Noel Gallagher has already written and demoed Oasis's follow up to Dig
Out Your Soul. And, of course, it's "sickeningly good".
In an interview with London radio station XFM, Gallagher claims the
band's next album has been written on a miniature kids' drumkit in a
cupboard-sized studio.
Talking about Dig Out Your Soul track Get Off Your High Horse Lady, he
said: "There are another two songs that are really, really brilliant.
One called I Want To Live In A Dream In My Record Machine which is a big
Champagne Supernova, Stairway To Heaven-thing, which is amazing. And
another one called Come On It's Alright which has a 50-piece choir
singing the chorus on it."
I Want To Live In A Dream In My Record Machine found its way onto
YouTube a few months back and many fans expected the song to be on Dig
Out Your Soul.
"I wrote and demoed a full album while we were in the studio," Gallagher
continued. "While we were mixing the album in the studio we had another
studio that consisted of a cupboard and this little GarageBand thing in
the corner. We bought a miniature kids' drum kit and wrote another
record."
Gallagher added, typically modestly, that the new songs he's written are
sounding "sickeningly good".
"The new stuff is a proper concept. Have you heard Neil Young's
Greendale? I say it with a smile on my face because as I'm saying it,
I'm thinking: 'you pretentious c*nt'. It's all songs about characters
and all the songs will have titles and in brackets - it'll be 'AKA The
Shopkeeper'.
"I've got to say, they're sickeningly good. Dave Sardy (producer) was
freaking out saying: We should record these now."
Stop The Clocks - not to be confused with the Oasis hits compilation
album of the same name - is another Oasis song that has never been
officially released.
Despite the leaks of tracks from Dig Out Your Soul, the album sold
89,434 copies on its first day on sale in the UK (6 October), making it
one of 2008's fastest first-day sellers. It's almost certain to be
Number 1 in the UK chart on 12 October, the band's seventh Number 1
studio album in a row.
