What does /mu/ think of Oasis?

Oasis fever is coming back because of the reunion so here is my take I guess

Me personally, I kinda like some of their more popular songs but never really got into them because of Liam's voice, in my opinion Noel was always the better singer.

I still think Liam sounds great especially on stuff like Live Forever and Acquiesce but I just like how Noel's voice is more deeper and how he doesn't sneer it like Liam does

what do yall think?

>>127450091 (OP)
I think liking Oasis is a great signifier that you need to listen to more music. Not having a go at you but you did ask.

I feel similar, great hits but rest of their catalogue isn't amazing

that being said, I'm debating dropping $300 to see them in Chicago next week. I've never been a massive fan, but I told myself I'd see more concerts this year and I've seen zero so far

I hope the atmosphere at Soldier is decent, I know it won't match the English dates but that's expected

>>127450278
OP here, I listen to a bunch of stuff from the 80s and 90s as well as some 2000's stuff. I've been more of a grunge/metal person for a long time but have been to listening to more of the rock/pop recently and decided to check Oasis out because of the reunion (idk what you would call it, just less heavier stuff like Panchiko, Placebo, etc.)

I like a few of their songs but I still much prefer other artists

>>127450376
It's hard for me to listen to them without
>hmmm that bit really reminds me of something

For instance his whole
>SHIIIIINE
thing is recycled Lennon on Rain but of course he has to use it on half their catalog.

"They're like the Beatles!"

What you SHOULD have said is, "let's all pretend this band isn't mediocre so r*p doesn't take over music"

>What does /mu/ think of Oasis?
Biblical. majestical. Celestial. GODLIKE
>in my opinion Noel was always the better singer.
He sings on the b-sides just as often as Liam. It's almost like a different band entirely
>>127450561
Let's all make believe you DON'T STINK LG x

>>127450472
OP here! Sounds pretty interesting, I knew about the whole Beatles and Oasis thing but never knew that, pretty cool to see he at took inspiration from someone as influential as John Lennon. I just wish he didn't overuse it

>"Yeah Oasis is bigger than The Beatles they are goin' mad fer it!!"

To be honest in my opinion their albums only got worse as the years went on, as well as Liam's voice, probably due to the feud with his brother Noel or maybe just age, I don't know. His voice on Dig Out Your Soul just sounds weird compared to something like Be Here Now or Morning Glory.

Once again I haven't listened to much of their discography so my choice of words is kind of limited so I don't just end up saying some bullcrap about them

>>127450091 (OP)
>what do yall think?
I like them. Not a total fan tho. I think music would benefit from a band like them nowadays that everything is utter shit.
Also, Noel brought back the hype for the mellotron, an almost forgotten instrument that has a big part in rock history.
The sponsorship with Adidas and that parka brand was super cringe in my opinion for their comeback.

>>127450664
OP here! Not going to lie, the Adidas collab is cool but yeah I agree it was cringe

To be honest I think the reunion is more of something they are doing for profit, I don't think they are going to record any new music or anything for a long time if at all

Also I have never heard of the mellotron but it seems like a neat little instrument. The wikipedia page also says that Radiohead used it on OK Computer, pretty wild if you ask me

I like them. Wish they would have gotten back together a decade earlier. Liams voice in his prime was the GOAT.
It has never been the same but glad they are back.

>>127450762
OP here! I agree. I feel like if they got together sooner it would be a lot better overall, especially vocals wise.

Also those youtube videos are perfect examples of Liam in his prime

>>127450091 (OP)
Asking people's opinion of Oasis is a better classifier than flags.

They aren't Steely Dan but what they do is FOOKING MEGA it's so good they're back. The 90s really were the best times

>>127450331
Buenos Aires is going to be something else

>>127450091 (OP)
they’re NEVER GONNA BE THE SAME

>>127450331
OP here! If you do go I hope you have great time there! From what I have seen online the stadiums are usually packed with the whole crowd singing for the hits and stuff, the atmosphere is crazy

They got a ton of merch there if you are interested

>>127450091 (OP)
Never listened to them besides their radio hits. They look like insufferable douchebags. I hide all the threads of them because I hate their middleschool retard bowl haircuts

Go oasis yeah ! Don't stop

>Filtered. Jog on fat yank
NTA but filtered by what? Are you implying he needs to be more intelligent to "get" a rehash band?

>>127456031
>t. Can't handle the Waysis bants
AS U WERE FAGGIT X

>>127450278
Listened to about 5000 albums and they're still among my favourite bands. There's an honesty and primal force, especially in their first album, that's never been equaled.

I pity faggots like you desu. You have no taste and most likely no soul. You abandoned the shit music that you liked when you were young, and are probably embarrassed by it. You got filtered by yourself. So you have to go in search of "better music" and in the end that means you'll always be a pseud. Big brains like me, I just plugged into Oasis at age 10 and that was it. Simple as.

>>127450091 (OP)
>What does /mu/ think of Oasis?
i don't think of them at all

no, that's just advertising and marketing.

