Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Oasis have been accused of losing it and recovering it more times than any sane mind should rightfully remember, but whatever trajectory their controversial discography takes from here, Don’t Believe The Truth should come out looking like a rather proud success. Partly, it’s because Liam and Noel sound on such rude form: the younger, fronting with some of the old menace and successfully channelling his rather simplistic songwriting impulses on the lightly trippy, shaker-ridden "Guess God Thinks I’m Abel"; the elder playing some of his more devious tricks, imagining The Beatles’ Revolver played by a Mariachi band on "The Importance Of Being Idle", and doffing a cap to late-period Velvet Underground on "Mucky Fingers".

Partly, though, it’s because Oasis sound like they’re functioning less like a not-so-benevolent dictatorship and more like a real band again. With only five songs written by Noel, contributions from Liam, guitarist Gem Archer and bassist Andy Bell have space to spread their wings a little: in particular, Bell’s "Turn Up The Sun" – a gargantuan opener that sees Liam deliver one of his best opening lines to date ("I carry the madness/ Everywhere I go") – proves mighty testament to Oasis’ new democratic bent. --Louis Pattison

Album Description
Don't Believe The Truth is the sixth Oasis studio album – their first since the number one multi-million selling Heathen Chemistry, released in 2002. It includes the soon-to-be-classic single "Lyla". Noel Gallagher describes the track as "the Soundtrack of our Lives doing The Who on Skol in a psychedelic city in the sky (or something!)"

1.0 out of 5 stars Rubbish!!!!, 26 Feb 2006
With all that money and time on their hands this is the best that they could come up with? I would be embarrassed to perform this in front of another living human being. This should go down as the single worst rock album ever!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, 6 Jun 2005
Like one of the other reviewers said, there just isn't a bad song on this album. I've always been a fan of the band so I've bought and listened to all of the albums - Don't Believe the Truth really stands out for several reasons. It seems to be showing a real growth for the band - Andy Bell and Gem Archer are certainly assets, and Noel's relenquishing of control has allowed them to take a new direction *as a band*. Liam Gallagher's songwriting capabilities have increased tenfold from 'Little James' (SOTSOG). All in all you just get the feeling that they've really put a lot of effort into this album, and what's come out of it are some fantastic, beautiful songs. It's a far cry from the likes of Morning Glory and Giants, and a step up from Heathen Chemistry. And, as a standalone album, it's fantastic.

Personally, I think it's the best thing they've done since Definitely Maybe.

I'd reccomend the limited edition version with the extra DVD - it shows some great footage of the band in the studio, and you really get a sense of how hard they worked - it's not all drinking, drugs, and partying - Oasis have grown up.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst album I've ever heard., 24 Oct 2006
Thats a pretty shocking comment coming from someone up until the release of this album, Oasis was my favourite band.
What the hell are they doing on this though, trying to sound 1960s, they've completley lost their idenitity. The fact that Noel Gallaghar has selected "Lyla" for the Best of Release is even sadder, let alone written it.. Liams songs are horrible. All I can say is that I don't want to hear another love song with the same horrid two chords chiming over and over again "Songbird" "Love Like A Bomb" - the fact that the b side penned by Liam himself "Pass me down the wine" is not in here in favour of those really does question Noels sensibilities. The fact that people favour stupid "I'm in love with you woman" ditties over Liams severly bashed first song about something real and proper "his first born son" is just sad and makes me question if Oasis has any proper fans left like me anymore. Can I just state "THIS IS NOT A RETURN TO FORM" It sounds more like OASIS OUT OF JUICE.

What happened to the band that recorded "Definitley Maybe" "Morning Glory" "Be Here Now" "Standing on the shoulder of giants" even "Heathen Chemistry" was not a half bad album with songs like "The Hindu Times" "Little By Little" and "Stop Crying Your Heart Out"

After the lacking "Heathen Chemistry" I was expecting a return to the original Oasis. Nothing could be further from the TRUTH - Sing a sad song!
