My thoughts:

Oasis are truly just a one in a life time band and have not made a bad album and theres no exception here, oasis are with out a doubt one of the greatest bandsin the world at the moment and have great cahrector this album i feel shows both theses positives

Heathen chemistry is for me a totally underrated album i have heard many people slate it, this really annoys me as it is such great album, this is one of those alums were you should stick it on full blast lock your door and just chill, let the amazing guitar riffs and vocals send a musical shiver down your spine.

Oasis have been known throughout the world for creating outstanding music and have always been rated at the top only last year oasis won best band, i must admit though this album m has a twist its most songs are not as heavy as there other albums such as be there now.

I love every son on this album no lie i can listne to it again and again but my favourite songs have to be Hung in a Bad Place as it is just a great rock son with an interesting guitar riff,She Is Love as it is such a peaceful song ,Songbird as it means something and Little by Little this is probably because this son sounds heavily influenced by pink floyd it has that sort of feel about it and is just a great song. Songbird was written for Liam's long term girlfriend Nicole Appleton and was Liams first song he wrote to hit the charts. She is love is written for Noels girlfriend to which i feel makes this album more personal.

Don't forget to listen to the hidden track :)
