Definitely Maybe

This says it all: https://youtu.be/UgSdj79-Bvs?si=a3JjZMJX21dOPUH7

Ugh. Why would this be on a list of albums you should hear before you die for any reason other than you might off yourself after listening to it? 1/5

Not a huge fan of this. Could never really put my finger on it but I didn’t love oasis when younger and still don’t. Not much else from me on it.

Hey, it's these guys again! Why do they sound like they are whining about absolutely everything? I get the feeling that if I give them one star again, I will hear from their mom about how I'm bullying them. It's like Dudley Dursley the Band. Oasis makes the Battle of Britpop very easy. Blur all the way.

Overrated, overblown, ego filled shite. It was football terrace chant shite when it came out, it remains shite now. In fact, I’d say it’s now like dogshit that’s been out in the sun for too long and has gone furry - it’s mouldy, pointless Dadrock for idiots who barely scrape two syllable words together. Needs to be consigned to the trash heap along with the idiotic brothers Gallagher.

Definitely not.

Boooring

Yuk

There is no disputing the enormous global success Oasis have and will continue to have. But, in my opinion there were better bands around doing “Britpop” in the 90’s - Blur, Supergrass and The Verve as examples. Some real anthems on this album and no doubt will get further historic success in 2025 for obvious reasons. However I cannot get excited listening to this album.

Another band that I just don't get. Live Forever is palatable, but the remaining songs are a sludge of washed out instrumentals and horrible vocals.

Oasis sucks and I’m starting to realize I really don’t like British pop

Hate these Manc pricks.

Overrated and headache inducing. I guess I value the Gallagher bros more as personas than I do as musicians. So many unbelievable quotes in the press. Loads of great tweets and interview clips. I thought that would translate to an enjoyable 90s rock album. Nope. Hopefully Maybe it gets better after this, but this one was packed with too many boring retreads of great British musical movements that came before, be it the Manchester sound, glam rock or the Beatles. Definitely Maybe some groups are better at being rock stars than they are at being bands.

Meh. 😒

Rubbish

Oasis is definitely not the desperate refresher implied by the band name. No no, this album is just a dusty, interminable journey through an every-direction-the-same desert.

Fucking terrible.

Ugh. A record that everyone I know loves and yet I find tedious and insipid. Does this mean I hate all my friends?

Another grunge rock bank from the 2000’s. Music ok.

1. ztar - 1 2. zhaker - 0 3. forever - 1 4. zky - 0 5. columbia - 1 6. zonic - 0 7. douun - 0 8. alcohol - 1 9. dinner - 0 10. zlide - 1.5 11. children - 1.5

I definitely maybe don't get Oasis. Never did. Not sure if I ever will. It still sounds just as generic as it did in 1994.

Didn't like this album when it came out in the '90s, and I really tried to give it a chance this time around, but unfortunately I still don't. I agree with others. A muddy mix. A poor pastiche of far better artists ideas, from David Bowie, The Rolling Stones, T. rex and The Beatles. The hooks aren't particularly fetching. One of the most overrated albums I have ever heard, from one of the most overrated bands I've ever heard.

I can't listen to Oasis. 1/5

First five songs sound exactly the same (and bad), so I didn't bother listening to the rest.

5 songs in and I don't need more. Milquetoast AF

Did I really have to this?

I’d rather listen to Bieber. I loath these wankers.

Definitely maybe? Definitely not! Leave this crap for the sheep.

Wow the end of Rock n Roll star is so annoying. First two tracks are not grabbing me. I’m finding the vocals grating. Fuck that was boring.

Apallingly boring. Cannot believe this was what people liked to listen to. No wonder Bill Clinton was president

Not my taste at all. The last song was the best because it featured more vocal than instrumental.

Very boring, by the numbers, rock record. I found the lead guitar extremely annoying. The only good thing to stand out was the hint of nostalgia it gave me for the 90s.

wouldve liked it more as a kid. honestly didnt enjoy anything past the first diddy.

I find Oasis really boring. I don’t particularly enjoy any of these songs or find them catchy. They aren’t upsetting or bad per se, just unintelligibly samey and dull.

I can't describe the hatred I feel for this basic drivel

Nicht mein Stil.... zu einfach

Definitely not. Derivative. Lumpen. Po-faced. A lot of what was wrong with music in the 1990s.

You aren’t the Beatles.

Oasis - Definitely Maybe 1. We are rocking out in the 90s for sure. This is fine. The ending is great, but the verses and chorus were quite mid imo. Saved by the last min but overall mid 3. Why does this remind me of that Coke song in the first verse? Anyway great guitar tone and the riff is nice. I’ve never cared for the vocals in Oasis. I find them too nasally and kinda annoying. But the music here is fine. 4. Baahhhhhhh the vocals are just not it. Again the music is fine. But I’m waiting for this to be over which is never a good sign. (From here on out if a song ain’t hitting by two min in I’m skipping to the next track. 5. This track has some teeth. First one I’d say I actually like. 6. Another good start here. Honestly I’d rather listen to Brian Jonestown Massacre, black angels, etc. This is a good track tho. Good harmony and the riff rides. 7. Yawn 8. Drums are at least banging but other wise skippable 9. I’m not finishing this shit. First DNF!

Please no more britpop, I can only take so much. Morning Glory is really all I need as far as Oasis goes, and even that I could take or leave.

