Oasis Announced New Single, New Album

English rock band Oasis is set to return with a brand new album entitled Dig Out Your Soul, scheduled to release on October 6, under their own label Big Brother Recordings. The Shock Of The Lightning is announced to be their first single from the album, and will be out in stores on September 29.

This is their first release after last year's Lord Don't Slow Me Down single taken from their rockumentary by the same name.

“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,” commented Noel.

“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,” he added. (comments adapted from their official site.)
