AxlsMainMan Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Very tough choice, but I think Definitely Maybe is a touch better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdeyahlxp Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I say (What's the Story) Morning Glory. It has a way more polished sound, the songs are more iconic and the musicians have more experience. Thus I consider it Oasis' "Master of Puppets" (I would consider Definetly Maybe as Oasis' Ride the Lightning). Both classics, but one is just a tad better.

Strange Broue Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Definitely Maybe. More cohesive and i dig the more raw sound Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Definitely Maybe all day long but i will always love and adore Morning Glory because it was just a MASSIVE album of my key teenage years. And i do mean MASSIVE, there were like 6 or 7 singles on that fuckin' album, im sure of it, they were just EVERYWHERE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bono Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 I think Definitly Maybe is slghtly better overall but Morning Glory has the better singles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 DM is the classic but I listen to Morning Glory more. Morning Glory just has more dimensions to it with Wonderwall, Dont look Back in Anger, Champagne Supernova, Cast No Shadow. DM has more rock n roll spirit.

J Dog Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Both are pretty great albums. If I had to pick one to listen to right now, I'd probably take Morning Glory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luciusfunk Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 I went with Morning Glory, but Definitely Maybe isn't far behind. Morning Glory just edges Definitely Maybe for me because MG was the first Oasis album I heard and I listened to it so many times before I even heard another album from them.

SunnyDRE Posted June 8, 2015 Share Posted June 8, 2015 Live Forever is better then anything on Morning Glory, but the later is the better of the two albums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 DM is an indie rock album but MG is more of a full on rock album. I listen to Be Here Now and Heathen Chemistry and Don't Believe the Truth more than DM which is kind of about a certain lifestyle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR DOOM Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I always hated Oasis in a way that I think is similar to Len's hatred of "metallers" I've mellowed out towards them a lot these days, but I think you have to be British to "get" them.

wasted Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 You've got to feel the lineage from The Beatles, to The Smiths, Stone Roses. So you had those two last bands and then GNR, then Oasis. Instead of of those indie bands or shoe gazing finally a band that had more of a Stones type swagger. But maybe you need rain and football to get it.Lately, did you ever feel the pain?In the morning rain as it soaks you to the bone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 All that fuckin' retro 'they're like The Beatles, they're like The Stones, they're like The Pistols' stuff is just like...journalists at the height of their fame trying to make sense of why their music was so appealling, when i used to listen to em when they first came out i didn't feel like i was listening to The Beatles or The Pistols (heaven forbid!). I just took em as a bunch of Manc's with really good tunes that dressed cool.Big bands suffer from this i think, we dissect them and compartmentalise them and then have a go at em for it.

I heard the Smiths, really the most, that indie production, the Beatles tune wise, and Roses but rock n roll. It's all their. If not Slade and Bolan. But I didn't care. Later albums started to be obvious. Some of it is Lennon. But actually heathan and don't believe were better because it wasn't as obvious. Influences aren't a downer to me. It's not a conspiracy but it's there. You can feel the Smiths and Inspiral carpets and the fall coming though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) LOVE The Smiths, absolutely flawless discography, always thought Inspirals were a load of bollocks and The Fall are great. In the second song off their debut album Mark E Smith goes 'WE ARE THE FALL, WE'RE NORTHERN WHITE CRAP THAT TALKS BACK, WE ARE NOT BLACK...AT ALL'. I fell in love right there. Hows that for a statement of intent eh? Edited June 9, 2015 by Len B'stard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I got into to the fall through that this is the winter of discontent. I know they have a record every year. But whether I like them or not I hear the Smiths on DM. Noel will say Johnny Marr and that chick from the Stone Roses plus the Beatles, Weller, Slade. Slade production wise is obvious. I'm not saying they thought about it. I did I robot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 The Smiths on DM? How so? (not being funny, genuinely curious). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 The jangle. Without out being too technical. A real rock n roll jangle from the smiths, to Roses to Oasis. Is it post punk vibe I don't know, to me it just sounds so indie. The guitars. Liam gives it some attitude. On Morning Glory they took on some more stomp glam and classic rock. I like Be Here Now because it's OTT. All that indie thing is gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
