They're not out yet. At least not in a format worth downloading. Although, the fact that you said Kazaa speaks volumes ;)
 
There`s loads of fakes flying around, so I wouldn`t get your hopes up, songs have leaked (and burnt to cd and played on stereo sound suprisingly good despite the average quality) but they are hard to get hold of now.

Tried that, don`t know any news servers, never mind, it all comes onto torrent in the end ;)
 
cool, i havent seen the album cover yet. let us know of any more news.
 
Er, do Oasis make good music these days? I stopped paying attention in about 1997 or so...
 
Few clips from NME (video), with segments of songs from 'Don't Believe The Truth' playing in the background:

I don't listen to Oasis at all, but I heard someone say that they're just pumping out crap to nowadays finish up their contract with Sony.

But I didn't say that :P

But Oasis didn't write Keep the Dream Alive, Andy Bell ex Hurricaine #1 did.

Edit: Here's links to the video's NME was dumb enough to upload, but didn't add links to:

Major DBTT spoilers within :) Basically has samples of each track playing behind the videos

Er......remind me again what band Andy Bell is in now......Yes Oasis, which makes it an Oasis song.
 
craig said:
What does that even mean?

BTW, someone patched Meaning of Soul so it now sounds fine. Still a pap song tho.

Hmmm, I like it
 
Just got hold of "I Can See It Now", whcih is one of the Japanese bonus tracks on DBTT, kinda instrumental, but with a little bit of vocals.

Really don`t know what to make of it.

yeah, I got that a couple of days ago. I like the beat and if they had some beatles esque nah nah nah'ing over it like in All around the world I reckon it would have sounded mint... maybe a solo here and there. not really a fan of instrumentals like this one on the whole though.

Have to say it`s grown on me, but yeah, really could use some vocals.

Not sure about that, I thought he kinda looked like a t**t, Liam`s really the only one who can get away with it for me.
 
very true. liam never looks out of place in them.

Like in my avatar. He may be a bit of a twat, but he personifies 'rock'

You gotta admit though, some of the stuff he comes out with is priceless. The latest being that Franz Ferdinand is really Right Said Fred on the Atkins Diet :D

BTW, just gold hold of Eyeball Tickler full version, gonna be a B-Side to Lyla, sounds amazing, Top song! :D

Heh, you're always about a day behind me in getting Oasis songs lol. I like it.. good song from GEM. has a very good 50s feel to it. Must say tho it needed a lot more breaks it was just the same chords and rythm repeated over for the first 90 seconds. Needed to break to the "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...." bit quicker and more often.

Nah, had both Eyeball Tickler and I Can See It Now a day before I posted it on here :D

I thought it was great without any breaks, reminds me of Headshrinker, bringing Oasis back to the fast track rock songs and away from the Ballads (although I lick it when they do both) :D

I just wish they'd do more solos in songs. Watching Noel in the webcast the other day in the bit where he basically said something along the lines of 'I've been trying to do the live forever solo properly live for the last 4 years and not got it right once' kinda made me think... at Glasto 95 he did it well enough, so what's changed.. and why did every Oasis rocker go from having a solo to basically just a 1 note "de ner ner nerrrrr" bit.. Gem's clearly the superior guitarist of the two, so why doesn't he take over solo duty.. just bring them back!!

Well, according to Q magazine they don`t need them, not that I`ve ever listened to what the **** Q says, but they gave the new album 4/5 stars, considering Heathen Chemistry got 2/5 this really could be good news. ;)

I read the review... It's okay I guess, but Q are twats and they did basically say that although liams songs are alright they're nowhere near as good as Noels and that cos' Noel wrote less than half of the tracks it suffered cos of it.

Just got the tracks from the Lyla single in good quality.

They're defo going back in the right direction, but the songs are way too short, way too samey from start to end (not much of a chorus, bridge, or middle 8 in either b-side for example)... both 2 minutes and 48 seconds too :| very curious!

Got them too, but too samey??????????

I can`t think of 3 songs that have more variation between them, I think that these songs are the best that they have put out since MG, they are all different from eachother, I think the length is fine.

I guess it`s basically a case of you can`t please everyone.

Also, so far from what I`ve heard of the album tracks, Noels songs are better, but Liams are still excellent (well, from the clips I`ve heard anyway)

I just can`t wait to get my grubby mits on the album :-)
