This is a great, loud, catchy rock song. It has everything that is good about Oasis packed into three minutes of energetic guitar riffs and Liam Gallaghers trademark snarling vocals ! If it had been released in the mid nineties EVERYONE would've been 'mad fer it !', it is 2002 though and plenty of people will tell you Oasis are all over, don't believe them, music needs more bands like Oasis and less Gareth Gates/Will Young's right now, so do everyone a favour and buy this !

With a 10th Anniversary tour under their belts, Oasis release their first single written and recorded by the new Oasis line up.
The Hindu Times is a back to basics rock 'n' roll record, crunching guitars and snarling vocals wrapping around a simple, straightforward melodic hook. BUT, don't be fooled into thinking this is a return to the Definitely Maybe era - this is a slicker and more mature production than anything from the eponymous debut album, and some may argue, as a result it lacks the edge and charm of some of those tracks - indeed it pales into insignificance when compared to the likes of Live Forever or Slide Away and the lyrics lack any real originality or meaning "in and out my brain, running through my vein" isn't a Gallagher classic. However, it's still good, old fashioned feel good Rock'n'Roll song - stuff to sing along to in the pub - LOUDLY

Having heard the "Hindu Times" live on three occasions,and thought it was superb, I was even more delighted when I finally heard the studio version.
It has a feel of Kula Shaker, with a chorus that will have every Oasis fan totally intune with.
Without doubt their best single since Some Might Say, and surpasses "Who feels love" tenfold.
The song would have sat nicely in between Definitely Maybe and WTSMG, and if this is a sign of the quality of the new album, then I am getting in the queue now!
