Oasis is on track to reclaim the No. 1 spot on the U.K. Official Albums Chart with their iconic debut album Definitely Maybe, thanks to the hype surrounding their 2025 reunion tour.
As the album celebrates its 30th anniversary, it’s predicted to rise four spots, potentially marking the first time in three decades that it has topped the chart. The 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of Definitely Maybe has sparked renewed interest, featuring previously unreleased demos from the band’s original Monnow Valley and Sawmills Studios sessions.
Since its release in 1994, the album has spent a total of 556 weeks in the U.K. Top 100, and was the fastest-selling debut in British history at the time.
The band’s 2009 hits compilation Time Flies… (1994-2009) is also expected to climb, with predictions placing it at No. 2, while their second studio album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, looks likely to hold its position in the Top 5.
Further down the chart, other Oasis albums are enjoying a resurgence. The Masterplan is expected to jump 63 places to No. 35, and their third album, Be Here Now, is predicted to re-enter the Top 40 at No. 37.
The Oasis Live ’25 tour has already caused a wave of excitement, with “unprecedented demand” leading to the addition of three more dates in the U.K. The Gallaghers announced that, despite rumors, the band will not be playing any festivals in 2025. Instead, fans will have to catch them on their official reunion tour, which kicks off in July.
Elsewhere on the chart, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are on track to secure their seventh Top 10 album with their latest release, Wild God, which is currently eyeing a No. 3 debut, potentially marking their highest-charting LP in eight years. English rock band Wunderhorse is also making waves with their second album, Midas, which is set to enter at No. 6, a career-best for the group.
Meanwhile, U2’s ZOO TV Live in Dublin 1993 EP is projected to land at No. 15, giving the legendary band their 22nd Top 40 album.
Newcomer Paris Paloma is poised to make her Albums Chart debut with her first full-length release, Cacophony, expected to secure a spot at No. 40, rounding out a competitive week on the U.K. Official Albums Chart.
