, which may just be a bit of sentimentality because at the time this was just one of those debuts that made you go "wow". But every time I listen to this album I just think it's great.

Excellent

Hard to argue with this one.

love it

Masterpiece, even if Shakermaker is a bit wank and the production is ghastly.

Feels fresh and relevant after all this time.

Best album ever love it

Yes! What an excellent Saturday album. Bopped along to this while chugging a cup of yorkshire tea - black. A masterpiece 5/5

I don't think I'd properly sat down to listen to a full album by Oasis prior to this, and I really should have sooner. Amazing throughout.

People who say that the britpop albums on here are rubbish are either just talking shite to sound pretentious listening to their weird obscurest jazz album or are hardcore grunge diehards that won’t give into the acceptance that britpop is good (even after like 30 years). Because it’s from a popular band definitely maybe actually has a decent score but I bet the “uurgh I hate britpop” crowd are here somewhere. Anyway the album itself is great though from the obvious great singles “rock and roll star”, “live forever”, “supersonic” and “cigarettes and alcohol” to perfect album tracks ranging from the trippy “Columbia” the punky brawler “bring it on down” and the stunning climax “slide away”. Yeah there is “digsys dinner” which is comical and stupid and “married with children” is quite a half arsed closer. But all the best albums have at least one runt of the litter. The only reason why it might not be a universal 5/5 is liams voice but I don’t hate it; it’s got it’s charm. So yeah 5/5.

From the second this starts to the end, you can practically smell 1994. For me it's the album that changed everything and it stands up. Absolutely storming - controlled chaos.

Rating: 9/10 Debut studio album from Oasis released in 1994, spurred a revival in British pop music and is considered as one of the most influential albums for the ‘Britpop’ music of the 90s. Only Oasis album to feature all 5 members. 1) Rock ‘n’ Roll Star - Such a powerful song to open the album, top vocals from Liam, brilliant solo too 2) Shakermaker - Great riff throughout song 3) Live Forever - One of the greatest songs ever written by Noel Gallagher, incredible song, 10/10 4) Up in the Sky - Brilliant vocal performance from Liam, quite an underrated song from the album 5) Columbia - Simple song, brilliant singing with Liam and Noel on chorus 6) Supersonic - Incredible guitars throughout 7) Bring it on Down - Such a strong song, one of my favourite Oasis songs 8) Cigarettes & Alcohol - Brilliant T-Rex sample, one of Oasis’ best songs, classic 9) Digsy’s Dinner - Underrated song, lasaaaagnnnaaa 10) Slide Away - Classic, again another hit 11) Married with Children - Another very good song, busker classic

YES! This album defined my early teens! The distorted guitar riffs, the off-key vocals (that give it it's all anyways), the corny yet impactful lyrics! I love it all. The album also just feels cohesive and coherent. Each song flows intuitively into each other. Strong album from start to finish!

great catchy pop rock. hit after hit

One of the best albums of all time.

I always maintained that I didn't actually like Oasis, but mind changed. It started out take or leave and then somewhere around Supersonic it got me. Then it just went from there and by the last song, I was well in. I thought it was the drummer that hooked me because gosh damn that drumming is epic... but then the last song had no drumming and in fact, sealed the five stars. Love it. LOVE IT.

- Heard this before - 90s classic - Feel like it's a slightly better album than Morning Glory because it feels more cohesive and not just a lot of singles - Some of Oasis' best songs - Fav songs: Live Forever, Supersonic, Married with Children

The perfect debut album.. Epic!

In order to fully enjoy this album you need to be a teenager in 90’s Britain. Which happily I was. Hard to over estimate the impact this album (and the follow up) had on my generation I’ll never not listen to this without being transported back to my teenage years. Know every song like the back of my hand. Rock n roll Star and Cigarettes and Alcohol remain as alive as ever, whilst Slide Away has matured like a fine wine

Excellent!

This was a time when it was a great thing to have two different albums by one great band in this project. I was definitely familiar with the incredible Morning Glory but not this album, their debut. I really appreciated hearing where Oasis came from before that album. This felt a little more raw and rock n roll and I loved it. I will probably pronounce "sunshine" like this forever more.

Wheeeee! This put me in a GREAT mood and that is not an easy thing to do. Fits perfectly in my brain.

I jumped on the Oasis bandwagon after the follow-up to this album “What’s the Story, Morning Glory?” But I don’t recall ever listening to this album. Glad I did, because it is excellent.

90s defining album

This changed my life. People tend to get very snobby when it comes to Oasis, but they were a cultural phenomenon in the UK. Almost overnight people changed they way they dressed, the way they spoke… A genuine landmark band.

Great feel good album. Very well produced.

Classic

Such a great album. Oasis at their peak. Best Songs: Rock 'n' Roll Star, Supersonic and Slide Away. And Live Forever is one of the great songs to come out of the 90s. The Gallaghers hit a home run here.

I always used to think this was the better of their first two albums. I’m beginning to doubt myself but it’s still an absolute belter. 5 stars all the way.

