Following the meteoric global success of Definitely Maybe (1994), Whats The Story
(Morning Glory?) (1995) and Be Here Now (1997), with Standing On The Shoulder Of GiantsOasis embraced a bold development in their sound. Noel Gallagher took a broader and moreexperimental approach to recording, resulting in a departure from their earlier soundstowards a modern psychedelic rock influenced record. This experimentation and richer sonicpalette was in part due to Noel taking more time to craft this record than he had previouslyenjoyed.
