OASIS – Their Underated Sixth Album ‘DON’T BELIEVE THE TRUTH’ Was Released 20 Years Ago

Significant longplayers from yesteryear

31 May 2025

That siblings band from Manchester, England OASIS released their 6th album,
named DON’T BELIEVE THE TRUTH on 30 May 2005, this day 20 years ago.

The Guardian (English newspaper) wrote in retrospect: “Little is the same as it was back then, for all parties concerned, but this is where Oasis start to mend some broken promises. It feels like a lifetime since a new album from the Gallaghers justified the hype and rhetoric spun on its behalf, but this is so good, it makes you want to pour not one but two glasses of Jack-Daniels over your head.”

TUTV: One of their best longplayers, yet criminally underrated. Some mucky Velvet Underground fingers, a stunning Lyla, and bad boy Liam mad for it once again. Several supersonic rockers and as usual a couple of anthemic ballads. Kaïn and Abel are eternal rock heroes.

Key tracks: Mucky Fingers / Lyla / Let There Be Love /
The Importance Of Being Idle / Keep The Dream Alive

Think it’s time that you came out and played