I don't think I appreciated Oasis as much as I should have. Always loved Wonderwall even though it's become the butt of jokes. It's a legit GOAT song. Live Forever, Supersonic and Slide Away are gonna be on repeat for me moving forward

Enjoyed it

top 5 album for me

Heard a few songs from this, but there's a few I've not heard before, and I'd say I'm a bit more familiar with (What's The Story) Morning Glory?. It's a great album though. I can't help but feel that Liam's voice grates on me just a little bit, the more Oasis I hear, but it's still just an excellent British album. Absolutely love the riffs especially. Favourite: Supersonic

Good vibe. Love the sound

It's definitely a defining record of it's era

Sentimental rating - probably. Not as good as Morning Glory, but still a 5/5

love this album, 9/10

"Defintely Maybe" is the debut album from Oasis. It is attributed to the revitalization of the Brit-pop music in the 1990's and seminal in the whole Brit-pop music scene...more optimistic than what was going on in grunge at the time. I will say that this album is quite a bit more rockin' than what I think of Brit-pop today... really only "Digsy's Dinner" give me that Brit-pop feel. It reminded more of classic 70's with its guitar bridges and guitar over-layers. However, the album creation did get off to a rocky start with the first two productions/producers being thrown away/fired and finally landing on Owen Morris who took away some of the orginal overdubs. The album was a huge success, selling 8.5 million copies world-wide. The album kicks off with "Rock 'n' Roll Star." A guitar intro, well produced, rocks pretty hard. Liam Gallagher, never the bashful one, lives to be the rock and roll star. "Shakermaker" is the second song and single. Slide guitar. The lyrics are about noticing the world around including things like coca-cola. "Live Forever" is slower, more pop-oriented, classic guitar bridge and the first song I remember, being in the US. It was a big international song. Liam continues his stardom quest about the immortality of rock stars. The album second half continues the slew of hits with "Supersonic" and the album's first single. Another guitar -driven song, slower though. Here's the alluded to optimism about getting out and making something out of yourself. I thought I changed the station as "Cigarettes & Alcohol" started and I was listening to T. Rex's "Bang a Gong." A pretty classic 70's glam rock sounding song. That's fine with me. The middle class appeal of cigarettes, alcohol and drugs. "Slide Away" was to be the fifth single from the album but Liam didn't think a debut album should have that many singles. A pretty-standard sounding rock song and structure but these guys do make it sound good. Great vocals by Liam. Songs from this album were the first of the Brit-pop songs I heard for awhile. As I recall we didn't get a lot of exposure to them in the US unless you were specifically looking them (initially, I missed out on bands like Suede, Manic Street Preachers and Pulp). No matter my opinion personally of the Gallagher brothers, this is a very good album which rocked a little harder than I remember.

Great album.

I've already heard this one and I would call its Oasis' greatest achievement because the band just have an incredible energy and a truly admirable love for their craft on this record. The melodies are gorgeous throughout and The production, while very loud, never sounds grating and always guides the listener with only a couple instruments playing at once perfectly complementing the life-afferming feel of the music. An Essential Record.

Such a classic britpop album, full of absolute bangers. Loved this album since I was 14 anyways, don't have many new thoughts about it.

Really digging the nasal voice from Liam on this record. The record has a very heavy Beatlesesque sound which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Oasis adds their own sound to the music while still showing their influences from The Rolling Stones to The Beatles. Although their song writing is not nearly as polished or well crafted, it is still clever and fun. The band had a very clear vision as to what they wanted to sound like and they stuck closely to it. Favorite Track: Married With Children, Digsy's Dinner Least Favorite Track: Bring it On Down

A classic

Really liked it! First album suggested. Oasis rocked harder than I remembered.

Yeaaah pretty great

Is it my imaginašjon

Definitivno možda je ovo jedan od najboljih brit pop albuma. Haters gonna hate.

Didn’t like it originally but over time have realised its brilliant.

Who knew they did more than wonderwall? haha

Is it the best Oasis album? Cover art 3/5

Generation defining. Not a low spot.

Das ist rauh, unverschämt, unglaublich großspurig und brilliant. Ungehobelter als Morning Glory, ungestümer auch weil unbefangener. Besoffen von sich selbst, euphorischer weil das Koks noch als Luxus geschätzt wurde und nicht normal war; man hört den unbedingten Aufstiegswillen. Das Un-Album, fällt mir gerade auf. Und unartig es ist, un-arty übrigens auch noch. Geiles Schlagzeug übrigens, von mir aus hätte Tony Carroll das ewige Maskottchen bleiben dürfen.

Still a corker

Ein Meilenstein! Ein Klassiker! Eine Legende! Ein gottgleiches Album! Nur Knaller Songs drauf! Mit Ausnahme von Morning Glory waren sie nie wieder so gut!

Disco debut al que se le puede pedir poco más. Están viviendo el sueño y no quieren ocultarlo. Reflexión sobre la fama y el origen (Up In The Sky, Cigarettes, Columbia?, Bring it) contra el vértigo de estarlo logrando (Rock'n'Roll Star, Live Forever, Supersonic, Shakermaker), cerrando con tres canciones sobre amor, hacen a este disco de mis debuts favoritos. Sin pretenciones, sin letras adornadas y directo, no es sorpresa que los dejara en un lugar, alto, muy alto, que sería la plataforma de lanzamiento para el éxito de su siguiente disco. Songs: Slide Away, Whatever, Live Forever, Cigarettes & Alcohol, Supersonic, Rock'n'Roll Star, Digsy's Dinner

Uno de los mejores discos de los años 90 y de la historia del Britpop. rock 'n' roll star, Live Forever, Supersonic, Slide Away y más himnos totales de la mejor banda de la historia: Oasis

Mi grupo de la pubertad, quizás su mejor disco pero no mi preferido. Es una obra maestra y redonda y de mis discos favoritos ever.

Already heard it 27 years ago. It's a classic but it's all downhill from there. Saw them in 95 twice and they were great. Last time was Loch Lomond 96. Never need to hear any of their other albums again. But for a while they really were great.

