Editorial Review:

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




Rating: - D'yer wanna buy a lawnmower?
I wanted to like "Dig Out Your Soul", after spending fourteen squid on the limited edition. Thankfully, it was worth the money.

Dig Out Your Soul starts off well with Bag It Up and you can hear straight away that a lot of money and effort's gone into the production. In fact I'd go as far as to say the production is miles better than on any of their previous records.

So, listening to first track 'Bag It Up' sets the expectation bar fairly high. It's proper non-nonsense ... Read More

Rating: - Another mediocre album
I always look forward in anticipation to the next oasis album, and was particularly hoping that the band would 'Kick on' and improve further on their last offering "Dont believe the Truth". Unfortunately, after having listened to this a few times, this album to me is a step back towards mediocrity. Its almost as if theyve looked at their watches and thought "Its 3 years since our last,time to cobble together another"!!

There are a few songs of above average quality, but nothing fresh ... Read More

Rating: - What a bore!
How are they still in the limelight? They had 2 amazing albums many, many moons ago but that is all they have ever done!

Rating: - Top Form
After listening to this many times, this is the sound of a band that as they mature are just getting better and better,they have definetely found their groove. I enjoyed the last 2 albums, Heathen Chemistry and Dont believe the truth but I like this more as I think its a grower which is always a good sign.
Stand out tunes are Noel`s "the turning", "falling down","get off your high horse",but my favourite song is Liam`s "I`m outta time", ok it sounds like John Lennon, but I think the great man ... Read More

Rating: - Very poor by Oasis standards
Will probably get shot down in flames for saying this... But Oasis seem to have had their day and by their standards this album is proof of that!

Not to say that it is a bad album, as probably any other band would give thier right arm to produce an album like this.... but for Oasis, its far from their best album!

One or two good songs on it, but its is missing that special something ie a "Live Forever", "Wonderwall", "Champagne Supernova", "Stand By Me", "Waterver", "Gas Panic" ... Read More
