Posted August 10, 200816 yr Those appearing on a Gallagher brothers album cover beware - you could be next Thought the Dark Knight was cursed? Pfft! Daily Today's Mirror has uncovered a far darker spell working it's wicked magic on pop culture – The Curse of the Oasis album sleeve (please insert sound of thunder and cackling here)! As Mulder and Skully might have once said, the proof is out there. The sleeve for Wonderwall has the band sitting on deckchairs in front of the pier at Weston-super-Mare. Now it's burned down (more cackles! more thunder!). The sleeve for (What's the Story?) Morning Glory features a man walking past the Sister Ray record shop on Berwick Street in London. Now the shop is struggling to survive (slightly less menacing cackle here). The sleeve for Definitely Maybe features a picture of George Best. Now he's dead (um … muffled cackle that seems to be saying, "Er, yeah, but that was 11 years later and he was a massive alcoholic".) The sleeve for Standing on the Shoulder of Giants features a picture of New York City. The city was then attacked by terrorists (no attempt to cackle at all, just miffed voice saying, "But that's the Empire State Building in the foreground! Sod this curse lark for a game of soliders ...). Join us tomorrow when the sleeve for Dig Out Your Soul is reanalysed after someone in Nuneaton stood on a butterfly by mistake. Source: The Observer
