Finally

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

SUCK IT UP BRUV!

Yeah, great second half of the album. There isn't a bad song as such on it, but I can't see me caring much for Millionaire, Beatles and Stones, Bring the Light, The Roller and Three Ring Circus in a couple of months.

Liven up a bit Matty boy. You're on your first few listens FFS.

True, true. The best songs are the more ballad-y ones so it's not exactly fuelling my inner madferit. But sinking a couple of beers tomorrow evening with the stereo up loud is already making me moist.

Second half was always the strongest going by the iTunes clips, and the full record confirms this. Andy Bell's tracks shine on this record. If he's been carrying tracks like that around for 10 years then what the hell has Noel been playing at over the last 10 years? The signs were there when he put A Quick Piss and left Thank You For The Good Times off Heathen Chemistry, and the less said about The Nature Of Reality the better, especially when you hear Andy claim that he gave Noel 5 songs for DOYS of which that was the worst.

Liam: fucking hell. The guy can write verses and melodies with the best of them. But he gets stuck there. Really, really frustrating. They've tarted up his songs on this record with some nice production, but the limitations stick out. Now Noel's fucked off he's got to step up to the plate. This is an acceptable start, but he's got to develop as a songwriter pretty damn soon.

Gem: Obviously the glue that binds them together. But if the next record consisted of an Andy with 6 songs, Liam with 4 and Gem with 2 I don't think you'd hear too many complaints.

Loving it so far...Liam is goin to murder these songs when they play live though

I feel a bit sorry for people listening to the album and thinking in the context of the Oasis power heirarchy and Liam's live voice.

That's not a cuss either.

I'll be to busy having it down the front to even care what he sounds like.

If I listen to Morning Son again Im gonna have to start singing along.

The office could be in for a real big treat here.

yup, totally.

have to wait until after work to hear this

Got Talk Sport on now.

Keys and Gray.

I'll be back for further hype at 1

For Anyone is lovely tbh. She Is Love was just lazy, acoustic wankery, but For Anyone is really nice and has an interesting melodic structure...and hand claps!!

WIN.

Downloading, nice ones. This and Polly Harvey are set to make my ears dizzy.

Really strong record. I'd rate this as the best beady eye record so far, but in conparison to oasis as better than the last 4

I preferred Beady's debut, Definitely Maybe.

Waa haa!

Just woke up and read the news that Radiohead's neew album is out in a couple of weeks and thought today couldn't possibly get any better and then this. Happy fucking days. Downloading the individual tracks version from the turtle. Going to watch an episode of The Wire and then return for some Beady Eye action.

hmmmmm huge stuff. just call me the rollinice

gonna take a walk into town and put this on the headphones, sun is out for BDI! woo!

when is the vinyl arriving? yeah - i was one of them mugs that spent 20 odd quid.
