Agree that the album still sounds good and I also think that Fool's Gold/Something's Burning were a great next step forward which was totally forgotten by the time of the disastrous second album. I'm still surprised that Oasis are taken seriously as something amazing as opposed to this. Marr's autobiography (he is a huge hometown booster) totally ignores them (and the Mondays too I think).

Yes it’s still a fucking great album and anyone who doesn’t like “fools gold” is not to be trusted

the second coming is quite underrated. Take out 2 of the acoustic tracks in the middle and it'd be great.

Second Coming had great b-sides as well, particularly the ones that were recorded after the album was completed. Would love a deluxe reissue
