I once heard an interview where Noel Gallagher proclaimed that Oasis, in his opinion, were in the top 3 of bands of all time. On this, and several other albums worth of evidence, it is quite clear that they aren't anywhere near the top 3 of Manchester bands! to say this album is a bit 'samey' is a 'massive' understatement! I was going to re-name them status quoasis, but that would be a great insult to status quo! I would advise anyone to borrow this album before buying, I wish I had, i'd be £8.99 better off now!!

Extremely catchy as an instrumental, it is a rousing stadium pleasing song that in itself makes this CD as much a part of Viva La Vida as the original CD was. Glass Of Water and Rainy Day are also fantastic uplifting songs - well written and anthemic. And Prospekt's ... Read More:

Sorry for this short and lazy review - which is no reflection of my feelings for this album. Oracular Spectacular is superb, MGMT is superb. And going for a bargain price at the time of writing too!
