The record is comfortingly familiar and yet frequently surprising. The production on it is far rawer and sparser then Oasis, mainly due to the fact that much of it was recorded in seven weeks.
Some of the songs were originally destined for a a future Oasis record, but others are far more recent.
Many of the old touchstones remain, like for example the Lennon-esque piano hook that nailed-on to single 'The Roller' is built around, or the fondness of big anthems like 'Kill For A Dream' and 'The Beat Goes On'.
But those moments are tempered with the stack-heeled glam-metal of 'Standing On The Edge Of The Noise' the lean 12-bar blues of 'Beatles And Stones' and the six-minute psychedelic lucid dream of 'Wigwam' whose opiated wooziness and wisful "sha-la-la-la-la" chorus amounts to the finest song Liam has ever written.

Whole NME issue, tbh. I have a question about Gem's relationship with Noel. Was Gem playing with Noel for his recent acoustic show? |

I mean, that was after the split? There's talk about chosing sides and just texting these days, but it's kinda meaningful that he performed with Noel while recording with BDI, is all.

Babu. U mad that Hanoi Rocks are the best band/artists/etc ever of all time from Finland? the most revered, general consensus, etc etc.  An inarguable FACT. This must make u real mad ! Fuck hopefully the new album will sound like early motley crue. no, not really no. they're good in their genre, it's just not a genre for me. |
