btw the single is not really "experimental"

The single sounds like Morning Glory to me. I hope this album flops cause its surpasses there two crap albums and youre out limit.

 

Although if Noel wrote most of the album there may still be hope.

ive been listening to falling down, and while i dont think its radio friendly in all honesty (which might just be my brains way of saying i dont like it) i dont think its really experimental.

 

i doubt sincerely that oasis will actually go experimental. i think bands really overthink things when they say that. coldplay said it, and while vlv was a change of pace, its not like some big whirlwind shift lol.

 

i think the only bands i really believe in actually experimenting is u2 and radiohead (some may ask why u2, but i know you guys all know about what happened in the 90s), and im not sure even then id completely believe it. for radiohead what could be experimental now lol.

 

personally i think its a fad to say stuff like this, but i think its gonna be the same oasis. for me that means some brilliant songs, and some songs i just wonder where their heads were at.

omg... u should see me! only 1 h and 40min to go!!! looool

Hehe, my favourite radio station was so proud today that Oasis mentioned them first on their official site! :D

20 August 2008

OASIS will play their first show in mainland Europe to accompany their brand new album 'Dig Out Your Soul' in the intimate surroundings of the Gloria Theater in Cologne on September 29th in a performance recorded exclusively for Eins Live.

 

The concert will be broadcast live across Germany from 9.00pm CET on the following radio stations: Bremen Vier, Das Ding, MDR Jump, N-Joy, Radio Eins, Unser Ding, and You FM as well as stations throughout Europe via satellite.

 

This will be the largest ever live radio broadcast of a single artist concert in Germany due to the collaboration of the eight participating stations. Stay tuned to your local participating station for a chance to win tickets to the show.

cool :nice:

 

... but it's a pity that liam sounds rather horrible when he's live on tv or radio ;D

Haha this reminds me of something which happened when I've been to Prague last week. One evening I watched the German music channel VIVA in my room. They had this German chart show and when Coldplay's "Viva La Vida" begins the announcer said:

 

Liam said all Coldplay fans are ugly and stink like hell. That's why "Viva La Vida" drops to number 8.

 

A few seconds later my friend who's not that much into Coldplay laughed sooo hard! I was so ashamed! :D

haha^^ yeah well, i'm not referring to when he's talking... i'm referring to his voice when he's singing xD his voice isn't that good anymore, not at all, in my opinion.

Hm guess I have to listen to this Cologne gig to build up my own opinion about his voice. :)

 

You know how to get any tickets for Cologne?

no idea... but at the end of september it's gonna be all TRAVIIIIIIS for me anyway, as the new album will be out on the 26th :dance:

*wishes Dejan won't post new album news in a separate thread, when there is no fecking need for it*

Did people know that tickets for UK gigs go on sale tomorrow?

I bet these tickets are gonna sell lightening fast.....

 

Within 2 hours they were all gone

The single sounds like Morning Glory to me. I hope this album flops cause its surpasses there two crap albums and youre out limit.

That's a bit of a twatish thing to say, DBTT was considered a return to form by many thus not crap, and Heathen Chemistry still is better than anything most other artists from the last 15 year have in their catalogue.

Just bought Heathen Chemistry, so far I like it a lot. More so than DBTT. Not much point in the stretching of Better Man

Feuding Gallaghers keep their distance in advance of Oasis tour in Cda: Liam

 

TORONTO — The album is ready, the Canadian tour is imminent and the insults have been flying for weeks.

 

Brit loudmouths Oasis are kicking off their Canadian tour Wednesday with the requisite boasts about their upcoming disc and potshots at acts like Coldplay, Radiohead and Amy Winehouse.

 

Such outbursts are par for the course with the outspoken Gallagher brothers, whose reputation for shock and awe dates back to their earliest days.

 

But frontman Liam Gallagher says from his London home that despite all the ballyhoo, he's been tamed by age and family life, having married his longtime Canadian girlfriend Nicole Appleton, the former All Saints singer, in a private ceremony earlier this year.