Well, we've finally reached the last Britpop album of the list. It took long enough. Fortunately, we get to end on a high note with the debut album of THE biggest Britpop band of them all, Oasis. Somehow, despite this being their first album, Definitely Maybe feels like the work of a band who know exactly what they're doing. It's really good! Oasis's style was already in top shape at this point in their career, which is great to hear. There are some differences between this album and its followup, (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, but this is clearly still the band who will go on to write "Champagne Supernova," so it's still a good time. The guitars are still super loud, Liam Gallagher's got the perfect voice for the band, and the songs are still super well-written. I feel like this album has a more noticeable Madchester influence than Morning Glory. I definitely got Stone Roses vibes from some of these songs, and it works well. Of course, there are still moments that are very Beatles-y, like the guitar solos on "Supersonic" which are practically stolen from George Harrison's solo song "My Sweet Lord," but if you're going to take heavy influence from another artist, you might as well take the best things from the best artists. Speaking of "Supersonic," that's a really good song! It's one of the best on the album, though the album is full of good songs. "Live Forever" is the most popular one, and I've always loved it. There's something about that chorus that just works perfectly in every way. I love it. Songs like "Rock 'n' Roll Star" and "Bring It On Down" bring in the energy, while songs like "Slide Away" and "Married With Children" give the album some emotional resonance. While I do prefer Morning Glory, I am still rather impressed by the quality of Definitely Maybe as a debut album. It's a great listen and it's not hard to see why this album made Oasis a big deal. I like it. High 4/5.

Their best by a mile. 4+ stars.

Great debut album from a bunch of arrogant Manc twats

Highly impressive. Everyone knows oasis, obviously. I can play wonder wall on guitar, obviously — but I refrain, obviously. I think I’ve listened to morning glory through once or twice maybe a long time ago, but otherwise just familiar with the hits. This, however, is a rocker. I mean really, there are some monster sounds on here. It took a minute for me to take, but it got my attention big. The B side on this is lights out. How cigarettes and alcohol isn’t a mainstay on every rock & alternative playlist is a mystery to me. You can hear all of the influence of all of the great music that came before this. Very good, will involve this in my listening much more going forward.

Great loud guitar sound. Really catchy songs. Good energy.

This was better than I expected. Many good songs, but still a little step behind "Morning Glory". Favourites: Supersonic, Slide Away, Shakermaker, Up In The Sky and Rock 'n' Roll Star.

Oasis maybe not overrated???

Absolute classic, though I do enjoy their later work a bit more.

Still somewhat refreshing to have a band that so unabashedly wanted to be the world's biggest rockstars from the very beginning. And they were able to write the tunes to back it up, not just tuneful, but big enough to fill the arenas and stadiums they were surely dreaming of. If you believe it, you can achieve it and all that, with all the drama and soap opera antics you would expect. It's almost too perfect. And now they get to go on their victory lap. Good on ya, lads.

Easy listening 4 stars

12/09/2026 Not a fan of Oasis, can't say this album rocks.... but it is a steady 4 stars. I have definitely heard better. Spotify listeners: 43.3 million

To me this is leagues better than What’s the Story. But sorry lads you still got nothing on Blur and Pulp.

ah stimmt ihres debüt fick wie isch das ihres debüt. rock n roll star isch seehr en geile song. es isch so lut gmixt haha. live forever au guete song, und er goht drum dasmer für immer lebt emfall. up in the sky isch chli meh en filler aber s hittet ebe trotzdem ziiimli fest. de mix isch schochli muddy. gad bi columbia. Supersonic isch uuuhuuere guet. riese song riese single. schellekranz im refrain hittet extrem. melodie passt riff isch riesig. macht spass. Slide away au saaauguete song. ich find aber über alles gseh hends uf dem nonig die voll perfekti pop sensibilität vo morning glory erreicht gha. es isch scho seeehr sehr guet und so luut und 90er und fun, aber au mengmol chli e mess. git es lieb gmeints vieri underem vorbehalt, dasses halt unfair isch zum artists mit sich selber vergliche und drum e schlechteri bewertig geh. aber es füfi ischs scho nöd. fuck married with children isch en verdammt guete schluss. sie mached d britpop chords.

Versuche das nüchtern zu analysieren: A) Das ist Kindermusik. Das sind einfache Popsongs mit einfacher Struktur und so eingängig dass man sie sofort (er)kennt. B) Das ist Eskapismus - in fast jedem Lied gibt es einen "in my dreams" "up in the sky" "inside of me" Schritt der Dinge nicht echt sondern nur abstrakt und so... definitely maybe macht. C) Der Rock ist 100% radiofreundlich -man kann oft 30 Sekunden ausfaden, die Riffs sind Classic Radio eingängig D) Die Lyrics sind maximal unkonkret - Gefühle und Emotionen und Situationen sind halt irgendwie da und aber das reicht ja auch schon. Wie schon der große Robbie Williams sagte: "what's a wonderwall anyways". E) Liam Gallagher kommt nicht aus London. Der Rest ist schon wieder Handwedeln, aber niemand singt unabsichtlich Sunshi-ine oder Act-ion. Hier wird Anti-Establishment performt. Also? Magst du Radiohits? Das Album ist für dich. Magst du deine sozio-ökonomische Situation nicht? DAifd. Magst du theoretisch Rock? DAifd. Hast du Gefühle? DAifd. Bist du die 99%? DAifd. Kein Wunder also dass es so ein Gen X Album ist (weil unpolitisch und vage statt intergenerational trauma) und auch so ein Millennial Album ist (weil wir Kinder waren).

Great album

Hvem liker ikke Oasis?

I was in music school in the late 80s and 90s and thought I was too cool for popular music, but I was aware of this album, because that's how culturally relevant it was.

Subjectively, I dislike Oasis. Objectively, however, this isn't a bad album. We listened to it while driving and it was good driving music.

Good

The first time ive thought "these Oasis fellas sure love to get loud" which is by far the best reaction ive ever had to Oasis

Suprised on how much i liked it

Didn't love the vocals but the instrumentals more than made up for it

i don’t really know much oasis weirdly but this is dirtier than I thought it would be sonically, I’m a fan!

