Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Though Oasis are forever fated to live in the shadow of their initial success, they remain capable of producing exciting and touching music, and Dig out Your Soul continues the upswing in their fortunes sparked by 2005's Don't Believe the Truth. Unashamedly an album of two halves, the first part is heavily loaded with Noel Gallagher's tunes, including the pounding single "The Shock of the Lightning", a taut and pacy rocker nearer to the light touch of the Smiths' "The Queen Is Dead" than their usual Pistols-inspired power plod. The rocking "Bag It Up" shares nothing but a title with Geri Halliwell's already forgotten 2000 hit, while "Waiting for the Rapture" takes Lennon's harrowing "Cold Turkey" as a template, with some success. Liam's crude, sparky "Ain't Got Nothin'" holds up his side and his sprawling ballad (the only such effort here) "I'm Outta Time" adds another anthem to their repertoire. Even Gem Archer's "To Be Where There's Life", a bracing slice of undercooked psychedelia, is naggingly catchy. Only Noel's "(Get off Your) High Horse Lady", a pointless rewrite of Tommy Tucker's mod-era favourite "Hi Heel Sneakers" and Andy Bell's ungainly "The Nature of Reality" are downright inessential. Those missteps aside, it's hard to imagine anyone feeling shortchanged by Dig out Your Soul. --Steve Jelbert

CD Description
For their seventh studio album, Brit-pop stalwarts and general rock 'n' roll survivors Oasis have stuck mostly to theirguns, releasing a collection of bracing, swaggering rock songs with the odd moment of bluster throw into the mix. Though the hallmarks of the Oasis sound remain (Beatles-influenced pop with a classic rock edge), 'Dig Out Your Soul' is notable for the more riff-based songwriting style and the mix ofauthors. Vocalist Liam Gallagher contributes three songs, while his brother and guitarist Noel contributes the majority. Features the single 'The Shock Of The Lightning'.

2.0 out of 5 stars It's the tunes that needed digging out..., 30 Nov 2008
After the undoubted return to form that was Don't Believe The Truth, Oasis have taken a step backwards here. What made DBTT such a good record was that Noel had rediscovered his ability to make catchy pop songs and was rewarded with a couple of number one hits. The problem here is that, quite simply, there aren't any good tunes. Whereas Oasis are often criticised for being too derivative - and with good reason in some instances: Shakermaker/Coca-Cola song - here they are actually resorting to ripping off their own back catalogue. Shock Of The Lightning sounds like Rock 'N' Roll Star; I'm Outta Time is just Little James with better lyrics (and a frankly awful video). The terrible, whining singing on Get Off Your High Horse is awkward to listen to. The cringeworthy, brainwashed, disciple-like worship from Gem Archer on the DVD (does he ever say anything which doesn't include effusively praising the Gallagher brothers? Perhaps it's not in the contract...) indicative of a band so disconnected from the real world that it doesn't matter if what they produce is good or bad anymore; it's always going to be the greatest thing since (in their own minds) Sergeant Pepper.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dig this...!, 2 Oct 2008
By mystic fred (prog heaven) - See all my reviews
  
The long-awaited 2008 album release from Oasis is here at last, and following the interviews, the hype and the freebies as expected the album is another solid gold classic from the band, who said they are back on form - they never lost their form, and is very evident from this collection of fine songs. One of the boys described the album not so much a collection of songs but grooves, call them what you will, all the songs are good and will hit the spot with Oasis fans and sound great live.

Many Oasis trademarks are here, the Beatles influences are very evident on one or two of the tracks, which is not a criticism just an observation - for a Beatles fan of 46 years I notice these things, like I say not a criticism, I love to hear those on here.

"Bag it Up" is a stomper, one of the tracks tabbed on the NME freebie I struggled a bit with - its secrets revealed at last; "The Turning" - my favourite track on the album, solid drums introducing the verse and a great catchy chorus; "Waiting for the Rapture" - a heavy track with its stomping beat and "Cold Turkey" style riff, the next track "The Shock of the Lightning" - a typically unmistakeable Oasis song made a great first single; "I'm Outta Time" is a beautiful soft ballad with great lyrics, I detect a mellotron here, which sounds much more evident later on the album, pleased to hear it!; "Get off your High Horse Lady" has a "Rocky Raccoon" style shuffle, in "Falling Down" the mellotron is very evident and blends in well with the dramatic style of the song; "To Be Where There's Life" is an amazing track, and has obvious Beatle influences, from the swirling sitar to the Macca "Rain" style bass line; "Ain't Got Nothin'" has a strong waltzy rhythm, with heavily laden guitars and drums; "In the Nature of Reality" is very atmospheric, another catchy stomper with heavy fuzz guitars, feedback and thundering drums; the last song "Soldier On" has an appropriate plodding beat and bass line with a beautifully deep lyric, a suitably atmospheric harmonica sound and a shimmering keyboard effect - we all soldier on one way or another, I hope Oasis soldier on and continue producing fine albums like this for many years to come - well done, guys, another classic!

The sound quality listening from MySpace of these tracks is not bad at all, though I do look forward to hearing the album on vinyl...when it arrives (-:

5.0 out of 5 stars A distinguished classic, 3 Oct 2008
By Mr. D. C. Raybould (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Yes there are Beatles references, as there are influences from the doors, rolling stones, stone roses and pink floyd. There aren't any periods of rapping, harp solos, country and western, heavy metal or gospel choirs. The band are Oasis. Their line up is simple - vocals, two guitars, bass and drums. And guess what? You get an album consisting of vocals, guitars, bass and drums. How shocking!!!!
Oasis fans will love this album. It is different, it is experimental and it is fresh sounding. Each track has something to offer. It will probably lead to divisions in opinion because I think everyone is going to have different favourite songs here (for the record mine is Soldier on, but that might just be because it was the last track I listened to). There will innevitably be criticisms of the album because too many people seem to have too much time to spend criticising Oasis. The criticisms are not worth listening to because I think they have either been made without actually listening to the album, or through people having already made their mind up before listening to it.
If you're a fan who have enjoyed listening to Oasis throughout the years then you will love this album and treasure it alongside your favourite Oasis material. If you have never liked Oasis or have spent the last 10 years saying "they should have stopped after what's the story morning glory" then please don't waste your time buying it because I repeat there are no harp solos, gospel choirs or rappers on this album so buzz off and listen to something else!!!!!
