Oasis premiered their new single recently, what do you guys think?
"Shock of the Lightening"
YouTube - (CD RIP) Oasis - Shock Of The Lightning


I think its pretty neat, interesting departure from Don't believe the truth.

That sounds great, rocks like golden era Oasis........drummer gets some action in middle solo section. A return to the past but when it sounds that good why not?

 

[subfocus]

I agree with Dark Angel ....
Great track!

A very welcome return to their former glories with this release. Can imagine how good this one would sound live.

Please, please, please let it be sensibly mastered!

Dude, it won't be. This is Oasis, and this is a 2008 rock release.

I was just reading about them the other day in one of my UK music rags (Uncut?), and how they just went through quite a process to pick the new drummer. I'm thinking it worked out well.

Good tune. I liked the last album better than anything they'd done in quite some time. From this initial peek, this one sounds like it may surpass that album.

Hot tune! I sorta gave up on Oasis after "Be Here Now", but this sounds quite nice. Any chance of a release on LP?

Oasis? Sensibly mastered? Thats like teaching an ostrich to drive an F1 car!

Okay,seriously,am I back in 1995? Who's turned back the clocks?

This track is absolutely mega! Oasis is back and firing on all cylinders,absolutely brilliant!

Have my Oasis music folder open going through back catalog again today

Sound quality is not a major issue for me with Oasis, they have a very feedback drenched washed out sound with kinda slurred vocal delivery so I just enjoy the atmosphere

 

[virometal]

Thanks for the heads up.

For me it sounded kind of canned after a couple listens. Maybe it will settle in, maybe not.

 

[Kui4ever]

It's nice, thanks!

 

[kickedinthesun]

Hadn't had a chance to hear this yet, thanks

 

[jilgiljongiljing]

Um...its ok, nothing great. I thought DBTT was fantastic, hope this album is just as consistent.

 

[sinisterm]

I didn't like it too much. Guess I was hoping too much out of it. Hopefully the album meets my expectations.

Got the full album last week and had a few listens now, no let down a very solid Oasis album all the way through with the usual mix of rockers, mid tempo, and a ballad or two. New drummer blends in nicely and Gallagher Bros are back in sync with that cocky swagger back......yesssssssss

I had a few John Lennon/Beatle flashbacks during listening sessions, and I mean that in the most complimentary of terms, I love Oasis even more with this comeback album
