Noel said in a radio program with Russel Brand that the album release date will be in November. And also includes a track called 'Instrumental 3' I can't tell if you are taking the piss but it sounds about 50% true. |

I kinda need this to be released this year. Otherwise we're seven years into this High Flying Birds project with only two albums and a couple of handfuls of (mostly shit) b-sides/bonus tracks/etc. to show for it. I was thinking, the other week: 'just how many Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds songs do I actually enjoy listening to?' I came to the conclusion "around twelve". I'll always follow Noel, wherever he decides to go, musically - but I can't lie, my interest is starting to wane now. I really do hope this next album is a fucking killer, and serves to prove me and other naysayers wrong - because time is getting on. |

You're such a bunch of Negative Nancies. Look on the bright side, even if the album's shit there's every chance you'll die before it comes out. |

You're such a bunch of Negative Nancies. Absolutely agree. Since im on this forum I really think 75% of the people here don't even like Oasis. Always complaining about every single song. "EVERYBODY NEEDS TO CALM DOWN!" |

When Noel says November, it means March.
He's old and confused.

Going by Noel's usual release pattern we can't be too far off the first single now? For some reason he likes to leave aeons between his first single and album release, I can see the announcement now:
Album due late November, first and only single before the album in May "because it's a summer tune" or something. Then the usual disastrous build up with one album track and a b side played on the radio but not officially released in good quality, a couple of awkward talk show performances and some forgotten song from the sessions 'accidently' leaked through Uzbekistani iTunes that turns out to be the best song of the lot.
I jest, but I remember the wait between TSOTL, Death of.., and Heat Of The Moment and their album releases being really, stupidly long. The hype and excitement dies down, that's natural for most radio friendly songs, you need to release the main album a week or two after, when people are still buzzing off of the first single

The Noel laziness saga is starting to become the new Liam's voice. At some point it becomes a "we get it."
I think just about everything has been said about the subject.

The Noel laziness saga is starting to become the new Liam's voice. At some point it becomes a "we get it." I think just about everything has been said about the subject. No where near the same thing. Liam's voice is shot to hell as compared to the 90s and 2000-2001. No way that's coming back and Liam can do nothing about it but shift to songs that don't require such a vicious range and attack. Whenever he sings a old Oasis song, it will be "well guess that's the best he can do at this point" or "sounds good for his voice these days". Noel's laziness isn't something that he can't stop. It's something that is just lame and unexcusable on Noel's part as a working artist. He has a vague work ethic that involves getting work done, then just putting it off for a while, or just scrapping things altogether. His peers like Thom Yorke (sorry for bringing up this analogy again, but it proves a point) constantly worked and released material they felt were quality enough to get out to a wider audience, instead of staying cooped up in a studio or just shelving concepts for years. If Noel had a consistenly exciting work ethic for his music we probably would've had the AA album, a Death in Vegas produced DBTT, and tons of more HFB by now, whether they be non-album Singles, EPs, what have you. No wonder Bono and Noel are friends - they both are just too damn lazy these days!  Also I'm not saying Noel's always been like this - the quick success and recording/release of the first three Oasis albums, along with the bevy of B-sides alongside them, shows how exciting his work ethic used to be. I assume in the 2000s as his relationship between himself and the band (particularly Liam) became more strained, and the band's descent into MOR rock, writer's block and etc. stunted his work ethic, and it has still continued into the solo era of his career. It's something he can change though, unlike Liam's voice. |

But I think you misunderstood my initial post. What I mean to say, is that everything on the subject has essentially been expelled already. When was the last time that there was a substantive ground breaking debate on Noel's laziness? Just about everyone has said what they have needed to say on the subject. At this point, it's everyone repeating and running around in circles. In that sense, it's exactly like the subject of Liam's voice. There's really nothing else to add that hasn't been said a million times already. It's become a discussion where you know who is going to say what and what it will end as. They're become easy discussions to checking out of. |

There's a Liam's voice topic in both rooms now, Liam's and Noel's.
Just saying, to save your time.

There's really nothing else to add that hasn't been said a million times already. It's become a discussion where you know who is going to say what and what it will end as. They're become easy discussions to checking out of. The constant pegging of his work ethic comes at the heel of people been fustrated of how he's been like this for so long. It's not like people are just going to say, "Ok Noel, we get it, you're a lazy bastard. We'll be quiet and discuss other things while we wait on the album you said is going to be something extremely interesting and different." And the bolded text is where I hope you can understand what makes people even more annoyed by the silence and waiting. Noel loves to come out and say new material is "right around the corner", following up with "it's definitely the best thing I've done" or "will be unexpected and something I've never tried before". When fans hear these things from him, there's no doubt people are intrigued to the max. When we found out David Holmes was producing and not let's say David Sardy, himself, or some MOR producer like Paul Epworth or Chris Potter, - we were highly intrigued. As of now, we've gotten no solid information on anything related to this album and by the time it comes out some of us are bracing that it will just be no different than what's he done in the past. When you're a fan of an artist and want new, interesting material - yet are refused it (like the AA sessions, no matter if it had been crap or not, would've been interesting to hear), you get disgruntled fans. Disgruntled fans take to forums and express themselves. Noel could easily rectify all of this and actually prove us wrong. Yet he continues not to do so. |

If I was a multimillionaire, lounging around in London touring with U2 etc I wouldn't be working my arse off to get it released quickly. He can do what the fuck he wants, he doesn't need to do fuck all. Is it laziness? Nah, it's having a life away from your work.

If you consider to take your passion to create 'work' and a chore to do, then it's not passion at all. My Bloody Valentine's 'Loveless' was a pain in the ass to finish according to all parties involved, but the passion for the material and that they believed so strongly in it is why we got it. If Noel considers LP3 to be "something I need to work on for the fans" instead of a passion project he believes in, then what is the point? I feel like this has been his narrative for a while. |

It just all reminds me too much of U2 themselves. It's been almost 3 years since Songs of Innocence, when Bono said that 'Experience' would be coming out right after it - a bit of a one-two punch. Since September 2014, they've constantly spouted that it's done or being wrapped up, putting 'finishing touches', then end up saying Trump delayed the album for us, and conveniently using the fact that it's the 30th anniversary of the Joshua Tree to start touring again, along with a reissue (keep in mind TJT got its anniversary celebration in the same fashion ten years ago as well). I'm just going to assume they don't give a shit anymore. |