Bumping just for you, cunt

>>127450561
I've never once thought that they sound like Beatles at all.

>>127450762
recent live vids show Liam's voice in the best form it's been in a decade. he's adding little vibrato bits which he never did before. speculation is he's got a vocal coach and is taking care of his voice this time

>>127458803
means yave heard more than one tune good one ya lad. Can't say the same for the smug as shite antimadferits. Madabouttit's I say LG x

>>127450331
Their catalog is insane. Their b-sides are better than most bands’ entire output.

>>127458853
OP here! Seems as if he is getting better vocal wise recently. Having a vocal coach would definitely explain that very well, it does sound pretty good in the reunion. I hope he keeps on getting better

Oasis exists to remind the rest of the planet how insufferable, boring, and intellectually bankrupt British people actually are, beneath the glib verbose charm

>>127450091 (OP)
i purposefully avoid any music that women, hipsters, or self-proclaimed intellectuals listen to. and i certainly don't listen to anything /mu/ likes, so i don't listen to oasis

>>127450091 (OP)
i was there the first time and i am glad i was, but like much in my life, i do not want to go back. Definitely Maybe and Morning Glory albums changed my life as a teenager. even if they hadn't split in 2009 or whenever i wouldn't have been going to see them. i will listen to the albums occasionally but they no longer have the soul they once had. we are all different now.

>>127456079
The fact that you started coming out with insults, when I was very polite to you has proved two things. Hopefully when you grow up you'll know what they are. Tut tut.

>>127458898
>means yave heard more than one tune good one ya lad. Can't say the same for the smug as shite antimadferits.
Oasis are very, very English. I had an English friend growing up whose parents moved to the U.S. for careers and he was a big Oasis fan. I liked Nine Inch Nails and we had gay high school wars over it. The Brits cling to that. They always prefer to keep some distance between themselves and whoever they're colonizing.

One time he eventually built up enough courage to grab some beers out of his parents' fridge and we were going to walk down to the park drinking them, which in the South is illlegal. Not the Souf, the South. It's not the same thing. His mom was like "oh dear, you can't... oh fuggit."

Oasis is fucking shite

Blur are better in every single conceivable way

>>127450091 (OP)
Shitty pop rock band/Beatles ripoffs

>>127450091 (OP)
They were neither good nor bad enough to think seriously about. They had their moment with some songs in the 90s and it has long since passed. Anglos dramatically overrate them like they do most things that belong to them. A good example of an overrated band.

ITT: fat yanks still seething about Liam and Noel

>>127462286
From an American who went to see them in Heaton, it was pretty jarring to see how many American shirts there were around. Only one NIN but most others were in that same range. Oasis also doesn't usually get too many "madaboutits" stateside either but most seem pretty unphased. Oh yeah I also knew almost every song by heart and a lot of the locals didn't so there ya go

>>127462317
100% fact.

Damon wishes he could sing like Liam. Noel wishes he was as adventurous as Damon

>>127462286
Cool story dude. Your picture looks like a retard convention.

>>127467272

New album when?

Oasis is ok, like, the records are ok, but Blur is so much better, it makes no sense to compare though.

Live Forever best tune

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANTIp1_oLlI

Great remix by some teenage indians

Blur was more creative in every way. Also Liam’s voice is too fucking grating for me. Fun to read about what oasis was getting up to when they weren’t playing music though.

>Basically no one here gives a shit about Blur one way or the other
>Oasis is back in the spotlight
>All the Blur fans came out at once
100% organic, not mindless contrarian autism

>>127470032
I find Damon's voice grating when he's trying to be punk or too cockney, so much better when he's just singing softly. Liam's voice is pure rock couldn't sing something like NDLTR

>>127470550

>>127470206
Noel and Damon are cool now even Liam said Blur are a guilty pleasure

>>127473817
Nice reading comprehension

>>127450091 (OP)
What's the Story Morning Glory is probably the best album of all time.

It's insane looking at an album where nearly everything is a canonical classic of a nation.

Personally prefer Pulp, but fuck, Oasis defined a decade of a nation.

Fun story.
My parents were in london and were by his house. Then it turns out he actually was leaving his flat.
My dad was like ffuuucckkk, and asked for an autograph, the closest thing he had was a gas bill.
He gave it over and Noel said
>i aint fucking paying that you cunt
Then walked off.

I like the first three albums, a lot. After that they almost completely lost their bollocks. Heathen Chemistry was alright.

>>127474508
Falling Down was a great track, remember it from some anime, sounded very un-Oasis.
Music video was insanely on the nose.

>>127450091 (OP)

>>127474355
Comprehend this shill: Oasis threads are my toilet.

Shitcunt say WHAT?

as you were LG x

>>127476598
I miss Liam's daily Twitter updates. Too bad that his 'fans' in that cursed app are such massive bitches and ruined everything for the rest of us.

