Adams Is An Oasis In A Musical Desert

2 comments



















But he may still be overshadowed by the more ballyhooed act for which he opens

Based on musical accomplishment alone, Ryan Adams should be headlining a bill with Oasis on Saturday night at the Pearl. But alas, the bigger egos — and bigger record companies — appear to have won out.

Undertaking its first U.S. tour in three years, Oasis, anchored by the cantankerous Gallagher brothers (Noel and Liam), comes to Las Vegas to support the band’s seventh studio effort, “Stop the Clocks.” Apparently, the British band, according to a news release promoting the show, has reinvented itself as a bunch of “indie rockers,” with a set of “hauntingly familiar” songs.

Oasis, it must be noted, is as indie as Britney Spears, but promoters deliver on the second count, and it’s because the band’s new record fits nicely among its aggressively mediocre output.

Don’t get us wrong. Oasis was great in 1994, when “Definitely Maybe” became the fastest-selling debut album in British history. Serious nods to hits “Supersonic” and “Live Forever.”

A year later Oasis was even better, releasing the classic “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” The Gallagher brothers, fueled by drink and drug, were inescapable. MTV even needed subtitles to keep up. “Wonderwall” and “Champagne Supernova” were everywhere.

With Axl Rose off working on something called “Chinese Democracy,” the brash, snobbish embrace of rock ’n’ roll decadence was just the right medicine to get us over a bad grunge hangover.

But then came the talk about being bigger than the Beatles. And for all the talk, what did we get? — the wholly forgettable “Be Here Now,” in itself a reference to John Lennon’s quip about the philosophy of rock ’n’ roll. The Gallaghers spent the subsequent years churning out three generic albums and a live record.

Nevertheless, it’s hard to beat Oasis when it comes to solid British rock. Here’s to hoping for the classics.

Around the time Oasis’ star was fading, Ryan Adams, leading the alt-country outfit Whiskeytown, was taking off. When his band called it quits, the prolific Adams embarked on a solo career, releasing an album a year since his 2000 debut, “Heartbreaker,” including three in 2005.

To be sure, it wasn’t all good — far from it. But Adams just couldn’t stop himself. Take, for instance, last year’s “Easy Tiger,” among the better efforts. Adams, with some assistance, whittled more than 100 songs down to the 13 that made the final cut. The praise was steady and it clearly went to the songwriter’s head. While recovering from oral surgery and a broken heart, Adams (living in the Chelsea Hotel, of course) covered the Strokes’ debut, “Is This It,” on mandolin and banjo. Come on.

Stunts like that prompted former Replacements frontman Paul Westerberg to suggest in a 2003 interview that it might do Adams some good to get his teeth kicked in. Bruised, Adams told Rolling Stone recently that he “can’t listen to (Westerberg’s) music again, ever.” Come on.

Later, Adams reportedly went through therapy to get over antagonistic fans who would come to his shows and shout Bryan Adams song requests. “Summer of ’69!” The shows were notoriously erratic. Consider a 2003 gig in Minneapolis (Westerberg’s hometown, by the way), where a drunk and rambling Adams played several songs twice, allegedly excused himself from the stage to puke and continuously complained about the bad sound system. (A Google search for “Ryan Adams” and “tantrums” gets 16,900 hits.)

Last year Adams, on a steady diet of alcohol and speedballs, hit rock bottom. He quit cold turkey and sobriety seems to have served him well. “Cardinology,” Adams’ new record with his band the Cardinals, is truly a great album, a testament to the power of picking your spots instead of releasing the floodgates.

With just one real rocker on the roster, “Magick,” the record is a low-key, largely acoustic, country-rock affair, chock full of Grateful Dead and pedal steel. It’s just the type of music that pops in a small venue such as the Pearl.

Adams has summed up his influences like this: “Growing up, I had a Grateful Dead Steal Your Face sticker on my skateboard next to a pentagram logo and a Danzig sticker. I couldn’t differentiate.”

Here’s to hoping the therapy holds and that all of that shines through Saturday.

If you’re lucky, Adams might even play his acoustic cover of Oasis’ “Wonderwall.” That one earned him a Grammy nomination.

Oasis In Oakland Concert Review

2 comments










Many have wondered why Oasis, one of the most popular live acts in its native U.K., isn’t a bigger draw on this side of the Atlantic Ocean.