Oasis - Definitely Maybe I almost wrote “Oasis - Live Forever” It is so goddamn Gallagher to start your musical career, the very first song, with a reflection on being a rock and roll star. It's that sort of absolute hubris that skyrocketed them and ultimately led to people getting bored off their ass to Dya Know What I Mean a couple years later. Wearing their every influence on their sleeves and pretending they sewed the shirt themselves, they came on with just enough brashness but also just enough reflection to temper their untenable egos, at least a little while. R&R Star is a great opener anyway, but this album is all about Live Forever. Arguably the greatest britpop song ever written, a little “do it my own way,” a little cocky hope-ium, a shit-ton of melodic sensibility. It is more sing-along than Wonderwall, in part because it means something. It is more anthemic than Champy Supes. It's similar inasmuch as it is the same basic lyrics repeated, then repeated another time, but somehow it never feels like more. Even the simple solo shimmers throughout. Sometimes it feels like all the air is stolen by their next album. Maybe that's part of what keeps Live Forever so pure… there was always a little distance, a little protection. Besides the two biggies, though, what I remember best about this album was the Shakermaker controversy, the “i'd like to buy the world a coke” melody line. Again, Oasis were their influences. But listening back other stuff is familiar too. “Supersonic” is the obvious one… it's one of those songs I always forget, but it's also one of the band's best rockers, best swaggering arrogance songs. Cigarettes and Alcohol also has a light familiarity. As an American, it's weird that these three were the other singles (probably I heard them for that reason), because in my world this was a two-hit album, and the second hit wasn't an official single, i guess. The stuff that has otherwise been forgotten prior? Hell, I was immediately on board with Up in the Sky, which feels a little like Robyn Hitchcock buckling down to write something without being at all weird (a loss, but I'll take it). I like that “Supersonic” is twinned by “Bring It On Down,” making a one-two punch of proper crunchy rock and roll. “Slide Away” is one of those songs you only really had on these 90s albums, the 11th hour track that puts in serious effort even in the final minutes… i do miss a strong closing team. On the other hand, “Columbia” is fine but not particularly striking. “Digsy's Dinner” is the definition of a throwaway. “Married With Children” isn't bad per se, but it's a total wind-out-of-sails ending. All told, I think this is probably on the ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ end of 3.5. Not perfect, but solid enough to differentiate.

I actually liked this more than I thought

It's just good time.

Album #180: Oasis – Definitely Maybe ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m no Oasis basher. They don’t really need much of an introduction. They are what they are. They’re a great band, they had everything going for them and there was a real reason for them being the biggest band in the world during their time. And seemingly still today! I was personally sickened not to be able to see them live in Dublin when they came here last year. But just a note to say: fuck Ticketmaster, and probably fuck Oasis too for the dynamic pricing bullshit. You bunch of wankers. Anyway, Definitely Maybe is, I’d say, their best album. This is not a hot take, but I think their only good albums were their first two, Definitely Maybe and (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? Everything after that is shit, in my opinion, including Be Here Now. But Oasis are, to me, one of the greatest greatest-hits bands of all time. All their singles, including the ones from their bad albums, are great. They’re capable of an amazing song in every five songs. It’s just that the other four are usually average at best. Definitely Maybe is probably the album where the deeper cuts come closest to matching the singles. For the singles, Supersonic is amazing, one of the best debut singles out there. Live Forever is just a phenomenal, spine-tingling song, with an absolutely beautiful guitar solo. Shakermaker and Cigarettes & Alcohol are great, with the former being quite underrated as an Oasis song. But then you’ve got deeper cuts like Columbia, which has this druggy, grungy glam-rock sound that I really, really like. This is their most druggy album, in my opinion, probably because they were all on drugs at the time. They got a little more polished on (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, and a lot more compressed, (while, to be fair, still being on a lot of drugs) and I don’t like the sound of that album as much as I like the sound of this one. This one sounds great, and I think it’s got better songs on it too. Married with Children is a good, funny little closer, and Slide Away is amazing as well. It might actually be the greatest of their non-single songs. I’m not the biggest fan of Noel as a lyricist, though. His lyrics can be super simple to the point of being really uninteresting. Take that line from Columbia: “This is the future, am I confusing you?” Really clunky. It’s like he just wishes he was back in the ‘60s playing in Jefferson Airplane. It’s trying to be overly trippy for music that isn’t particularly trippy, and it doesn’t always suit the mood. But he’s also capable of amazing lyrics. Just look at pretty much anything in Live Forever. So, while one in every five songs is an absolute belter with Oasis, Definitely Maybe is the exception where the whole album is definitely worth your time.

They are so much better than blur… I think morning glory is a better album but great listen nonetheless!

7/10

8 / 10

It’s got a lot of great things happening but they’re not quite there yet.

não sou muito do rock mas gosto bastante do oasis, esse entrou na minha biblioteca. imagino que seja muito legal ouvir esse numa noite chuvosa enquanto dirigimos.

4.5

4.5 This is actually the first time I’ve listened to Definitely Maybe and I gotta say, probably my favorite Oasis album! Has less of their “big” hits, but it’s a little more early-90s alt rock, the guitar sounds a little less epic, more fuzzy, more grungy, I hear a ton of Stone Roses in the music sound here. A bit funkier, a bit dancier, I bet “Columbia” went hard at a rave. It takes itself a little less seriously, and in that, becomes really really fun. Loved this one.

I actually really enjoyed this one

I guess I like this band more than I thought I did. Cool. 7/10

Grew on me since my first listen, I do really Oasis now.