>>127476856
I now remember the meltdowns on the Morrissey forum whenever he did a wrongthink, Liam needs to step up his game. Imagine if he came on stage at the next gig saying "phwoar it smells like pakis here someone open a window"

>>127450091 (OP)
>Liam's voice, in my opinion Noel was always the better singer
hi Noel, greedy cunt

>>127458946
which b-sides to start with?

Sad Song, Idler's Dream, I Can See It Now, Cloudburst, It's Better People, One Way Road come to mind

I hate that website so much it's unreal. Even Moz hates it.

>>127474508
After BHN i got into Hendrix and stuff so Oasis faded away but with their revival i've listened to SOTOG and some songs are stand out others are filler
Standouts
>Gas Panic
>FITB (drums lifted from Hebdrix/Mitch Mitchell'sLittle Miss Summer)
>WDIAGW
>Who Feels Love
>Go Let It Out
Production is top too

Fun fact: Oasis are back together because Noel has a terminal illness

>>127478322
This, I can't respect Liam until he stands up for white people in England.

>>127479787
utter dregs mate, the lowest of the lowest

>>127480598
his face got really droopy maybe he's on prednisone

>>127481233
Nah he has cancer. He'll be on chemo after this tour next summer, and disappear.

>>127450091 (OP)
Blur is ass compared to oasis, oasis live albums are amazing, liam is the soul of that stupid band.

>>127450091 (OP)
They have no good songs IMO.

>>127482310
In my favt you got shit taste how bout that

>>127481603
I've only listening to Knebworth. Any other recommendations?

I find their songwriting style to be far too varied, too many unexpected moments, just wild flights of creativity and fanciful invention, boggling my fucking mind far too much. If they could just try to hone it in to one recognizable style I'd be a total fan. What is this, a prog band? Idk it's just like I start by hearing a guitar and a fetal alcohol syndrome dead eyed moron droning on, that's enough for me, I don't need all the song parts and instruments. I'm not fucking french

>>127482340
Knebworth is in no way their best live performance. Check out
>Oasis By The Sea
>Oasis There and Then
>Oasis G-Mex (peak imo)
>Oasis Live At Barrowlands
People can say whatever about them but they were/are a tight live band

Well Be Here Now dropped on Thursday August 21, we just passed Thursday August 21. It's as good a time as any, an alternate track list since frankly rKid's never been great about those
>D'You Know What I Mean (2016 mix)
>Flashbax
>Stand by Me (~1 minute cut)
>Going Nowhere
>(I Got) The Fever
>I Hope, I Think I Know
>The Girl in the Dirty Shirt
>Stay Young
>Don't Go Away
>The Fame
>It's Gettin' Better (Man!!)

>>127484227
Gonna have to give this a run through. Imo DYKWIM is the best track and a good running album can't have the best track as an opener, should've been track 3 or 4.

An opener for a great album should be breezy/upbeat and not overly long (RnR Star or Hello/Roll With It or Black Cow on Aja or All I Want on Blue)

Maybe i'd have Stay Young as first track.

Also was thinking the same for SOTOG. Some tracks are amazing some are filler but i never liked the track listing

Oasis is so absurd that they had to left era-defining songs like Don't Go Away and Stop Crying your heart out of the tour because there are so many good songs and they could not fit it all

It is like Kurt Cobain coming back from the dead for one last tour and leaving Heart Shaped Box out of setlist

>>127486703
Well DGA it a complete theft by Noel off The Real People...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YH1FBmWL0V8&t=92

I didn't know until this vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9-JjqJMHRs

The set list is great and no complaints, so happy DYKWIM is in. Just from a personal view i wouldn't mind (trying to keep a similar vibe to the set list)
>Columbia (drop Fade Away)
>Gas Panic (alternate with DYKWIM)
>Hey Now (drop Cast No Shadow or LBL)
>Who Feels Love (drop Whatever it's the song Liam's voice is struggling with most too)
>Where Did It All Go Wrong acoustic (drop TT or HTWA or LBL)

>>127486667
On one hand, I agree that D'You Know What I Mean's the best off the album (it's even in my personal top 10 overall) but I'm too used to it and anything else feels wrong. It's also a lot easier to parse the filler on SOTOG but it also leaves a really dour tone for almost the whole thing
>Fuckin' in the Bushes
>Go Let It Out
>Who Feels Love?
>Full On
>Carry Us All
>Gas Panic!
>Let's All Make Believe
>Where Did It All Go Wrong?
>Sunday Morning Call
>As Long as They've Got Cigarettes in Hell
>Roll It Over
Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is, not half bad and I'd have left it if not for that grating one note synth that's running through the whole thing

>>127486703
>era-defining songs like Don't Go Away

this is a fucking shit awful song jesus christ

>>127486703
>Don't Go Away and Stop Crying your heart out
they will be added for the US gigs.

>>127450091 (OP)
They're one of the greatest bands of all time. Their B-sides and demos are better than most bands' entire discographies. Blur is not even in the same stratosphere.

>>127483412
My favorite "Oasis" live is probably Noel and Gem's charity concert at Royal Albert Hall.
