The rest of the month proved to be difficult for the group. Oasis were due to record an episode of ''[[MTV Unplugged]]'' at the [[Royal Festival Hall]] but Liam pulled out, citing a sore throat.

Oasis spent the end of 1996 and the first quarter of 1997 at [[Abbey Road Studios]] in London and Ridge Farm Studios in [[Surrey]] recording their third album. Quarrels between the Gallagher brothers plagued the recording sessions. ''[[Be Here Now (album)|Be Here Now]]'' was released in August 1997. Preceded by the UK number one single "[[D'You Know What I Mean?]]", the album was their most anticipated effort, and as such became the subject of considerable media attention. By the end of the first day of release, ''Be Here Now'' sold 424,000 units and by the end of business on Saturday of that week sales had reached 696,000, making it the fastest-selling album in British history.<ref>Harris, pg. 342.</ref> The album debuted at number two on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] in the US, but its first week sales of 152,000—below expected sales of 400,000 copies—were considered a disappointment.<ref>{{citecytuj webstronę|url=http://www.rollingstone.com/news/story/5924518/live_forever|titletytuł=Rolling Stone news article|workpraca=Rolling Stone|accessdatedata dostępu=28 September 2014}}</ref> Although early media reviews were positive, once the hype had died down, the album was criticised for being bloated and derivative with most of the critics focused on the extensive length of several songs, the heavier sound, and overproduction.
By this time the Britpop movement was in decline, and the band had failed to meet expectations with their third album. After the conclusion of the [[Be Here Now Tour]] in early 1998, amidst much media criticism the group kept a low profile. Later in the year, Oasis released a compilation album of fourteen B-sides, entitled ''[[The Masterplan (Oasis album)|The Masterplan]]''. "The really interesting stuff from around that period is the B-sides. There's a lot more inspired music on the B-sides than there is on ''Be Here Now'' itself, I think", related Noel in an interview in 2008.<ref>[http://www.thewavemag.com/pagegen.php?pagename=article&articleid=26083 Wave Magazine News article].

===''Standing on the Shoulder of Giants'': 1999–2000===
In early 1999, the band began work on their fourth studio album. First details were announced in February with Mark "Spike" Stent revealed to be taking a co-producing role. Things were not going well and the shock departure of founding member Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs was announced in August. This departure was reported at the time as amicable, with Noel stating that Arthurs wanted to spend more time with his family. Arthurs' statement clarified his leaving as "to concentrate on other things".<ref>{{citecytuj newsstronę|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/415855.stm|titletytuł=Gallagher shrugs off Oasis departure|workpraca=BBC News|datedata=10 August 1999|accessdatedata dostępu=9 March 2008}}</ref> However, Noel has since offered a contradicting version: that a series of violations of Noel's "no drink or drugs" policy (imposed by Noel so that Liam could sing properly) for the album's sessions resulted in a confrontation between the two.<ref name="book">{{CiteCytuj bookksiążkę| authorautor=St. Michael, Mick | titletytuł=Oasis: In Their Own Words | publisherwydawca=Omnibus Pr | yearrok=1996 | isbn=0-7119-5695-2}}</ref> Two weeks later the departure of bassist Paul McGuigan was announced.

