Oasis
Album Title: Standing on the Shoulders of Giants
Release Date: February 28, 2000, on Epic
What Can We Expect? Short, sharp shocks of songs: there are 10 tracks, but the album bearly reaches over 40 minutes, which may feel abbreviated to some fans. "They're more groove-based than song-based, and there's a lot more psychedelic effects on this record," notes Gallagher. "This album's been thought out, and it's more interesting to listen to. There's a bit more magic sprinkled on it." Oasis have also made some line-up changes during the recording: Former Heavy Stereo guitarist Gem replaces Bonehead, and at press time a bassist had yet to be announced to replace Paul McGuigan. They've also switched producers, replacing longtime collaborator Own Morris with Mark "Spike" Stent (U2, Massive Attack). "When you say [his name], people automatically assume it's going to be a dance record," says Gallagher, "which it isn't. It's more contemporary." And typically balls-out, opening with the instrumental "Fucking in the Bushes," which Gallagher swears is not a working title. "It makes since when you hear it. It's quite a hard-sounding song, but it's also quite funny." Other songs include likely first single "Go Let It Out" and a Liam Gallagher-penned tune, "Little James," which Noel discribes as "Beatlesque." What, a Beatle-reminiscent song issuing from Oasis? Wonders (and wonderwalls) never cease. [RD]