Classic nostalgic 90s British rock. Sometimes a little whingy.

Still a great listenable album. Not quite as good as Morning Glory but a fabulous debut.

Regardless of what you think of Oasis, you have to give them credit for coming out fully-formed on their debut record. There are no teething issues to be found here. They know exactly who they are from the get-go. They are brash, loud and do not care what others think of them. Any artist able to come out with anthemic hits like "Live Forever", "Cigarettes And Alcohol" and "Slide Away" on their very first record should have nothing to be ashamed of. I'd argue that their second album is stronger as there is less filler there than on here, but I have no issues seeing this record come up in the greatest debut album ever conversation.

Overrasket over hvor nede jeg var med den her! Virkelig fed energi, forstår godt at britpop eksploderede efter det her

Noel y Liam que pesados que son, pero tienen un rolls royce y 50 millones de libras en el banco. Este es su debut, gran debut. Live forever es una canción perfecta, es de esas que cantas para toda la vida dicha por el propio Liam. Married whit two children es emocionante, no entiendo porque, la manera perfecta de cerrar.

Great album, I personally prefer Whats the Story Morning Glory but still a solid 4 stars

Most Oasis fans think the first two albums are by far the best. I do not. While this album is very good, there's just something missing for me. It just doesn't quite get there (or get to five stars). Top tracks: "Live Forever," "Rock 'n' Roll Star," "Up in the Sky"

I like the energy of it. The background guitar drone does get annoying after awhile. I’d say it’s better than average but no masterpiece. 3.5 personally, maybe will round up to four.

I can really listen to the second half since I think it's much better

ill be honest... kinda expected more from this album. i think it would ultimately be a 3.5 for me, as I know what Oasis is capable of later in their career thats probably unfair in some regards, but you can definitely tell that this album has some chops. ill round up to 4 because its Oasis, but a 3.5 i think is ultimately more accurate

Solid album. No big hits, but overall really good. I wish I got into Oasis earlier. I really like them apparently.

I like them but they’ll never be as cool as the Blur sorry not sorry

Not Wonderwall but that’s probably good!

I'm a sucker for that voice I'm ngl

This is a solid debut album. At no point did it lose my attention.

Iconic UK indie album. Favourite songs on album Slide Away Live forever Supersonic

Its was good, some bangers in their. First time really listening to Oasis.

Yeah I like Oasis, there is nothing I can do about it! It's maybe not my favorite album from them but the classic Oasis sound is there and it's a very enjoyable listen that brings me back!

Solid debut album. The tone is a bit muddy and some of the songs are definitely too long. The vocals and lyrics are messy. Iconic oasis sound tho so 7.5/10

Some bangers

You can hear the Beatles influence, both in the sound and in the sense of humour. What I like in things like this as opposed to American Classic rock is the sense of fun and irony. Cigarettes and Alcohol is a good example.

The first album I ever owned! Oasis's best work by some distance. Some nonsense in there (Digsy's Dinner, Married With Children) but the highs are very high.

Loved this!! Good vibes but not my usual listen

A little less overawing than the follow-up, but still has plenty of highlights. I’ve come to the conclusion that Oasis’s success has a lot to do with their commitment to get the full potential out of each and every song. A track that starts off sounding pretty modest and simple becomes something more 4 or 5 minutes later. It’s a maximalist approach, and it works for them.

I'm not super into rock but, Definitely Maybe was a really good listen. Would recommend and would listen again

I´ll say a solid 4/5. my favs were: live forever, supersonic, married with children

me parece un buen álbum debut, buen sonido, me gustan las voces, y está lleno de clásicos.

"Liam and me, we're going to fuck you up." -Jesus (Noel) Quintana

Good album to listen to on a raining morning while driving to work and you don't want to fall asleep in the steering wheel

*listened before the project* *Sigh How can I say I hate this?

My sister loved Oasis. She had posters of them all over her walls. She particularly loved Noel, and was inspired to play guitar. When she wasn’t home I would take out her guitar and music, and attempt to teach myself how to play. Live Forever was one of the first that I could awkwardly fumble through. I got my own guitar a few years later and have been playing for thirty years. I’ve always liked this album, it’s solid, but I don’t find it special. What it does hold is memories. It incidentally changed the direction of my life. That alone holds so much power.

Banger, but Radiohead is still much better

They got some pretty alright songs! But nothing special. Would use as background music at a pub.

very loud, very self-indulgent... i like it!

Angry/Sad Beatles. If only they could get along.

its probably a 3.5 but i like it more than most of the 3s

Nije baš Morning Glory ali nije ni daleko.

Thought was going to be next Beatles. Alcohol and brother fights ruined them.

Takes me right back to being 13. Can't really stand the a lot of these songs anymore but Live Forever triggers something in me that I will never be able to exorcise.

I loved every second of this album, it's almost perfect. i don't believe that i have never listened to oasis, I'm definitely gonna check out more of there discography. 4.5/5

Never been a fan enough to buy an album. But always enjoy it when hearing a couple of their songs. The same here. Album is fine but not great.

it was really good! I've never listened to it in full before, but I had a good time!

Is What’s the Story a tad overrated and is this secretly Oasis best album? Definitely! Maybe

How suiting to have an Oasis album after one of McCartney. It didn't seem so long in my memory but hopefully the bangers are sprinkled everywhere. Favorite songs: Rock'n'Roll Star ; Live Forever ; Supersonic

Listened previously. Expectations: High - Verdict: Great - Rock 'n' Roll Star comes storming through the gates with a rush of adrenaline and sets out exactly what Oasis are all about. The riffs here are great, the songs are strong and the attitude is fully formed. One of the great debut albums of all time.

