New Oasis Demos Suggest They've Been Listening To The Beatles

ARTIST: Oasis
TITLES: "Nothing On Me," "I Wanna Live A Dream," "Stop The Clocks"
WEB DEBUT: May 6, 2008




ONE-LISTEN VERDICT: Wow, Oasis are seriously changing up the game on our asses. You'd think this was the Dukes Of Stratosphear or something, the way they've suddenly started taking on Beatle-isms! "Nothing On Me" mixes brash guitars and snide, Lennon-esque vocals from Liam Gallagher that plead for "truth." "I Wanna Live A Dream" flows from wan acoustic strumming with Noel Gallagher's blank vocals into a stomping, psychedelic coda familiar to fans of homages to "I Am The Walrus." "Stomp The Clocks" also flows from wan acoustic strumming topped by Noel Gallagher's blank vocals into a stomping, but the volume takes a lot longer to rise, and when the drums suddenly crash in, followed by a loud guitar solo, it's really more of a classic Radiohead-type of thing. I guess that's progress?
