‘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.

Sounds like it should be good, too bad they resigned to Sony after making such a big deal about not resigning after DBTT.
It depends... is Zak Starkey the drummer on the record? I read that he is. He is the drummer for the Who nowadays too. Taught by none other than the legend "Keith Moon".
Havent really heard Oasis though, I get them confused with Pearl Jam (i dont know why). I'll give Oasis a listen.

So Oasis can tell us the exact date their album comes out in October, and the date for the single as well, but we're going crazy for anything about U2's new album. Go figure.
sack Liam and i'd like em. Noel is the business but Liam is just a cock
i'll second that . I've seen them live and it's weird to see when Noel takes over and does his show within the show the applause and admiration he gets , and then Liam returns to the stage and it's like , oh great the whiny bitch is back . I love Oasis , I just wish Noel sang everything.I think the ones that he does sing ,are their best songs.
Good band, but not that very special. A friend of mine is completely in love with them, but I don't understand. I once *coughed* a best of and from that best of I only liked 4 or 5 songs.
I heard some early footage from this new album a few months ago but it didn't impress me too.
