Amidst a cloud of heavy drug usage, media obsession, paranoia, overindulgence, and internal unrest, Britpop icons Oasis released their 3rd studio full-length in 1997. The album, titled Be Here Now, was intended to be even bigger than the album that preceded it, their mega-selling breakthrough (What's The Story?) Morning Glory.

For a while it seemed as though Be Here Now would reach those lofty heights, becoming the fastest-selling British record of the year, scoring multiple Top 10 hits, and rave reviews from the public. The initial glow wore off very quickly however, and critics and the public were very quick to turn upon it. Be Here Now would go on to achieve the dubious honor of the most returned album to second hand stores, retrospective reviews declared it bloated and overproduced, and it would maintain a reputation as one of Oasis' all-time worst records.

Is it, though? That's what we intend to find out on this new episode of Jukebox Zeroes. Joined by return guest Jon Sasor of Ease Into The Noise and Melt, Lilz and Patrick dig out the soul of Be Here Now, and try to find some solace amidst the 36-piece orchestras and Liam Gallagher's thick Mancunian accent.
