Noel Gallagher is one of the best to ever grace the music world. His words hold importance in his field. The Oasis member recently spoke on what is his favourite album. According to the information shared by Noel Gallagher in a MOJO magazine interview, 1994 album, ‘Definitely Maybe’ was “the last great punk album”.
These comments may spark a debate about the Sex Pistols‘ only album, ‘Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols’. The musical legend has his own take on the entire comparison. He thinks that the Sex Pistols album and ‘Never Mind The Bollocks’ are quite similar on different levels.
Definitely Maybe was the last great punk album in many respects. We were a punk band with Beatles melodies. We had no effects, barely any equipment, just loads of attitude, 12 cans of Red Stripe and ambition.
If you listen to that and ‘Never Mind The Bollocks’, they’re quite similar. That album was about the angst of being a teenager in 1977. Fast forward to 1994 and ‘Definitely Maybe’ is about the glory of being a teenager.
It’s being down the park with a ghetto blaster distilled. It’s no coincidence that it’s lasted this long. Maybe there have been technically better or bigger records since, but that album is the real fucking deal. There’s no bullshit on it. It’s an honest snapshot of working-class lads trying to make it.
According to NME, Oasis shared a new lyric video for their classic track ‘Acquiesce’ last week and will appear on the 25th anniversary reissue of the Manchester band’s 1998 B-sides collection ‘The Masterplan’, which is due for release in various new formats on November 3. The official song ‘Acquiesce’ will have archive of Oasis’ performance with 90’s imagery.
‘The Masterplan’ when released in 1998 featured singles from Oasis’ first three albums, ‘Definitely Maybe’ (1994), ‘(What’s The Story) Morning Glory?’ (1995), and ‘Be Here Now’ (1997), and was at number two in the UK official album chart and sold nearly One Hundred Twenty Two Thousand in the release’s first week. It has sold over three million copies until now.
