Be Here Now, Oasis’s third studio album, was released in 1997 at the peak of their fame. Known for its massive sound, long track lengths, and wall-of-guitar production, it became the fastest-selling album in UK chart history at the time. Though divisive upon release, it captures the excess and ambition of Britpop’s height, with anthemic tracks like “D’You Know What I Mean?” and “Stand by Me.” Now viewed as a cult favourite, Be Here Now remains a bold, unapologetic snapshot of a band at full throttle.
