Review of Don't Believe The Truth (Limited Edition/+DVD/Parental Advisory) [Digipak] [PA] - Oasis

where oh where have this great band gone

Advantages: still an amazing album
Disadvantages: there is no richey and that left a lot for them to make up for

...certain spark. This is my truth tell me yours lacks that. it must have something about it i agree it did get them there first number one hit with "if you tolorate this..." but maybe the fact that this album stored their first number one says something. Its good i agree with that. though the only really good tracks of it are the ones you have heard as singles the rest of the album is medeocre pap really, but still better than most things that have ...
...I would say give this album a listen and it does have its high points that almost lead me to believe that the old manics are back just for a split second. SOme of you might prefer it if you like a more mellow and ( if i may say so)slightly dull sound to them. but over all i'd say give me my old manic street preachers anyday ...

Review of This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours (Limited Edition) - Manic Street Preachers

Oasis- Stop the Clocks

Advantages: 18 quality tunes
Disadvantages: An unneccesary purchase for fans who already own thier studio albums

A greatist hits collection comprising of 18 Oasis tunes, this is a necessary purchase for anyone wanting to hear a selection of Oasis' best songs. Although this is a strong greatist hits album, my personal opinion is that if you already own oasis' study albums your not missing anything. The DVD is worth watching, but not something you are likely to go back to on a regular basis. In my opinion this is an album for 'music lovers' not 'Oasis fans', ...

Review of Stop The Clocks (Limited Edition/+DVD) - Oasis

can the manics get back on track?

Advantages: at last some decent riffs!
Disadvantages: still not the same without richie

...bk to their roots with this (in my book) highley acclaimed album. nothing will compare to the albums made when richie was in the band, but this is their best effort to date. deep lyrics and a mixture of soothing melodies and rockin guitar solos, this is definately worth a listen by anyone thats heard of the welsh lads. # my little empire is a chilled out track (if a little sombre) made for chillin out to, whereas the more upbeat # black dog on my ...

Review of This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours (Limited Edition) - Manic Street Preachers

GRAHAM MUST BE KICKING HIMSELF

Advantages: Well produced album brimming with ideas
Disadvantages: a few weak links make the skip button necessary

This album marked a departure for Blur in many senses. First of all guitarist Graham Coxon quit during the recording sessions having only contributed to one track. Secondly, despite being a quintissentially English pop band Blur chose to record in Morocco and this has clearly influenced their music. Also after the somewhat difficult and downbeat albums, 'Blur' and '13' this record shows a willingness to embrace pop melodies again and has a greater ...
...to make great pop song with his willingness to experiment. The album is influenced heavily by its surroundings with African instruments and musical styles easily identifiable. First single 'Out of Time' is quiet and understated, with a sense of supressed optimism as well as a knowledge of impending disaster. 'Brothers and Sisters' takes on the theme of addiction and marries it to a gospel style. 'Good song' has a gorgeous guitar line and lyrics of ...
