Oasis are free agents after their last album 'Heathen Chemistry' completed their contractual commitments to their record label.

The completion of their commitments mean the band is now free to shop around for a new deal .

Do you think Oasis should shop around or follow in the footsteps of other Indie giants such as Dave Mathews

Whats the bands current deal like? Are they with Sony or Big Brother? Some of their records have an RKID serial number - which labels that?

If i were them i`d find a label who`d pay shitloads, but would also put some effort and committment into the band.

Also, is it true that a certain percentage of singles released have to be written by Noel? I`d find that a bit hard to believe considering no other members of the band had wrote any songs before the deal was signed.

Anyone know the truth?

Make your money with exploitation
Make it holy illumination
Say a prayer at every station
Don't forget to ask for mercy
Make your money with a pretty face
Make it easy with product placement
Make it charged with controversy
I'm straight, I'm queer, I'm bi

it was SONY/EPIC in the states for HC.

But with its' release the bands' contract is now over. Oasis are already producing the whole package by themselves so I guess going Indie is the next logic step. It's not like SONY/EPIC went out of their way to promote them in the States. I think College Radio is pro Indie, it would do them good to catch that crowd with their next release...
I can't talk for the UK and rest of Europe but maybe someone can shed some light on how Oasis is promoted over in your part of the world

Shoutbox

themasterplanet: A Northern Soul by The Verve! My second favourite album by them. I love the atmosphere of it, it’s very dreamy and melancholic and dark. It holds many memories for me and I think that’s partly responsible for why I love it so much. Sept 6, 2024 18:57:34 GMT -5

AllOrNothing: Up in the Sky sounds like the La's on steroids, especially that Liam Falsetto that I can almost picture Lee Mavers singing with all his big teeth showing Sept 12, 2024 7:52:29 GMT -5

ennex: G'day folks, Sept 21, 2024 4:51:22 GMT -5

Bring It On Dan: I have so much shit on an old hard drive somewhere but I just cannot find it. Nothing 'out there' but probably 200 gigs or so. I can't remember the name of the site that had all the gigs listed and sources for loads of gigs next to it? I remember RKID 003. Sept 24, 2024 17:34:46 GMT -5

mimmihopps: Bring It On Dan, it must be sadsong.net. I don't know if the site still exists. Sept 25, 2024 7:20:44 GMT -5

gottabecrazy: RKID003 was a great resource, they shared a lot there there really. I wish something similar could be up again. Sept 25, 2024 17:50:23 GMT -5

PollyWantsACracker: Been off the site for over half a decade, good to see it still going strong after all these years. Good to be frickin back again eh. I thought of the place after hearing today from a friend that Oasis is back in business again. Sept 26, 2024 17:07:27 GMT -5

RUBIKON: I'm gonna restart the Oasis MP3 Archive is anyone's intersted in helping? I ran it in 2000 to 2002 and was a great site. Used to use mIRC to get all the boots. I'll build the site, just need links to one drives and files. PM me if you fancy helping out Sept 29, 2024 8:31:27 GMT -5
