"hello" its ok but its kinda boring, like its a very formulaic. the fake wonderwall intro is good "roll with it" has a very beatlesque vocal harmony, but the song has the same problem as the previous one, its very formulaic and predictable. im seeing it will not be an album that takes risks "wonderwall" i hate the guitar. i dont like the melotron, i dont even know why they added it. i do like the vocals. the drum sound like the Metallica's st anger pan tone. and i have to add that this song has really pissed me off after listening to it so many times. "dont look bad in anger" i really like the chorus. i like all the instrumental besides the drums, i think all the album is going to have this sound. the verses are good too. "hey now" i like the rhythm it had my leg being a metronome. i think its kind of long, it could be a minute or two shorter. i think has most of the songs in this album its formulaic, but it aint a bad song, just that its kind of the same song after song, waiting for a hit. the interlude is better that wonderwall lol "some might say" i dont wanna repeat myself, but its formulaic and not only that, but all the formulaic songs follow the same formula, which i can see it has reached its peak and its not so high. i also have to add that the whole album has weird lyrics, they're a bunch of nostalgic/sad phrases tossed in a boring instrumental. "cast no shadow" if wonderwall didn't existed this would be the worst song of the album. its, as always, formulaic, but this time it isnt boring, its just annoying. the choirs (the "(ah ah)" and "(pride)") make my ears bleed. "she's electric" i kind of think the rhythm its good but dont feel it. and the rest of the song is boring. the highs of liam in (for example when he says "and i wAnt you to say") are not good sounding. "morning glory" i like the guitar, the rhythm and the vocals, not crazily but its pretty good. when liam says "what's the story morning glory" its the peak of the album. the solo is good. best song of the album as far as now 8,5 or 8 outta 10 "champagne supernova" i like the vocal harmony but not much the mix, i think they're a bit low ( i know britpop has things of shoegaze but still), i like the instrumental but i think the whole shoegaze style of the song its not very well performed by the band, anyways its not a bad song and i like the solo. As a whole the album has a lot of bad things: its very formulaic , repetitive and consequently plain. its a kinda funny album, like it can entertain you but not more, don't try to look complexity or smth interesting in it cause there's nothing. its simple and plain. its not a terrible album tho, it is just mid. between 5-6 outta 10
