OASIS - New Album(s) and all General Discussion

NEW ALBUM & SINGLE DETAILS ANNOUNCED
24 June 2008

‘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.

Yes! Good news.

but Dig Out Your Soul is an awful name for an album.

Sounds like a Hindu porn movie or somethin.

Looking forward to this, though, for sure. Thanks.

WTF!

I agree that it's a strange title though.

LemonMelon · 06-24-2008, 04:57 PM

Don't Believe The Truth was sooooooo good. Bring on the new one!

phanan · 06-24-2008, 04:58 PM

I hope it's as good.

I like "That's Cracking Lightning" best of all.

Some good tunes on there. But yes, it's the worst of the Oasis albums. Though even a weak Oasis album is better than most other bands' good records...

I really enjoyed Heathen Chemistry and wish that it received more respect around here. In my mind it was an enormous improvement over Shoulders of Giants and is stronger than Don't Believe the Truth.

Aardvark747 · 06-25-2008, 04:05 AM

I'll look forward to hearing it

Totally agree. I don't really get why that album got "mmeh, another disappointing Oasis album" reception while Don't Believe the Truth got hailed as a "comeback",

I hope Liam's voice got better than what it sounded on a last few live clips I've seen.

U2isthebest · 06-25-2008, 09:48 AM

I loved "Don't Believe the Truth" I hope this album rocks too. I can't wait.

vaz02 · 06-25-2008, 09:53 AM

I heard a few of the demo's a while back and they put me to sleep.
I hope the success of their last album hasnt got to their heads.
