She seems to play the scissors a lot. On one or two tracks, particularly the tracks she does with Grimm Grimm, you can actually hear them. Will probably look out Noel's album as it's definitely a bit different, but I can happily avoid Liam's by-the-numbers rubbish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Must admit to massive relief that it is going down well. Far too much said that this album was going to be marmite. On a seperate note I heard i hope I think I know yesterday and it brought it flooding back how fucking good that song is. I love Oasis man 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 . Dead in the water is by far the standout for me. Nice acoustic ballad and sounds more like his earlier work. Agree with that, it’s the best song on the album by a distance. How typical of Noel that it’s tucked away as a bonus. He did much the same thing with ‘Do the Damage’ on the last one. On first listen I’m underwhelmed. Maybe it’s a grower. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Raccoon Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Really enjoying the new album, it's a bit different but that's not always a bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jude Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Really like it. Dead in the Water is brilliant but doesn't really fit in as part of the album, I get why it's a bonus track.

AberdeenHibee Posted November 27, 2017 Author Share Posted November 27, 2017 Its decent, but I'm not blown away by it. I can see what he is trying to do and why he really enjoyed doing this album, but its probably too much of a departure from the NG I know and love! Chasing Yesterday had some belters like Lock All The Doors, In The Heat Of The Moment, Do The Damage, The Dying Light and Ballad of the Mighty I...all were absolute tunes which I could happily listen to over and over...there isn't a song on this album that has hooked me...yet!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieT1314 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I think it's much better than chasing yesterday, but not as good as his first album. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to hazard a guess and say Interpol weren't even remotely in his mind when he recorded this record. He wears his influences on his sleeve, but those influences sound to me more like the new romantic era, New Order and early sixties pop. Which, I daresay, is the same kind of influence that Interpol works from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy Mountain and She Taught Me How to Fly both hooked me as soon as I heard them. Album itself is a bit of a mixed bag though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gianfranco Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I've only gave it two listens and I quite like it. I don't know the name of the songs as I was driving at the time but there's one that's background music it class - a mix of age of consent by new order and sometimes by Gerry Cinnamon and another that was Beatles esc. A grower I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Can definitely hear a lot of New Order in there which is never a bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 It's the furthest from Oasis that you could possibly get so I understand why reaction has been mixed. Also don't understand the desperation on social media to compare this with As you were. Two massively different albums. Lovely to listen too and a really nice change. I'm glad the acoustic ballad formula has largely been ditched (although Dead in the Water is a very nice song). Just hope it can be pulled off live, as I'm sure I read that the drums and bass etc weren't done by the band members on the album? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Noel Gallagher has now been the primary songwriter on ten UK studio albums. Ten number ones. That can’t have been done before surely? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