Good songs

Overall Rating - 3.77/5 (7.55/10). I can hear the Oasis sound fully formed in this album, despite it being their first album. Even a few riffs that show up in their later work.

⭐⭐⭐⭐ När detta albumet kom så var det en aha upplevelse för mig, det var rock på ett annat sätt än vad jag var van vid. Älskade det och för mig var det starten för en annan typ av musikintresse och jag började aktivt leta musik i liknande genres. Nu har jag fått en bredare koll på musik och tycker inte det är lika fantastiskt som då men tycker fortfarande det är bra. Det är röjigt, okomplicerat, skramligt men fortfarande väldigt melodiskt och catchy. För mig emotionellt och betydelse för mitt intresse för musik ör det en 5a. Det är nog inget spår jag egentligen tycker är dåligt, tror faktiskt jag tycker detta album håller bättre än uppföljaren, även om jag tycker om det också. Ett riktigt bra debut album men om jag ska vara objektiv så är det nog inte mer än en 4a. Bäst är Live forever, Up in the sky, Supersonic, Bring it on down, Ciggarettes & alcohol, Slide away

What a fantastic debut album. I can't believe that this is the type of new music that people in the 90s were getting.

Much thicker, heavier sound than I was expecting. Kind of a sacrilegious opinion for this album of all things but it didn't sound particularly British or poppy to my ears. Not a bad thing though, probably why I enjoyed it so much lol. Should probably listen to this on better speakers at some point.

Good listen, great musicianship, very recognisable sound. I'm not unfamiliar with Oasis, but I didn't know some of the songs. Why 4? I only give 5 to those albums that are totally captivating and on par with the albums I listen to for my personal enjoyment and taste, and might actually join the 'rotation'. Here, not so much.

Not perfect but MAN this album grows on you fast. Like those videos of the slime mold growing in the Petri dish to reach the food fast. I started thinking the album was going to be pretty mid and before I knew it I was addicted to the style these guys had and just wanted to keep on jamming and having a good time.

Classixo

I’ve listened to what’s the story morning glory a lot but have barely given this one a chance. It’s good but it definitely feels like it’s the lesser brother of their later album

Good album, I don't think I have any takeaways, but I could see really enjoying this one again. Fun to listen to and some good songs on there for sure.

Omg, that's the most iconic Album Perfect rock, good vibes, such an iconic lyrics love it so much all the songs are great

Solid Britpop. Definitely Maybe a sign of things to come (well I already rolled Morning Glory).

This was the first CD I ever bought. So, so good.

27/06/2026

Knallbra album! Faktisk overraskende bra i forhold til forventningene. Kommer til å høre mer på dette!

I always heard comparisons to The Beatles with these guys but I never really caught it until now. Its like they are Beatles fanfiction OC inserts all over this album. That being said it was pretty good! Lyrically interesting and the production is pretty solid. Definitely Maybe a good listen!

I enjoyed this one slightly more than the other Oasis album on this list! The Beatles are all over the lyrics of this one but I think the overall song quality was better. The hits obviously aren’t as massive but Live Forever is a pretty catchy song regardless

A good album. Not the finest of Oasis but quintessentially them. 4/5

A band I had little time for when then came out as I was busy with Maiden and the like. However, there are some great tunes on here now the musical snobbery has passed. Still not as good as what's the story though...

More of a Blur guy, to be honest, but it's still a very good album. Pretty much the platonic form of Britpop, for better or worse (I think mostly better). Was expecting to like this one more, and it is great, but it's not a five-star to me. I can imagine this being a lifelong listen if you were some London lad in the mid nineties. Fav tracks: Shakermaker, Live Forever, Supersonic, Married With Children

Raucous rock from Gen Z's toxic twins

Randomly saw an Oasis tribute band a few months ago - which was funny as the lead singer was about 3 ft tall so struggled with the Liam swagger and the "Noel" couldn't stop smiling and waving to the crowd. It did remind me that Oasis have a lot of songs that are ingrained into me (despite not listening for many years) and that they still sound good (unlike a lot of Britpop that has not aged particularly well). Their first album was always my favourite - with Slide Away my pick.

What's The Story was their pinnacle, but this was a genre-setting debut. 5 massive songs on the album.

Don't love the mix.

Muy bueno. 🫶

Solid pop album. Probably won’t ever intentionally listen to them again, but I was surprised at how good it was.

Favorite Track: Live Forever

It was so 90's whiny dad rock, and I honestly really enjoyed it. Could not believe this was a freaking DEBUT, good for them.

I've never really gotten into Oasis despite being the right age to get into them. 1994 I was 14, my first year of highschool. Such an incredible year musically; Superunknown, The Downward Spiral, Vitalogy, Weezer, Dookie, Smash, Illmatic...the list goes on. I never gave Oasis a chance. I've heard the singles of course. This was better than I expected it to be but still derivative in places. I listen in one earbud while getting ready for work in the morning. At times I went through two or three songs and didn't even notice the song changed. It's fine for what it is. I would go like 3.5 if I could. I think I'll round up and do the 4 stars here, parts of it did really make me pause and listen more closely.

A phenomenal debut. The songs are urgent, tight, and catchy. Not a bad track from a great band.

