episode Oasis - Heathen Chemistry (2002) cover

Oasis - Heathen Chemistry (2002)

"But my pod woke up on the wrong side of his cast . . . " Eight years from their explosive debut Definitely Maybe, Oasis had graduated into stadium rock stalwarts. Their previous album, Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, was met with lukewarm response; its psychedelic flourishes and laid-back vibe were a far cry from the ear-crushing, electric guitar-dominated sounds of their early work. It's no accident that 2002's Heathen Chemistry begins with "The Hindu Times", a sinewy riff that recalls some of their earlier successes. It also seems likely that "Little By Little" and "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" were written with arena singalongs in mind. Then . . . there's the rest of it. From very high highs to puzzling lows, Oasis' fifth studio LP is the band at its most confused. In between the obvious highlights, what are the gems and what are the stinkers?

Oasis - Standing on the Shoulder of Giants (2000)

"Kids are running around naked, podcasting in the bushes . . . " As the popularity of Britpop declined, Oasis found themselves at a bit of a crossroads. So, they decided to switch things up. They ditched their iconic logo for one with a more futuristic typeface, added some psychedelic flourishes to their songs, and used a completely non-British photo of the New York City skyline. for the album cover. The end result was Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, an uneven affair that nonetheless features some top-notch Noel Gallagher compositions and some of his brother Liam's best vocal performances. The public may not have gobbled it up like their previous releases, but it kept the band top of mind as they graduated into reliable stadium-rock mainstays in Europe.

Oasis - Be Here Now (1997)

"Kickin' up a storm from the day that I was born / Cast a pod with me, one from 'Let it Be', open up your eyes get a grip of yourself inside . . . " In 1997, Oasis was the biggest rock band in the world. So, it was befitting they released an album grand in scope, length, guitar overdubs . . . well, grand in everything. Unleased onto the public at the end of the summer, Be Here Now flew off the shelves, blasting out of stereo speakers and Sony Discmans around the world. The fans and critics raved, with some going so far as to call it Oasis' best yet. When the mania subsided, a critical reappraisal took place. Was Be Here Now an overindulgent, cocaine-addled mess? Maybe. Was it the symbolic end of Britpop? Possibly. Nearly three decades later, though, it remains an important piece of the band's history. "D'You Know What I Mean" and "Stand By Me" are classics, "All Around the World" is an earworm, "My Big Mouth" and "Be Here Now" are driving rock songs, and there are other gems throughout. Ambitious, overly-long, bone-crushingly loud . . . but most importantly, a whole lot of fun.

Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory? (1995)

"Someday you will find me caught beneath the landslide, in a champod supercasta in the sky . . . " After Definitely Maybe exploded onto the scene, Oasis was charged with the ever-difficult task of following up its success. In the spring of 1995, they decamped to Rockfield Studios in Wales armed with Noel Gallagher's newly-minted tunes. Just over two weeks later, they completed their second album (with a ton of soon-to-be-classic B-sides left over) - by all accounts, a breezy and productive session only marred by one dust-up between Noel and Liam. Released in October 1995, (What's the Story) Morning Glory? was an immediate smash in the UK. It expanded upon their debut LP while maintaining the band's stadium rock bona fides; the power pop of "Some Might Say" and "Roll With It", lighters-in-the-air anthems "Champagne Supernova" and "Don't Look Back in Anger", and pulsating rockers like "Hello" and "Morning Glory". Oh, and some acoustic song by the name of "Wonderwall".

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
