Definitely getting a lot of positive reaction. Is there anyone who was not convinced by the band after DGSS, changed their opinion after hearing BE?

This album is better overall, all the songs are good.
I'll be honest..I wasn't expecting Beady Eye to come up with a song like Soon Come Tomorrow, sounds absolutely amazing one of the best songs i've heard, even from since the Oasis era.
Its songs like that which can give them a good reputation

No....I am blinkered to a degree (as most are on a fan site) as I want it to be good rather than taking an impartial view. I am very critical in all aspects of any Gallagher work these days and im probrably too harsh at times but I thought it was pretty poor (going against the grain here but just being honest). I thought they would have learned from the first record but their is still maybe 5 tracks on the album which you wont want to listen too again. Dont let this put you off as it's just my opinion and as you can see there are loads of people who think its great!!!

Its a solid album, no extreme highs (but more than DGSS) and no lows, all songs are at least 'good', some are 'great' and others are 'amazing'. But it sounds great as an album. I noticed the album had no lows when i tried to guess the next single. At least 3/4 of the album could be single material, which is a good thing.

Yes, I really enjoy it. I like FOTF off the bat and SBOTA too but not to the same extent however after hearing the album in full, I can understand SBOTA being a single and have grown to appreciate the song more in the context of the album.
a 7 out of 10 for me.
the bonus track Back After The Break also I feel should have been included over say "Ballroom figured" in my opinion would have made the album a 8/10 as I think its a very solid track. Weakest track is "Face The Crowd" for me. Look forward to hearing Girls In Uniform & Evil Eye.
My favorite tracks are FOTF, SCT, JS & SA

BE is such a big step ahead, far from DGSS (and even NGHFB). It is the right album for Beady Eye, it contains all the band needs at the moment: great songs (FOTF, SL,SCT,SA) reminiscent songs (IR, IJS) and soft and nice ballads. They sound confident and optimistic. It might not be the album Oasis shoulda done after Be Here Now, but it is the album they needed after SOTSOG.

On my 4th play through of the album and am in love with it.
Absolutely fantastic effort from Liam & Co.
However, SBOTA is a terrible song.

A huge emphatic YES! Even a huge Oasis/HFB/BE fanboy like myself was shocked by how good it is. As much as I love Beady Eye I never saw songs as good as Soon Come Tomorrow and Ballroom Figured coming, even the worst two Face The Crowd and Shine A Light are good songs, Face The Crowd isn't that far off Four Letter Word to be honest and that 'turn your eyes to me part' is so damn catchy! Shine A Light sounds like it was probably an instrumental for a while and they just wrote some words for it to make it a proper song but it 'rocks' when it kicks in after the opening piano bit is amazing, especially coming through huge speakers.
I reckon in 2 years time when I've played it to death I'll consider it about 8/10, right now it sounds like a 10/10 but so did HFB and DBTT when they first came out for me so gotta wait for the intial thrill to wear off before I can be really objective.
Just been through all the bonus tracks as well in high quality and there's no drop off in quality from the album with those except DOSS obviously.
I am annoyed at the promotional campaign though, this is likely to be the best album Beady Eye ever make, it's easily good enough to make an impression on the public but they've had very little promotion, the choice of singles has been shocking! Flick is good but mediocre in compared to the rest SBOTA is the 3rd worst on the album and Soul Love like the other two is a bit naff live. They should have come back with I'm Just Saying as the promo track and Soon Comes Tomorrow as the single. Off at The Next Exit and Evil Eye also had to be on the album, I can't believe they're just bonus songs, this is fuck-uppery of Masterplan proportions!

after listening to the japanese bonus tracks its a maybe from me. i have never been a beady eye fan, and was disappointed with album. i was hoping this album would change my mind, but it didn't. i can only really listen to 4 tracks from the album. but the bonus tracks are pretty great.

Well its been a few days since i've had the leak (and the better version), just this minute i've got the bonus tracks
Anyway overall verdict, a solid 8/10. Theres a few filler tracks (face the crowd, shine a light, i'm just saying) i'm not keen on, must admit blasting those out in the car they're not bad.
Theres a lot of good songs on the album, the bonus tracks i really like specially World not set in stone and Off at the Next Exit. Evil Eye is pretty good.
I'm looking forward to getting the CD next monday, i mean these 17 tracks are very good, great value and its a great album. Be very disappointing if people dont buy it because they've got the leak.
Top marks to Beady Eye, a solid 8/10 for sure

Definitely getting a lot of positive reaction. Is there anyone who was not convinced by the band after DGSS, changed their opinion after hearing BE? Most definitely. Only enjoyed 2 or 3 songs on DGSS and wasn't expecting much when I heard BE was being released. Then I listened to FOTF and was blown away which then made me want to listen to the rest of it. With the exception of SBOTA I think it's an excellent album.
