    Believe the truth, Oasis delivers very good album!

    By Charles  Jun 1, 2005 | 2 out of 2 found this Don't Believe the Truth review helpful

    Pros: Great songs, Noel's lyrics, different sounds.

    Cons: Too short.

    Don’t Believe the Truth is a very good album from start to finish. I have always reserved 5 stars out of 5 for Oasis’ first two albums, so I would give Don’t Believe the Truth 4 out of 5. Whereas on the last two CDs (Standing on the Shoulder of Gi...ants & Heathen Chemistry) Oasis didn’t really deviate from their typical sounds, this new CD offers some tracks that go against previous offerings from the band. “The Importance of Being Idle,” “Mucky Fingers,” and “Part of the Queue” can be identified as great non-sounding Oasis tunes. Is it coincidence maybe that those three were written and sung by Noel Gallagher, who’s attempting to broaden his own musical repertoire? These three tracks contain better lyrics by Noel than some of those since 1997. Brother Liam however, sticks to what made Oasis great in the 1990’s with very good tunes like “Love Like A Bomb” and “Guess God Thinks I’m Abel.” “The Meaning of Soul” is an okay song, but I typically have been skipping it, the only one on the CD for that matter. “Love Like a Bomb” and guitarist Gem’s “A Bell Will Ring” have a definite mid-60’s Beatles feel to them, which is totally fine by me. Bassist Andy Bell offers the opener “Turn up the Sun” and “Keep the Dream Alive,” which are both excellent tracks which should be even better live and in person. The first single “Lyla,” is also worth mentioning as a good listen, but definitely not the best on the LP. I would have to say that my favorite tracks on Don’t Believe the Truth are “The Importance of Being Idle,” “Mucky Fingers,” “Part of the Queue,” “Love Like a Bomb” and “Keep the Dream Alive.” Diehard Oasis fans will ultimately love this album, while the average fan will find some attractive tunes on this disc if they take the time to listen. I for one like the direction that Oasis is going, and I’m already imagining what the next LP will sound like. All in all, Don’t Believe the Truth is a must for your music collection. Read more Less

    By mr  Sep 23, 2005

    Pros: fresh tunes from oasis

    Cons: none

    I think they're trying to put on new elements to their songs...
    It sounds different from their previous albums, but still rocks...
    Love turn up the sun, importance of being idle

    Wow

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 22, 2005

    Pros: resurrected from the dead

    Cons: none

    very surprising album from the Gallagher brothers. they decided to cut the fat, try new things (mucky fingers sounds like the velvet underground!) and it worked. the best songs on the albums are not written by noel but by liam, who happens to be a gr...eat songwriter and the producer kept a clean production throughout the record. it sounds like good rock n roll again Read more Less

    Oasis is a Must have

    By Alicia  Jun 16, 2005

    Pros: Well worth the wait.

    Cons: A little different then previous albums

    Oasis has delivered yet another hit record. With Noel's amazing lyrics and Liams profound voice, this record is a must have. Though the sound is a little different from some of their previous ones, it is a good change.

    Diferente produccion

    By Luis  Jun 5, 2005

    Pros: Buenas letras

    Cons: nueva propuesta

    Hay tracks que sobresalen y en el vaiven o ir y venir del sonido me trae conceptualmente los recuerdos de un what the story morning glory donde se alternaban temas mas fuertes (Lyla) y otros mas acousticos como let there be love que deberia ser uno d...e los singles .. ojala lo sea y no permanezca en el album asi como lo fue champagne supernova ... (ambos ultimos temas) y que en realidad es lo que a muchos seguidores les encanta .."lo melancólico de las melodías" interesante es "part of the queue" donde buscan probar algo diferente.... Keeop the dreams alive ... muy bueno tambien Read more Less
