28/02/2000 | Happy Release Day 2000 | OASIS - Standing on the Shoulder of Giants Big Brother #oasis #bigbrotherrecords @oasis @bigbrother_records Allmusic: „Yet for all of its heavy psychedelic influence, Standing on the Shoulder of Giants is really a self-consciously mature departure from the group's usual ebullience, a deliberately mellow, midtempo album spiked with hints of big beat and electronica to prove that they're with it.“ LA Times: „It's all defiantly derivative of the band's core '60s influences but has enough of an edge to seem contemporary.“ Q: „Perhaps we have no right in this day and age to expect the fourth album from a major group to be a work of genius. Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants is not that, but it is an effective, modern psychedelic record that has dumped the bombast of yore and replaced it, for the most part, with some real emotion: witness Gas Panic's lyrical intimacy, for one.“ „Oasis are still British rock'n'roll's brightest hope. Maybe now more than ever.“ Rolling Stone: „Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, the fourth studio album by Brit pop's most celebrated revival band, puts Oasis back in the passing lane. Sonically, Giants is easily their boldest work…“ „But if we must endure vague platitudes shouted from the rooftop, let them all sound this gloriously drunk with belligerence.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cah3QrtslkC/?utm_medium=tumblr
