(What's The Story) Morning Glory?

From: $13.79

This big rock candy mountain of an album justifies some if by no means all of the poses and pretentious statements made by Manchester's natural-born rock & roll deities. A dramatic attempt to rekindle the flames of the original British Invasion, Morning Glory rolls 30 years of Britpop tradition into one irresistible (if achingly self-conscious) whole. "Wonderwall" can be read as a Beatles tribute, "Don't Look Back in Anger" feels like a Mott The Hoople anthem and "She's Electric" and "Morning Glory" are chewy pop confections. --Jeff Bateman

One of the 90's top albums

Music, like movies, tends to go into a lot of phases with many people latching onto a certain genre or artist deeming them the saviors that will rid the taste left in our mouth of the predecessors. With the drugs and excess and...

The Classic Album of the 90's

Very few bands are able to create an album that defines a moment (the Britpop era) in the way that Oasis did with this 1995 near-masterpiece. While it may not be one of the greatest albums of the Rock era, it's hard to imagine how it could not be...

The last truly great rock album

Morning Glory is Oasis's best album, and one of my favorites. All the tracks are great, from Hello to Champagne Supernova. Every song is perfect Britpop, with Liam's bratty voice going perfectly with the rest of the band's instruments. The hits...

some rip offs, some unmemorable moments... some good moments too

Back in the day, Oasis wanted to be the next Beatles by attempting to write catchy, memorable songs. Sometimes it worked, but other times it clearly didn't. They certainly don't "sound" like the Beatles most of the time.

"Hello"-...

Class

A weirdly oldschool tenderly savagely brilliant compilation. Full of sound and fury, signifying much. Hard fast paced rock laced with the courtliness and poetical humility of a medieval troubador. Punk with roots. And it reaches down like the...

Oasis - Whether You Like The Gallager Brothers Or Not This Is A Great Album

Back in the mid 90's the music press (especially in Europe) hailed Oasis as the second coming of the Beatles. The band often treated their fans with contempt and both of the Gallagher brothers had egos that would consistently land them in trouble...