The now three-piece Oasis chose to continue recording the album, with Noel Gallagher re-recording most of Arthurs' guitar and McGuigan's bass parts. After the completion of the recording sessions, the band began searching for replacement members. The first new member to be announced was new lead/rhythm guitarist [[Gem Archer|Colin "Gem" Archer]], formerly of [[Heavy Stereo]], who later claimed to have been approached by Noel Gallagher only a couple of days after Arthurs' departure was publicly announced.<ref>{{citecytuj webstronę|url=http://mad4gem.tripod.com/biography.htm|titletytuł=tripod.com|publisheropublikowany=Mad4gem.tripod.com|accessdatedata dostępu=28 September 2014}}</ref> Finding a replacement bassist took more time and effort. The band were rehearsing with [[David Potts (singer)|David Potts]], but he quickly resigned, and they brought in [[Andy Bell (musician)|Andy Bell]], former guitarist/songwriter of [[Ride (band)|Ride]] and [[Hurricane No. 1]] as their new bassist. Bell had never played bass before and had to learn to play it (with Noel since saying that Liam said, "If he can play the guitar, he can play the fookin' bass"), along with a handful of songs from Oasis' back catalogue, in preparation for a scheduled tour of America in December 1999.
With the folding of Creation Records, Oasis formed their own label, [[Big Brother Recordings|Big Brother]], which released all of Oasis' subsequent records in the UK and Ireland. Oasis' fourth album, ''[[Standing on the Shoulder of Giants]]'', was released in February 2000 to good first-week sales. It peaked at number one on the British charts and number 24 on the ''Billboard'' charts.<ref>[http://www.oasisinet.com/site.php?site=album&atype=0&country=172&idx=19 Oasis – Official Website – Discography] retrieved on 15 December 2007. {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071011005304/http://www.oasisinet.com/site.php?site=album&atype=0&country=172&idx=19 |date=11 October 2007 }}</ref><ref>[{{BillboardURLbyName|artist=oasis|chart=all}} Billboard.com – Discography – Oasis – Standing on the Shoulders of Giants]{{dead link|date=February 2011}} retrieved on 15 December 2007</ref> Three singles were released from the album: "[[Go Let It Out]]", "[[Who Feels Love?]]" and "[[Sunday Morning Call]]", all of which were top five UK singles.<ref>{{citecytuj webstronę|url=http://www.thetop40charts.co.uk/top40/|titletytuł=Top 40 Singles|publisheropublikowany=Thetop40charts.co.uk|accessdatedata dostępu=28 September 2014}}</ref> The "Go Let It Out" video was shot before Bell joined the group and therefore featured the unusual line-up of Liam on rhythm guitar, Archer on lead guitar and Noel on bass. With the departure of the founding members, the band made several small changes to their image and sound. The cover featured a new "Oasis" logo, designed by Gem Archer, and the album was also the first Oasis release to include a song written by Liam Gallagher, entitled "Little James". The songs also had more experimental, psychedelic influences.<ref name="allmusicstanding">[{{Allmusic|class=album|id=r466450|pure_url=yes}} Standing on the Shoulders of Giants > Overview ].

To support the record the band staged an eventful world tour. While touring in [[Barcelona]] in 2000, Oasis were forced to cancel a gig when an attack of [[tendinitis]] caused Alan White's arm to seize up, and the band spent the night drinking instead. After a row between the two brothers, Noel declared he was quitting touring overseas altogether, and Oasis were supposed to finish the tour without him.<ref>{{citecytuj newsstronę|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/760729.stm|titletytuł=Oasis Noel quits tour|workpraca=BBC News|datedata=23 May 2000|accessdatedata dostępu=15 December 2007}}</ref> Noel eventually returned for the Irish and British legs of the tour, which included two major shows at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley Stadium]].

Throughout 2001, Oasis split time between sessions for their fifth studio album and live shows around the world. Some gigs included the month-long [[Tour of Brotherly Love]] with [[The Black Crowes]] and [[Spacehog]] and a show in Paris supporting [[Neil Young]]. The album, ''[[Heathen Chemistry]]'', Oasis' first album with new members Andy Bell and Gem Archer, was released in July 2002.

