My favorite angsty tracks from my favorite angsty band from Manchester, England.

Back when their 1st album Definitely Maybe was released in 1994, I was already boozing to Cigarettes & Alcohol. And I carried a file in the U with their Black and White logo plastered proudly on it like some wannabe juvenile Brit-rocker. Don't Look Back In Anger became an anthem for those cooling off periods after quarelling with the girlfriend. With Stop Crying Your Heart Out reserved for the really melancholic occasions when only a stiff JD on the rocks and a lighted butt in hand would do justice to the heartache.

Well the past week has been an appropriate one for reliving some Brit-rock euphoria. Liam's yelping howls and the jangly electric guitar riffs make good company.

Because I am still searching for that emotional oasis. Too many mirages lately...


P.S A Best Of entitled Stop The Clocks, 'celebrating' the end of contractual obligations with their record company, is due for release in Nov 2006. Can angst together on 1 disc. Smashin'! =))
