STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS-OASIS
ive retitled this album 'standing on the shoulders of egos'
SOTSOG was oasis 4th album and was no better than the terrible 3rd album 'be here now'.
its pretty sad when the two best tracks on it are the instrumental(fuckin' in the bushes) and the Liam penned(little james).
im actually sitting here shaking my head because i cant say a single positive comment in regards to it. although not as long as the tracks on the previous release the majority still clock in at 5mins or over. the music is too repeatative,the lyrics have no substance or intelligence about them. one song title sums up where oasis were between 1998-2000 'where did it all go wrong?', i have a fair idea i know: too much booze and heavy drugs, and believing their own myth that they were the Beatles reincarnated. the album contains loops,indian instruments, backwards guitar parts, its just an overblown attempt to be Beatles,circa 'rubber soul'/'revolver', minus the class, which equates to 'ass'.three singles,'go let it out#1, 'who feels love?'#4, 'sunday morning call'#4 made the UK charts and the album got to #1, in the USA no singles charted and the album only made it to #24.
thankfully Noel Gallagher came to his senses after this album and went back to writing proper three minute pop songs with melody, their albums post 2000 were average to good affairs,but they couldnt match the greatness of the first two albums or the very good b-sides album 'the masterplan in 1999.
I DISLIKE THIS ALBUM WITH A PASSION!