It’s a good question, given how consistently great the Britpop band’s albums have been over the last 15 years, and one that will probably be debated as long as the highly volatile group sticks together.

The basis for a solid hypothesis, however, could be readily found during the Manchester troupe’s gig on Wednesday night at the Oracle Arena in Oakland. The 100-minute set was low on energy, personality, theatrics and razzle-dazzle, all of which usually goes over like gangbusters with American audiences.

As with past Bay Area outings, Oasis just showed up, plugged in and performed the songs in a straight-forward, straight-ahead manner. That’s just how the band does it – or, maybe, that’s just how the musicians do it on this side of the pond.

Rick Allen, a longtime Oasis fan from the U.K. that is now living in San Francisco, was at the Oakland show and was shocked at what he saw.

“If they’d come out onstage like this in England, with this lack of energy, they’d get booed off the stage after two songs,” he said.

To that point, the 6,000-or-so fans in attendance – a less than half-full house - should feel grateful that they weren’t watching the concert in England. For if the band had been booed off the stage after two songs, listeners would have missed 19 other tunes, many of which rank among the best pop-rock numbers in recent history.

The set list was terrific, a proper sampling of the many wonders found on the band’s seven studio albums. The group – led by the brothers Gallagher, vocalist Liam and guitarist-vocalist Noel – paid particular attention to its most recent offering, “Dig Out Your Soul,” but also played most of the old hits.

The songs are so well-written, full of anthemic sing-along choruses, and feature so many wickedly slick guitar parts that they more than compensate for any performance issues. Indeed, it was hard to worry about a lack of energy from the band when one was singing along, at top volume, to such smashes as “Rock ‘N’ Roll Star,” “The Importance of Being Idle” and “Slide Away.”

The players did seem a bit more motivated toward the end of the night, closing up the main set with a fiery run through “Wonderwall” and “Supersonic” then returning for a four-tune encore that included a psychedelic cover of the Beatles’ “I am the Walrus.”

In all, it was a much better offering than what the fans saw immediately prior with Ryan Adams and the Cardinals. The hipster alt-country band leader, a true critics’ favorite, set the table for Oasis and did even less than the headliner to connect with the crowd.

Each person has his or her own list of the most-overrated performers in the business, and Adams most definitely belongs on mine.

Oasis Mouthpiece Talks Fitness, French Fries And Free Music

1 comment



















Even his combative brother Liam knows you don't start a scrap that you can't finish with the pugnacious Noel Gallagher.

Especially now, when the Oasis leader — thanks to a strict workout regimen that incorporates boxing — is in his slimmest, trimmest fighting form in years. He's so fit at 41, in fact, that he just foiled a crime in his native London by confronting two hoods attempting to steal a former Bond girl's purebred dog. Even when he was tackled by a crazed fan onstage in Toronto recently, breaking three ribs and bruising another five in the process, he picked himself up, grabbed his guitar and plowed painfully on with the set anyway.

So Noel figures his body can still handle the occasional Bacchanalian road-trip party during the band's tour on behalf of its latest album, Dig Out Your Soul.

"Even though things start to not repair themselves as quick as they once did at my age, I think being in a band keeps you young, at least mentally, and I have a lot of nervous energy, which helps," he explains. "Plus, I'm lucky enough to be able to have home gym equipment. I've always shied away from exercise because of the clothes, the gear you have to wear when you do it. But I'm not a fitness freak, and when I'm on the road, I've gotta say it's just fucking club sandwiches and french fries, and I kinda like that. Because on the road, it's not supposed to be a health farm, now is it?"

And while much of Gallagher's Dig material is lyrically — even musically — zenlike, à la "The Turning," "Waiting for the Rapture" and the mantra-ish single "The Shock of the Lightning," he's not above taking a few swipes at any dastardly downloader who wants it, gratis.

"All that stuff about giving music away for free on the Internet?" he says, sniffing disdainfully. "We're not giving ours away, because it costs too much fucking money to make. But if some kid out there who can't afford to buy our record can find it for free, more power to 'em. But putting it out for free like some bands are doing? Get the fuck out — no fucking way."

Oasis still sounds thuggishly old-school when it comes to modern technology — with one major personal concession, Gallagher acknowledges. He sees the iPod as "the greatest invention, ever. And me, personally? I carry my entire record collection around in my pocket. Fuck me, man — it doesn't get any better than that!"