Nah

Boring

Blumig-dröger Rock

Album #: 242 first impressions: were oasis pioneers of cursive singing? ("sun-she-ine," etc.) after listening through: I was folding laundry while listening to this and covered my speaker w/ a towel for a moment -- it was much easier to listen to and almost enjoyable like this. post-reading reviews/wiki: i guess everyone recognizes this is mid in at least one way but i'm not sure why that translates into them loving it? i guess you had to be there. recommended for: someone looking for the british answer to US grunge pop of the 90s? lovers of distortion and affected vocal stylings.

Definitely gar nicht.

I tried to listen to this with an open mind, as I’ve been a long time detractor of those cheeky manc chaps, however I hate this and everything Oasis have touched. I’m either not as open minded as I’d like to think, or I was right all along. The latter, I hope. The only positive things I can say about them is that they undeniably captured the spirit of a nation - fueled by that rarest of British feelings ‘hope’ and New Labour. They were also a bit better than the other pop bands of the time, that time being when the charts were filled with Spice Girls, Westlife, Boyzone etc. However this reminds me of the last mouthful of dregs in a warm pint of shite lager. I can only think of shite lager, football, and lads lads lads when hearing Oasis. I hate their legacy. I fucking hate Oasis. It baffles me that people think theres an argument comparing Oasis to Blur. Blur / Albarn projects are so far ahead of anything Oasis have done that its not a competiton. It’s Man City vs The Dog and Parrot. Fuck off.

What a "nothing" album. I think this album pissed me off at first, but then it just kept going and started not caring more than anything. The singer's voice is obnoxious, but it's often so drowned out in the mix that it's hard to, once again, care. Why is this album so long? Why is this artist so popular? Why do people think this and the Beatles are nearly equals?! Jesus, what a mess. At least it didn't have Wonderwall.

Aivan todella tylsä albumi! Ja mä ihan tykkään Oasiksesta. Tai nyt kyseenalaistan sen. Liian naiivinnokkelaa

Didn't much care for the previous album.

I still blame Oasis for bringing 'Wonderwall' into this world, but I'll try not to hold that against them for the duration of this album. I guess my first question is: does Oasis ever begin to not sound whiny? Like, does it take a few listens to 'get it?' Because so far the lead singer just sounds like he's obnoxious moaning about everything the entire time. I guess I do appreciate this album for helping me realize I'll never like Oasis.

Makes me feel bad about giving that blur album 1 star. This is so much worse. Why does the singer always sound like he's trying to shit out a brick? Last song was kind of ok, I guess.

Poorly recorded and songs me editing down

Hated it

I loathe oasis

Nope.

Every wanker in the UK in 1994: “oh my god I love overlong tedious songs with the worst lyrics you’ve ever heard sung in an annoying voice”

Never got into this band

Nope

when will this site finally give me something that’s actually good

Definitely not. Mediocre Beatles/T-Rex karaoke in a pub round the corner from Maine Road.

Couldn't get into it. Just insanely boring and uninteresting. All the songs sound the same.. guess Oasis isn't for me because I always found Wonderwall to be very boring as well. Blur wins. Actually Suede wins but they were too busy doing crack cocaine during the whole feud. Can't believe these guys used to be labeled as "the next Beatles".

Exhaustively boring. I don't know if it's the mixing or compression or what but I felt like I was like listening to this on a rotary phone. Blech.

Pretty droning and repetitive for a band that claimed to be bigger than the Beatles lmao I was just underwhelmed. How do all the tracks sound like the exact same song? All the instruments sound uninspired. The guitar work is lazy and lame; the lyrics don't help either. The vocalist can't seem to stop doing his teenage John Lennon impression for a single second. The way it's mixed doesn't appeal to me either; all the sounds muddle together in a bad way. Listening to the whole thing just felt like a chore. I can at least stand their best songs, but none of them were on this album anyway. One of the most monotonous albums I've had in a while. Again and again 90s music underwhelms me lmao. SO many people say it's such a great decade for music, and I've yet to see why

definitely maybe hate this !

I really don't want to be like this but... vocals are a make-or-break thing for me in a lot of these albums, and something about Gallagher's vocal style just drives me nuts in a bad way. Part of it is how much I loathe their song Wonderwall and how hearing his vocals reminds me of that song regardless of the rest of the band's contributions. But honestly, musically, I'm kinda shrugging through this album. It's not bad, but it's not a super-enjoyable listen for me, and the vocals just push it over the other side to "not something I want to listen to again."

Goddammit, not another one. I guess the question is, is this album worse than (What's the Story) Morning Glory? It doesn't have any songs as obnoxiously overplayed as Wonderwall or the other hits off that album, but I feel like outside of being driven into my brain over and over again by the dull trepanation blade that is commercial rock radio, the songwriting on that album is, overall, slightly better. Not Wonderwall, that song is like the Chernobyl of pop music, but outside of that, it strives for something better than the blandness that is this album. If you inspire hatred, at least you're inspiring an emotion.

Þetta varð fljótlega leiðigjarnt á sínum tíma. Það hefur ekkert breyst.

Meh

There's something to be said for music this unbashedly lacking in anything new or unique like this. Heres what it is: this sucks ass and i hate it

false

Oasis is terrible :(
