Nah, The Hindu Times for one smokes anything on Shoulder. Go Let It Out is the only song I’d save off it and that’s pretty much a worse retread of Roll With It which was always their worst early period single. Also that tour was the worst I saw them live too, for a band that was always better live they were dogshit on the shoulder tour. Don’t Believe The Truth is probably my favourite late period oasis album and The Importance of Being Idle is probably my favourite late period oasis song.

I agree with you about DBTT. The only time I got to see them was the SOTSOG tour and it was amazing, one of the first gigs I ever went to.

Yeah one of my first too at Leeds Festival. The UK tour was notoriously shit for that one. Noel had walked out of the European leg after Liam had questioned his daughters parentage. He came bsck for the UK gigs but atmosphere between them was so shitty on stage that it was never going to be a good gig. I saw them in Manchester on the tours for all the following 3 albums and they were epic, much better!

Just judging by @Joe Mac's posts, Oasis fans seem to hate Oasis more than Weezer fans hate Weezer 😮

Standing on the Shoulder of Giants is just a terrible album. It has no saving grace, if it didn’t have oasis’ name in it the thing wouldn’t have sold a copy. Noel has since admitted that he shouldn’t have made it, was suffering from writers block and had no material that he rated. Went into studio because it had been 3 years since the last one and the label and band were on his back to go into studio and then on tour. He wishes he’d waited for the songs to start coming to him again rather than forcing it. Also Liam’s songwriting debut whilst kinda sweet was shocking, even by oasis standards the lyrics were laughable.

I've never really gotten into Oasis, nothing against them but I have a feeling I wouldn't really be able to tell good Oasis from bad Oasis 😕

And that’s fine, they’re not for everyone and I completely see where some of the criticisms are coming from, even if I don’t agree with them. Their debut for me is their only classic album, I listen to it and it makes me feel more confident, stand taller and walk with a bit of swagger. It has something intangible. It also helps that it’s the album that got me into music as a fan in my own right. The follow up is a good album with great singles. Beyond that they were variously overblown coke heads, forcing an album without any songs and finally a decent bog standard pub rock band with the odd single that hinted at better things in the past and a fantastic live show.
 
Oh yeah Wilco... I’ve been reevaluating their albums over the past few months because they became one of my son’s favorites bands.

Ooh this should be a fun one. I'm all for not even counting Yellow Submarine, it's an EP at best, and even if you count it based on the actual Beatles material, it still comes in dead last for me. Two of the only songs worth hearing can be found on much better albums and of the songs that are exclusive to the album, only "Hey Bulldog" is worth saving to me.

Nice to see a fellow fan of The Choir. For me, Kangaroo is one of the best albums of the 80s, Christian or otherwise, especially the stretch from Consider to Sad Face. Circle Slide and Wide-Eyed Wonder are almost as good. I have most of their other albums, but haven’t spent enough time with them to have an opinion.

I will post my rankings for one of the most controversial Christian bands of their time...

Vengeance (Rising)
1. Human Sacrifice
2. Once Dead
3. Destruction Comes
4. Released Upon the Earth