And besides, he adds, a brief Oasis summer tour of Britain just went on sale.

"We just sold nearly a million tickets in two days. And you cannot download that shared experience. You cannot download 50,000 people in a stadium, and even if you could, it wouldn't be the same. And that's the greatest thing.

"With all this stuff about music being given away for free and all that bollocks, if you can play your instruments, if you can get up onstage and inspire people, then you've got it made. D'ya know what I mean?"

Noel Gallagher Wants To Be A Priest

No comments



















Noel Gallagher says he wants to be a priest.

The Oasis guitarist - famed for his hard partying - believes he would be well-suited to a career in the Catholic Church if he wasn't a rock star.

He said: "I'd be a priest. I would bring a healthy dose of reality. Put your money in the basket and let's drink some wine.

"When the wine is gone down we'll sit around and try and work out what the deal is with life and the universe. I would be a different kind of priest, see."

Noel also claimed he should be the band's frontman because he gets more attention from women than his brother, singer Liam.

He added to Britain's Elle magazine: "Liam used to be a sex symbol until he got his hair cut like a woman.

"I ooze sex appeal. I should be the frontman. It's a curse - women won't leave me alone."

Dig Out The Soul Of Oasis

No comments







When Noel Gallagher turned over production duties, it gave him a chance to dig out the soul of Oasis - and to spend more time drinking

Noel Gallagher has returned to his roots. For the Oasis helmsman, the homecoming has not involved laborious genealogical research or reuniting with childhood friends. Instead, it's meant ceding control of production duties on the band's latest album, Dig Out Your Soul, setting out on a worldwide tour and getting drunk. Really drunk.

"I felt like I'd gone as far as I could with my own thing," Gallagher explains. "I'm not really technically proficient in the studio. I know how to get one sound, and it's fucking great, but I've kind of gotten a bit bored of it now."

In passing the responsibilities of production entirely to Dave Sardi, Gallagher said he had more space to focus on priorities.

"It allowed me to focus more on drinking and kind of just being in the band as opposed to being one foot in the band and one foot in the production team," he says. "But the main thing was the drinking."

The newfound creative freedom and access to alcohol wasn't the only shift for Gallagher or his brother Liam or the band as a whole on Soul. From the dynamic of the songwriting process to the recording method, Gallagher says the new disc represents a departure.

"This is the first time we've ever not played an album live in the studio together," Gallagher points out. "This is all virtually hung around a drum loop and a bass line, and then we just start and we build it from there. So we were trying to create it like you would create dance music; we weren't really set on the arrangements. We had the songs, the words and the melodies. The rest of it was all up for grabs."

Coupled with shifts in the band's personnel (Zak Starkey left the band and was replaced by former Robbie Williams drummer Chris Sharrock for the current tour), the new method has made for some uncertain moments in the band's live performances.

"Number one," he says, "we had to break in a new drummer, and number two, we had to play songs off a new album that we'd never played before. It had all been done on the computer. So for the first few weeks, it was a bit — I gotta say, it was a bit shit, it was a bit, fucking, 'Oh, my God, this isn't going to work.' But it clicked in the end."

The band's hard-won coherence has helped Gallagher rediscover the joys of touring that he first discovered doing roadie work as a teenager.

"I like being on the road, you know," Gallagher declares. "There's a lot of bullshit you put up with, just bullshit — but such is life, I guess. It doesn't take me long to get into the lifestyle of, you know, rock and roll and partying. That's what we live for, no?"

Tales From the Middle Of Nowhere

Taken from Noel's tour diary for Oasisinet.com

There's a fog upon LA (the quiet one said that). I love the fog. We don't get it much in England anymore (not round my manor anyway).

I'm growing to like this town more and more. Is that wrong?

Went to a party the other night. Andy was dj'ing. Speed dj'ing, in fact. Like a crackhead. He must've set some record for the most amount of tunes played in the least amount of time.

Got 2 days off now. Not much fun without the sun though. There's always shopping, I suppose.

Seen the shittest busker of all time yesterday in Santa Monica, but I did purchase a lovely pair of brown cords.

That's pretty much it.

In a bit.

GD.

Oasis Could Record Solo Albums

No comments










Noel Gallagher tells Radio 1's Colin Murray that it was easier writing Dig Out Your Soul than 2005's Don't Believe The Truth, admits he can't remember the recording of second album (What's the Story) Morning Glory? and says he'd like the four members of Oasis to record their own material.