I definitely don't love Oasis as much as I did in high school, but I will never get tired of this album in particular. Oasis, for me, is summed up with Columbia. It's a very simple song in every imaginable way and the duration of the outro is hilariously unnecessary. Somehow, it all works. I could genuinely listen to that outro for hours on repeat and I wouldn't get bored. Noel is a very smart songwriter and knows exactly how to write a bunch of nonsense and make it seem like a creative masterclass, both lyrically and melodically. Well, at least he did until Be Here Now, in that instance he flew a bit too close to the sun. Liam's charismatic presence is there to boost that effect and it does so perfectly. I'll take this opportunity to recommend Noel's solo albums, they're surprisingly fantastic considering the quality of later Oasis albums. Favourite track: Bring It on Down

My wife is from Manchester so of course I am forced to listen to this regularly against my will. After the best part of 2 decades I have developed Stockholm syndrome. I now find myself enjoying it and singing along in a faux Manc accent. Mayyyybehhh Am a rock n roll staaaaah. Or mayybehh someone could call the police and free me from the basement I’m tied up in and being subject to Oasis every day. How I long to see the Sunsheeyyyyyyne

Solid. A couple of really great tracks, but ultimately just nowhere near as good as What’s the Story (Morning Glory)?

Well, I’m not going to belabor this with an extensive review because it would shock me if there is a single person participating in this endeavor who is not familiar with this record, the hits from it, and the Gallagher brothers/Kinks like sideshow. It is a good record, but certainly not perfect. Some of it does not even try to hide their influences - The Beatles and T.Rex. And there are a couple of tracks that are frankly just cornball crap. Anyway, it’s good enough to be on this list and yet only 4/5

Enormes

I still say this is as good as it got for Oasis. So much potential. I saw them at a small club in Texas on this tour. Amazing. All attitude and hooks. Then the audience got bigger and so did the egos. Which is fine. You have to believe to succeed, but to me they lost that real swagger and replaced with a more performative version. They had some great songs after this, but it was a decline in quality and effort. Solid 4

Not wall to wall hits like Morning Glory, but I'll never be mad about listening to this. Everything sounds like it was engineered to play as loud as possible.

Me gusta

Заебись

The start of something special

Ich meine es gab viele Alt und Indie Bands in den 90ern aber ich finde dieses Album macht es irgendwie richtig. Zum einen haben die einen eigenen Sound, während viele genau zu dieser Zeit dem Nirvana Grunge sound hinterhergelaufen sind ist dieses Album irgendwie weniger Raw aber nicht im schlechten Sinn. Die Songs sind Catchy aber auch tough. Liams Stimme passt auch einfach perfekt und das songwriting ist einfach gut. Es tut das was es will sehr gut, auch wenn es nicht allzu besonders ist.

Genuinely just one of the most amazing albums ever, and married with children is a generational song, I love ts

damn oasis kinda fucks…

It was alright. I'm not sure I'm the biggest fan of his voice.

No notes

I definitely maybe sorta like this more than I used to

The riffs kick so much ass. Sometimes Liam’s voice in its insistent Britishness takes me out of it, but the songwriting still comes out on top. UPDATE: On second listen, I don't really mind his voice after all. This album rocks.

Definitely Maybe Probably Very Good

Early Oasis is the best Oasis. Guitar forward British pop-rock under the influence of early psychedelic rock. I was never a big fan previously, but apparently, I was biased by only hearing their hits. This album was more interesting and experimental than I was expecting. The songs on the album re consistently good to great. A pleasant surprise.

asfzeghdrftrthf

First time i have heard this album all the way through. It is really much better than I expected, especially with the shitshow it appeared to be putting it together. I gotta wonder why they had two great albums amd the apparently couldn't keep it together? Egos maybe?

4.5/5

I’ve listened to what feels like 30 different Britpop albums for this list and I finally get my first Oasis album. It was better than most of the others, but I know they’ve got better albums to come.

I don't believe in guilty pleasures, but I'm not exactly proud of how much I love Oasis, particularly this and Morning Glory. The hits are overplayed for a reason, they hit consistently. The production is flawless, the swagger incandescent. I have thought about "Supersonic" at least three times a week since this album came out.

I hate that I like this so much given that these guys are such wankers.

My take is every other song on this album is good (read: legendary, iconic), and the rest are duds. Come at me.

I know that people give these guys stick for borrowing too much from the Beatles. While that is true (I particularly get more Lennon from them), the music was still very catchy.

Definitely a maybe for me lol Married with children is so fun

If I ever find myself in a pub I am putting on cigarettes & alcohol and burning it down like a bad ass in a cool jacket and boots… album bangs. 4.4

This is the second Oasis album this site has served me. I had never heard any of their music as far as I know. And I’ve really enjoyed everything I’ve heard! Maybe it feels a touch generic, but I found it quite enjoyable. 8/10 Most Excellent

meh not oasis’s biggest fan but the album wasn’t bad

Jeg begynner å skjønne at Oasis er litt merkelig. De prøver å være så jævlig kule, men egentlig ønsker de bare å skrive pop-låter. Og der har de teft! De åpenbare sporene -- Live Forever, Supersonic, og Slide Away -- er all time great pop bangers. (En form de perfeksjonerte med Champagne Supernova på oppfølgeren.) Så det de egentlig har gjort, er å snike undergrunnen inn i mainstreamen. Ja, egentlig akkurat som Nirvana gjorde på andre siden av dammen. Bare at det faktisk er motsatt! Nirvana ville lage noise rock med endte opp med å lage pop; Oasis ville lage pop men klarte ikke å la være å tilføye litt noise & edge. Musikalsk er de egentlig mer vellykkede for det. Har jeg blitt Oasis-pilled? Kanskje.

Моются два грузина в бане, играют песни группы Oasis. Один другого просит ему спину потереть. Тот соглашается, смотрит ему на спину, опускает взгляд чуть ниже, а у того ну ни одного волоска на жопе! Спрашивает: - Гоги, ты что, гэй? - Нэт, брат, я просто люблю брит поп...