The record blended the band's sonic experiments from their last albums, but also went for a more basic rock sound.<ref name="allmusicheathen"/> The recording of ''Heathen Chemistry'' was much more balanced for the band, with all of the members, apart from White, writing songs. [[Johnny Marr]] provided additional guitar as well as backup vocals on a couple of songs.
After the album's release, the band embarked on a successful world tour that was once again filled with incidents. In late summer 2002, whilst the band were on tour in the US, Noel, Bell and touring keyboardist [[Jay Darlington]] were involved in a car accident in Indianapolis. While none of the band members sustained any major injuries, some shows were cancelled as a result. In December 2002, the latter half of the German leg of the band's European tour had to be postponed after Liam Gallagher, Alan White and three other members of the band's entourage were arrested after a violent brawl at a [[Munich]] nightclub. The band had been drinking heavily and tests showed that Liam had used cocaine.<ref>{{citecytuj newsstronę|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/3685545.stm|titletytuł=Brawling Oasis singer 'on drugs'|workpraca=BBC News|datedata=5 May 2004|accessdatedata dostępu=9 March 2008}}</ref> Liam lost two front teeth and kicked a police officer in the ribs, while Alan suffered minor head injuries after getting hit with an [[ashtray]].<ref name="Scotsman">{{citecytuj webstronę|url=http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/ViewArticle.aspx?articleid=2383329|titletytuł=Oasis singer could face jail for bar brawl|publisheropublikowany=Thescotsman.scotsman.com|accessdatedata dostępu=28 September 2014}}</ref> Two years later Liam was fined around £40,000.<ref>[http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4158/is_20041123/ai_n12823072 Independent News article] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071217191717/http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4158/is_20041123/ai_n12823072 |date=17 December 2007 }}.

===''Don't Believe the Truth'': 2004–06===
Liam Gallagher said Oasis began recording a sixth album in late December 2003 with producers [[Death in Vegas]] at Sawmills Studios in Cornwall. The album was originally planned for a September 2004 release to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the release of ''Definitely Maybe''. However, long-time drummer Alan White, who at this time had played on nearly all of the band's material, left the band in early January 2004. At the time, his brother Steve White stated on his own website that "the spirit of being in a band was kicked out of him" and he wanted to be with his current girlfriend.<ref>[http://www.whiteydrums.com/ Drumming website] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150815014323/http://www.whiteydrums.com/ |date=15 August 2015 }}</ref> White was replaced by [[Zak Starkey]], drummer of [[the Who]] and the son of [[the Beatles]]' [[Ringo Starr]]. Though Starkey performed on studio recordings and toured with the band, he was not officially a member and the band were a four-piece for the first time in their career. Starkey played publicly for the first time at [[The Lighthouse (Poole)|Poole Lighthouse]].
A few days later, Oasis, with Starkey, headlined the [[Glastonbury Festival]] for the second time in their career and performed a largely greatest hits set, which included two new songs — Gem Archer's "A Bell Will Ring" and Liam Gallagher's "The Meaning of Soul". The performance received negative reviews, with ''NME'' calling it a "disaster."<ref>{{citecytuj webstronę|url=http://www.nme.com/reviews/oasis/7678|titletytuł=NME news article|datedata=12 September 2005|workpraca=NME.COM|accessdatedata dostępu=28 September 2014}}</ref> The ''BBC'''s Tom Bishop called Oasis' set "lacklustre and uneventful ... prompting a mixed reception from fans", mainly because of Liam's uninspired singing and Starkey's lack of experience with the band's material.<ref>{{citecytuj newsstronę|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/film/3842947.stm|titletytuł=Oasis fail to surprise Glastonbury|workpraca=BBC News|datedata=26 June 2004|lastnazwisko=Bishop|firstimię=Tom|accessdatedata dostępu=3 February 2008}}</ref>
After much turbulence, the band's sixth album was finally recorded in Los Angeles-based Capitol Studios from October to December the same year.

In May 2005, after three years and as many scrapped recording sessions, the band released their sixth studio album, ''[[Don't Believe the Truth]]'', fulfilling their contract with [[Sony BMG]]. It followed the path of ''Heathen Chemistry'' as being a collaborative project again, rather than a Noel-written album.<ref>{{citecytuj webstronę|url=http://www.nme.com/reviews/oasis/7660|titletytuł=NME news article|datedata=12 September 2005|workpraca=NME.COM|accessdatedata dostępu=28 September 2014}}</ref> The album was the first in a decade not to feature drumming by Alan White, marking the recording debut of Starkey.