Is Dig Out Your Soul better then Don't Believe The Truth?

Yeah, I think so. Don't Believe The Truth is a great collection of songs but it doesn't really hang together as an album. This is more like an album in the sense that Pink Floyd made albums. It probably won't have as many big singles on it as Don't Believe The Truth but that's not a bad thing.

Listen to Noel Gallagher talking to Colin Murray

Does it feel like a second album because Don't Believe The Truth was a bit of a rebirth critically?

It feels like a first one, because we're on our own record label now. Not that we ever got any interference from Sony but it's quite liberating to think, 'This is for us now'. We've fulfilled our commitment to them and we've left them to do their own thing and vice-versa.

I'm not saying you'd like to release a solo record, but have you got any tracks that you've recorded that you set aside or didn't get recorded?

I don't specifically put songs aside. There are songs that have just fallen by the wayside that are still great but have missed their moment. Like Stop The Clocks for instance. That needs to come out soon. At the end of this tour, I'd like everyone to do something separately. I think it would be interesting for our fans.

But I also think because we've ended up with this album at a place where we were working to for the last five years. It's kind of like, 'What do we do next?'. Liam's always the first person to start rushing things. I think if he wants to get back in the saddle that quick, he should do it for himself. He's got tonnes and tonnes of songs.

Is making records getting easier with age and perceived wisdom?


For a while. From Be Here Now to Don't Believe The Truth it was getting progressively more difficult. But this one was a bit of a breeze. We were working in London. We were going home every night. Our producer had this idea to make this kind of psychedelic, monotonous drone-rock album. We went along with it. It was just what we needed at our age, for somebody to say, 'Why don't you go away and wrote some songs like this'. We were like, 'OK'. Whereas usually we'd be flicking through CDs going, 'What about that one? We could do something with that one'. The previous one, Don't Believe The Truth, was a nightmare, an absolute nightmare.

Are you saying you needed somebody to say no?

No. It's nothing to do with that. I would assume control of most things. Halfway through Don't Believe The Truth I realised that I can only do one thing with Oasis, that's make it sound like it's sounded for 10 years. Once I finally got it in my head that I was going to let it go and let someone else do it, it was very liberating for me in a way.

The best Oasis songs have always been the ones that were quick to write. What were the 10 minute jobs on Dig Out Your Soul?

Shock Of The Lightening and Falling Down. We had a weekend off and my missus went up to Scotland with my little lad. I wrote the pair of them, one on a Saturday night and one on a Sunday night. The Importance Of Being Idle was pretty quick as well actually. Saying that though, I remember Rock 'n' Roll Star taking forever to write. Nine times out of 10 a quick song will be great and one that takes a week or two will be rubbish.

You said you were a fan who writes songs. Critics say you've plagiarised other people's music. As a songwriter is there a line you have to draw?

I'll lay it down on the line for you. What I actually do is I sit and listen to Beatles' records and I play along with them and then I gradually take the most obvious components of their songs, take them out and just put some of my own words in and hey presto, we've got a song. Of course not. I don't sit and listen, play along with them them and go, if I'm listening to This Guy's In Love With You by Burt Bacharach, call it The Sky's In Love With You. Who would know?

Have you started sleepwalking?

I woke up one morning on a different floor of my house than the one I went to bed in. I wasn't drunk and I hadn't been out the night before. I can't remember getting there. Sarah came down and she said, 'Maybe you've started sleepwalking'. I was like, 'If I started sleepwalking at 41, life just keeps getting better and better. This is incredible'. Where would you end up? You could end up anywhere. I haven't done it since though.

There was a great story when you signed to Creation that you told them you had 50 songs written but you only had six. Did you have all those songs?

When we signed at the Sony offices we were saying, 'We could complete this six-album deal in three weeks'. And they were going, 'How many songs have you got'. And we started writing down all these songs and it got to about 11 and we stopped and we just started making up stupid titles.

Are there a lot of things you can't remember?

'94 to '98. None of us have any recollection of recording Morning Glory. I don't remember any of it. When we were coming up here Don't Look Back In Anger was on the radio. It only took 12 days to record so they're basically a bunch of demos. There was a massive fight in the middle of that so we had to abandon the studio for a few days. None of us had any cameras, no-one had any mobile phones, it hasn't been documented and there are no different versions.
