Oasis

Be Here Now

The high note of a musical trilogy...

Review Score:

(10/10)
It's a hell of a bold statement for unofficial leader, and songwriter Noel Gallagher to say that "This is the end of a musical trilogy" since Oasis has only produced three albums. But insert cd press play, and you wish a bit it still went on...
Be Here Now, provisionaly titled is an aural version of a big buffet - that is, it is packed chock-a-block with delights, beauties, gems, such works of genius that you can't help not having more. With the looming plane announcing the start of a 75 minute + musical epic, you know you are on for a treat.
It is hard not to be caught on by the affectious, sometimes loud, sometimes anthemic, but generally pleasurely high magic that Brother Noel creates. Combined with little Brother Liam with vocals, life is given to tunes which define white boy rock, adds another dimension to it, and creates a new genre, called "Oasis".
Highlights are undefined, as the whole cd is one highlight in itself. It is a bit sad to see Oasis heading for a new type of sound, but sit back, and enjoy. You will enjoy for sure.