 

"I'm sick of drinking and smoking . . . you know what I mean," Gallagher says in an expletive-riddled phone interview.

 

"I've calmed down drinking," he says in his thick Manchester accent. "I don't really smoke as much as I used to and I'm just looking after myself a bit better. For me and my children. I just want to live forever, man, I don't want to be not well."

 

Still, avowals of a more balanced outlook come amid a slew of heavyhanded insults he and his brother have reportedly levied in recent days. Last week, the Guardian quoted Gallagher as calling Coldplay and Radiohead fans "boring and ugly," while older brother Noel made headlines after a BBC Radio 1 interview in which he compared the troubled Winehouse to a "destitute horse."

 

But as often as they tear a strip off others, the Gallaghers are notorious for feuding among themselves. That's something that will likely never change, says 35-year old Liam, noting the wild pair have settled into a truce of sorts that centres on as little contact as possible.

 

"We don't really speak that much, there's nothing to say," Gallagher says of 41-year-old Noel, the band's principal songwriter behind such monster '90s hits as "Wonderwall," "Don't Look Back in Anger" and "Supersonic."

 

"We speak if the music ain't right, we sort of pull each other aside and go, 'Look, you're doing that wrong or you're doing that right' and that's it really. ... We see enough of each other on the stage."

 

"I'm cool with it, there's things he don't like about me, there's things I don't like about him. I refuse to be like him and he refuses to be like me."

 

In the past, spectacular Gallagher blowups derailed several public appearances and tours, with Noel quitting the band following an onstage row in 1994, Liam backing out of a U.S. tour in '96, and Noel walking out on a European tour in 2000.

 

Things have calmed considerably since then, with recent tours passing without incident.

 

Tensions obviously remain, though. The elder Gallagher wasn't even at Liam's wedding - but then again, neither was anyone else. Gallagher says he kept the ceremony secret from everyone in an attempt to keep paparazzi at bay.

 

"I'm a pretty private person," says Gallagher, who wed the Toronto-raised Appleton on Valentine's Day.

 

"The minute you tell someone, someone tells that, and then you end up ... paranoid and blaming people. So I thought the best way to do it was to tell no one."

 

Meanwhile, it seems that he, Noel, bassist Andy Bell and guitarist Gem Archer have found a bit of spirituality. Most of the songs on their new disc, "Dig Out Your Soul," deal with religion in one way or another, but none of that was planned beforehand, says Gallagher, who wrote three songs. Bell and Archer each contributed one.

 

"We're not God-heads, and we don't go to church or anything," Gallagher says of the coincidence.

 

"It's just, we're talking about love, life, religion, death, but not in a morbid way. Angels and shit like that; it is what it is."

 

Gallagher's track "I'm Outta Time" includes a radio clip of John Lennon speaking shortly before his death in 1980. But he says it's not meant to be an ode to his musical hero, as some British press have suggested.

 

"People are sort of going on about this tribute to John Lennon - it's not a tribute to John," Gallagher says.

 

"If I tried to write a song about John Lennon it'd . . . sound ridiculous. So it's just a song, man. You know, people will have to get what they get from it, you know what I mean. I hate when people say 'it's about this, it's about that' because instantly people stop using their imagination and you just look for that."

 

Likewise, Gallagher isn't one for over-thinking a straight-ahead rock show. He's not fond of stage "gimmicks," he notes, preferring his signature pose in which he sings with his head angled upwards toward a mike on a stand, hands clasped behind his back.

 

"I'm the only who's doing that - everyone's throwing moves and throwing their arms about," says Gallagher, slipping into another rant.

 

"I'm sick of all these. Everyone that's in a . . . band these days, as soon as they open their mouth their hands go up in the air. . . . They all think they're Jumping Jack Flash, man."

 

"When it's got to rock, it's got to rock and when it's got to chill, it's got to chill, man. And I'm pretty good at both, I think."

 

Oasis kicks off an eight-concert Canadian tour Wednesday with stops in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto, London, Ont., Ottawa and Montreal.
