Oasis: Ranking Every Album From Worst To Best
8. Heathen Chemistry (2002)
Oasis were not in the best of positions at the turn of the century. After making their grand comeback in 2000 with new members and a new live album, the group seemed a tad bit uninspired about where to go next.
This led to Noel Gallagher taking a step back and letting other band members write some songs. This goes over pretty well with Liam Gallagher's "Songbird" being a serene departure and Noel's own "Little by Little"
However, the album kind of tapers off after you hear the singles. Band members Andy Bell and Gem Archer seem like they haven't fully settled into the Oasis model. But the standouts "Stop Crying Your Heart Out" and the rocker "The Hindu Times" stand tall as the group's greatest single cuts. But other than that, this record just feels like the band on autopilot. They would fare much better on their next release.
