Everyone knows Oasis aren’t the most original band around, yet I’ve never been bothered too much by the fact. However the amount of songs on this new album that are strongly reminiscent of other songs and bands is astonishing. The Rolling Stones connection has been widely mentioned already but The Velvet Underground and The Stranglers also leap out as well and of course the obligatory Beatles/John Lennon connection.

I’ve not read any reviews of the album yet but it’ll probably get the usual best since Definitely Maybe/What’s The Story quotes that alway seem to accompany a new Oasis release. Personally I think their last album was a much more powerful release than this one. Time will tell.
