OASIS ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM AND SINGLE DETAILS!
7 March 2005
On May 16th 2005 Oasis return with a brand new single entitled ‘Lyla’. The track is taken from the band’s hugely anticipated new album entitled ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’, which follows two weeks later on May 30th on Big Brother Recordings.
Noel Gallagher believes that ‘Lyla’ is a true Oasis classic. ''It's The Who. ‘Lyla’ was specifically designed for pogoing. We wrote 66 tracks and ‘Lyla’ was one that we revisited late on and it's ended up on the album. I’m happy with every track on the album.”
‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ is the sixth Oasis studio album – their first since the number one multi-million selling ‘Heathen Chemistry’, released in 2002.
Crowning what will be an extraordinary 2005, Oasis will embark on an extensive world tour that includes nine huge shows in the UK – including seven stadium gigs. Tickets for these dates sold out in record time, even challenging the speed with which they sold out their legendary Knebworth shows of 1996. Oasis have just added shows in Newcastle and Ireland in the face of phenomenal demand. Further UK and European dates to be announced soon.
I know I'm looking forward to it. Some people didn't care for Heathen Chemistry, but I liked it much better than Standing on the Shoulder of Giants (which was, relatively speaking, a Noel solo album with Liam doing most lyrics).
Also I'm hoping that there will be some top-notch b-sides from those 66 tracks they wrote.
