Standing on the Shoulder of Giants, Oasis's fourth album, landed on 28 February 2000, and the Britpop kings came to it battered. Alan McGee had shut down Creation, so this was their first record on their own Big Brother label; founding members Bonehead and Guigsy walked out while it was being made; and Owen Morris was gone from the producer's chair, with Mark "Spike" Stent in beside Noel Gallagher.
So Noel went looking for a new sound and found it down the rabbit hole: drum loops and samples, electric sitar, Mellotron, synths and guitars running backwards. "Go Let It Out" swaggers on a fat groove, "Who Feels Love?" goes full psychedelic, "Gas Panic!" slinks into trip hop, and Liam finally got a song of his own on an Oasis album with "Little James". The faithful still rushed out for it: better than 310,000 sold in week one, the 16th-fastest seller the UK chart has ever seen.
