Riverman should be more or less inspired by Brian Protheroe Pinball song indeed. Let me the original cold and I find Riverman as an entry well. The saxophone solo that sounds twice, I like .. The chorus characterizes a well. Psychedelic Intro. Good 4/5 star.
In The Heat Of The Moment remember the title is always a bit of Asia's almost eponymous song. But I like the song but it is for me not a five Sterner, but cool thing. 4/5 star.
Girl With X-Ray Eyes-A psychedelic experiment that percussion reminds me of Oasis classics like Do not Look Back in Anger, but is difficult. The rest is a floating carpet of sound which also Part Of The Queue is not entirely dissimilar. But somehow always very trendy, yet like a Sixties thing right out of the hippie era. I do not know. Even 4/5 star.
Lock All The Doors My favorite track on the record, and he goes off. I like it totally. The rock n 'roll is hereby saved on this album. True power, great strength, the older Noel rocks here as the young without Noel Oasis is possible. I notice again here at the latest
The Bomb Of Chasing Yesterday! Full marks. 5/5 star.
The Dying Of The Light Here the melancholy is at home and she is beautiful. What thought-provoking. To find a song to dream and a further incentive, this plate well. 5/5 star.
The Right Stuff - the sound I like. But here's what I'm missing. You can tell that this song comes from the sessions with Anonymous Androgynous and I liked already the experiment with Shoot A Hole Into The Sun is not so, what was indeed a funny imitation of If I had a gun. Oh well .. The instrumentation I find quite ok, but singing is so lax somehow. Sounds like a bad B-side. Can not abgewinnen so much the. Revolution Song or Do The Damage as a regular album tracks have The Right Stuff can replace good. To this end, for all there are only (two and a half): 2,5 / 5 stars.
While The Song Remains The Same Taking time off the While it would be the first song on Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy - so the play has nothing to do here. Noel sings about his hometown. Here I can not decide if I want to give three or four stars, I give (three and a half): 3,5 /. 5
The Mexican's a cool piece of music. Actually some of T.Rex and also recalls BRMC how indeed could read. The Chief knows how to make good music. The album is very varied, what one notices here also again. 4/5 star.
You Know We Can not Go Back Is definitely quite good - I can not help it and some would call into question, but I would imagine the sound forth this song by Ryan Adams. The last current Adams' album where he would fit it. Inspired, he is probably not by him, I start from. 4/5 star.
The Ballad Of The Mighty I Yeah, I like this very much ballad. Johnny Marr has helped and certainly I have just about all Smiths songs in the collection, even if this is a little bit different here. But hey, I like it like. At first listen, about a month ago because I did not quite know whether the lights, but it is a beautiful piece of music, and is also, like most pieces here, also to settle at the top. I give you five. 5/5 star.
Bonus Tracks:
"Do The Damage" - I liked the same, when I heard it for the first time. Even the music video I like. The song is a gold coin. Too bad it could not be equal to a regular album track. Full size: 5/5 stars
"Revolution Song" - The play I always knew as Oasis demo raw version. The demo also had its appeal. This song is definitely one worth - four: 4/5 stars.
"Freaky Teeth" - If you have already seen live during the first tour. I mean is this: 4/5 stars.
"In The Heat Of ... (Toy Drum Remix) - At first I thought not. Cool, listen a bit in the background to Caribou per se but that did ran the longer the song, the more I thought - the dung would. he can save yourself because I know much better boredom pure, he prefers the original -.. see above 1.5 / 5 Stars..
All in all: The predecessor is better, but in my opinion no worse. Both works of NGHFB do not take a lot and have a similarly good quality. I liked on the High Flying Birds debut What a Life and Stop The Clocks is not quite as happy, What a Life to shares but then even more, here I like While The Song Remains The Same to also larger parts as The Right Stuff. Bottom line: class Tracks 4-5 stars, two, three average so it was on the previous album. The boring remix did not have to be.
Conclusion: Noel Is Still Rock n 'Roll and still on top, best band Oasis, Beady Eye Oasis a copy-flop. Let's see if brother Liam solo still creates a comeback in the stadiums, in the pubs, in the block of flats, or at least only in the coffee shop ().
