Oasis announce details of new album Dig Out Your Soul
Oasis have announced details of their new album set to be released later this year.
The band's seventh studio album will be entitled Dig Out Your Soul and is due to be released on October 6th.
The first single to be taken from the album will be The Shock Of The Lightning, out on September 29th.
Speaking about the album, recorded at Abbey Road studios, Noel Gallagher said: "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."
On the new single, the lead guitarist said: "If The Shock Of The Lightning sounds instant and compelling to you, it's because it was written dead fast. And recorded dead fast."
Dig Out Your Soul follows Don't Believe the Truth, released in 2005.