Nostalgic, Authentic, lyrics fucking relatable Like me when maybe i don't wanna die, the guitar on shakemaker does something to me

Pretty cool rock

Holy shit

321/1089 Oasis 'Definitely Maybe' 1994 It's very fashionable to knock Oasis, and rightly so, when it comes to the arrogance, greed and general nobendery displayed by the Gallaghers. However, I cannot give this less than 4★ because it remains so important and defining of the era, especially so if you're GenX. The album is full of bangers, if now overplayed, but on the big hi-fi, on vinyl, it still kicks arse. It's been a long while since I played this in full. It's on the shelves. Heard before ✅️ Listened this time ✅️ Revisit ✅️ ★★★★☆ (8/10) Total reviewed : 321 Already owned : 73 Purchased : 15 To buy : 4 Nope : 229

So many of these songs are engraved in my DNA it's tough to be objective but this is still an incredibly solid debut

Good

Will have to listen again

Perhaps I have a bit of ennui, but whilst I enjoyed this, I didn't think it was 'great'

A solid album with quite a few big hits in here. Not as complete as What's the Story Morning Glory and therefore a 4.

Close but no cigar(ettes & alcohol)

Allora, non è perfetto ma è molto molto bello, oltre alle influenze degli stone roses ci ho ritrovato anche quelle dei mu bloody valentine e dei ride. Ci sono una serie di pezzi iconici

Full of nostalgic anthems

The back half of the album is surprisingly a lot better than the front which is so rare?

LAAARRRVV THIS (best oasis album)

fuck city

really nice

Good album with some real bangers. Felt like a 4.25. Everything felt a little too nostalgic.

Oh this is fine. 4

Love it, oozing so much British-ness

3.5

I remember these guys being pretty big back in the 1990s, but I never really got into them. They've got a couple of hits that I know, and I heard at least a couple on here. The rest was . . . fine. Better than a three, for sure, with a couple of non-hit, but listenable songs. So, this is a low-end 4.

4/5 - This is a great rock album, especially for a lot of the crap that was getting produced at the time. Had been a long time since I listened to it, but happy to revisit. I could care less about these guys' personal drama.

Much better than I anticipated. Cohesive, enjoyable album.

Chato mais bom

4/5

This one took about half-way through the album to click with me. The first few songs felt pretty un-inspired, but about the time 'Live Forever' came through it started to connect. Wouldn't say it's a favorite, but I'm starting to "get" Oasis a bit more now. Even looking forward to their next album...the Gallagher brothers are still dicks, though.

Nice first listen, seeing as my mom's from Manchester and loves oasis

Liked it! Would listen again. Very consistent sound throughout, but that makes it hard to distinguish standout songs

Very nice 👨🏻

Can't go wrong with oasis. This is really good! They get so much flack for wonderwall but I think this album shows their genuine talent. 8/10

Not on the same level as Morning Glory, but still really solid and enjoyable. Highlights: "Rock 'n' Roll Star" (except the outro) and "Live Forever."

If I was still in high school I'd be giving this a 10/10, but after over a decade it's deprecated a bit given my current musical tastes. All said though, still enjoyable. Noel Gallagher had a knack for writing some really damn catchy riffs, and I can still enjoy Liam's nasal "I wanna beeeee John Lennoooooon" voice. Just wish the actual lyrics Liam was singing weren't nonsense half the time. 7.5/10.

Cohesive album that keeps a good time and the lyrics are pretty dreamy too. The tracks don't do much for me on their own though, Live Forever was the only track I listened to beforehand and likely the only one I'll listen to after.

8/10 This rocks.

Premier album d'OASIS. Très rock Pref : Bring it down

It's good! Even without the hits it's still enjoyable.

No strong feelings, I'd listen again.

It was all downhill from here 4.1/5

Great album

It took me longer than most to get on the Oasis train. Kurt had just died and I didn't like the faux hard man posturing of the band, and I hated Whatever. I did like Live Forever though. But it took me until What's The Story to become a fan. There's no escaping the importance of this album. Is it the best album of the 90s, or of 1994? No. But it is essential.

Oasis is sneaky good to me. 4/5

Hey, it's pretty good! 'Simple but sweet' is the best way to describe this album for me. It's not groundbreaking or hugely experimental, and I think that's why I liked it. This challenge can get a bit exhausting at times with how artsy-fartsy some of these albums get. So I did appreciate Oasis kicking down the door and going "fuck that, let's just rock for a bit."

It was awesome to listen to this a day after listening to Blur. They’re really different for being so similar! Great album, great vibe, shout out Noel Gallagher

Another banger album. Oasis rips. Such a skill to make groovy, fun, and catchy music without it getting boring. Nothing here will musically blow you away but damn does it work together. If it sounds great, it is great, and this is great. Favorite track: Supersonic or Married With Children

pane e salame

Great Band! Highlights: Live Forever, Shakermaker, Supersonic, Slide Away and Whatever. 4.0

Rock 'n' Roll Star is sick

Good rock album. Liam's voice does gets a bit annoying after some time. Also the lyrics are so weird. Why does he prononce "Sunshine" and every words that bends ends with "tion" so weirdly.

I generally like 90s music, and this album fits that vibe for me. The singer's voice lends a dreamy sound to garage rock inspired/heavyish music. I did feel that sometimes the music overpowered the vocals, though, but I liked how heavy it was. I did love the music, especially the songs in the second half ("Supersonic", "Slide Away", "Married With Children").

Google and classic

unfortunately i kinda rock w oasis

Amazing album; "Live Forever" is one of my favorite Oasis songs

A good album, on balance I probably prefer What's the Story (Morning Glory) but there's plenty to enjoy here. 'Supersonic', 'Up In the Sky' and 'Married with Children' are my personal favourites.

Très bon, 1 morceau générique boring mais le reste top

Nice

Nice work boys, catchy all around.

I should learn to play some of these songs for parties.
