ehm well, yeah, i have it. i was quite confused when i listened to it for the first time, i didn't like it too much. but for me it's definitely a grower and by now i think it's really good. there's some great music on it. my opinion ;)

It is a very good album actually. And I've said all week it was heading for below 50. Possibly in the 60s or 70s.

Wow. It's been in the 50s on iTunes and way down in the 90s on Play this week. Slightly better than I expected. It's still 43 though.

I do really like a few of the songs off the new Oasis album but as an album it is no-where near as good as 'Ode To J. Smith' in my opinion or any of the other great albums of the year like 'Accelerate' by R.E.M. and 'Viva La Vida Or Death And All His Friends' by Coldplay. 'Dig Out Your Soul' does have some great moments on it tho, I will give them that.

I totally agree. It isn't as good as Ode or Viva but still, I think it's good. :) Best Oasis album for 13 years in my opinion though I did think the last one was good too after 2 poor albums. :)

Quite a brilliant album.

Not too bloated like Be Here Now, and is quite cohesive.

Some amazing sounds, and Liam's vocal has never been stronger, particularly on I'm Outta Time and The Turning.

Noel and co are geniuses, unfairly maligned.

Not sure whether I'll get it or not... probably will eventually if the price is right. My priority is the Keane album at the moment, getting that tomorrow. :)

Yes, i agree about Liam's vocals. They're really strong. I don't love every song, the last one for example starts nice but just goes on and on and on... zzzzzzzzzz

But over all i think it is a very good album. Deserves to go to number one, but then again, so does Ode.
