‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ new single out September 29th

‘Dig Out Your Soul’ new album out October 6th

Oasis are set to return later this year with a new single and their seventh studio album. The single,‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ is released on September 29th and the album, ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ follows in October; it is the first new Oasis music since last year’s ‘Lord Don’t Slow Me Down’, taken from the on the road film of the same name. ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ sees Dave Sardy return to the producer’s chair following his work on their 2005 album, ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’. Recorded at Abbey Road and mixed in Los Angeles, all four members once again contribute tracks, but the recording marks a new approach for the band as described by the band’s principle songwriter, Noel:

“I wanted to write music that had a groove; not songs that followed that traditional pattern of verse, chorus and middle eight. I wanted a sound that was more hypnotic; more driving. Songs that would draw you in, in a different way. Songs that you would maybe have to connect to - to feel.”

The lead single is still unmistakably Oasis, a Noel penned song with Liam’s immediately familiar voice to the fore underlining their distinctive brand of finger in the socket rock ’n’ roll.

‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ may well represent the most recognisable Oasis song on the album but, again, the new approach on ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ was present on this lead track as Noel explains:

“If ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ sounds instant and compelling to you, it’s because it was written dead fast. And recorded dead fast. ‘The Shock of The Lightning’ basically is the demo. And it has retained its energy. And there’s a lot to be said for that, I think. The first time you record something is always the best.”

‘Dig Out Your Soul’ will be the first album released on the band’s own Big Brother label worldwide.

apparently, none of the leaked songs ('Stop The Clocks', 'Record Machine' and 'Nothing On Me') are not on the album. i personally think thats a shame coz two of those songs were up there with anything Oasis had done in 10 years in my opinion. Edith Bowman (Radio 1 DJ) did a little write up on the album...i'll see if i can find it and post it here

here:

''now i hope i dont get into trouble for this but i have heard the whole of the new oasis album, i could tell you what its called but then i would have to kill you, or i'd have a hit on me.
What i can say is that they are back on form and, fuck me. on total firing form. there are 6 noel tracks, 3 from liam, one from gem and one from andy and they are all huge.
The first single will hit you like a tonne weight and just reminded me of what i heard when stuff like supersonic and rock n roll star for the first time. liam has properly acquired the title of great songwriter and noel just kicks ass on guitar and vocals. gem and andy are also awlays the unsung heroes who deserve the recognition of holding the whole thing together.
i had the pleasure of hanging out with them all doing interviews for their press stuff, which meant i had a hour long interview with each of them individually. we forget how great a band they are and no matter how people try , there really is only one liam gallagher, hes a proper legend, get excited cause it will blow you away.
p.s those tracks that were leaked arent even on the album''

Oh ok, well that's a shame bout the leaked tracks not being included, but anyway that write up sounds really good. So far it's sounding like it's gonna be a good one. Thanks for the info :upyours
