It wouldn't suprise me if his next album get scrapped because of a reunion for a band called 'Oasis' So fucking bored of hearing people speculate/hope that there'll be an Oasis reunion. Until Noel and Liam both say that they're reuniting, I don't listen to bullshit

I'm so used to the usual 3,4 years wait for the new POTATO release that i actually think it's too early.

as Ive said before, Noel stated that "once the stone roses got back together, no-one talked about them anymore", Noel knows the oasis reunion talk keeps him in the news etc and in turn it generates some interest in his solo work, he might even like the idea people keep clamoring for it, once oasis do get back together then thats it, people wont be as interested anymore because theyve done it.
Noel might do it one day as his retirement tour when he wants to stop touring, no-one can deny Noel will get a grander send off in oasis than doing one last lap in HFB.
until then it wont happen and might not even happen then.

That is actually a good point. Add to that the fact that a new Oasis album would almost definitely be disappointing - LAG would contribute some BDI level songs, Noel would write a few HFB tunes which would probably be good... but for most people it would be disappointing simply because expectations have built up so much. People remember Oasis nostalgically now, as the band they were at their best. The Stone Roses reunion is the best example for that - they sold out a few shows, vanished from the news, now they're getting tons of flak for a predictably subpar single. Makes Noel's talk of doing a series of gigs but no album with Oasis in case of a reunion seem pretty reasonable really.

Makes Noel's talk of doing a series of gigs but no album with Oasis in case of a reunion seem pretty reasonable really. I said on here not long ago that if you go on youtube an watch any peak show, whether it being maine road, earls court etc theres people in the comments saying "we need a reunion now", yet you dont see the same comments in the 2008/2009 shows, the split has probably repaired some of their legendary status tbh. people seem to think if oasis got back together, a magic combustion will happen and Liam will be singing like the 90s again and Noel will be writing live forever 2.0, when in reality its probably going to be closer to those later shows in terms of setlist and feel, Liams voice might be abit better buts its not going to be 90s quality. people have a short attention span, they want what they cant have, once oasis reunites it will become "been there done that", I can see why Noel doesnt want it and he even said "I dont want people to watch us and say "you shouldve seen them back then"" and really thats what oasis was for the best part of 6/7 years. if Liam can rise to the occasion then I expect a few shows will probably do a decent job of managing that hype (and nostalgia will probably carry that) but a new album probably wont go the same way.

If Oasis will do an new album, which they will, Noel will write all the songs, maybe Liam one, but no way Andy and Gem will write songs on a reunion album. I don't even think Andy will be part of a possible reunion...

This re: Andy I think if they do even do a reunion at all it will be an end of career move for both Liam and Noel, with either ex-members making guest appearances or simply the two brothers plus hired hands for a final grand looting before they retire from the live circuit and possibly music in general.

An Oasis reunion would be a disaster. Noel's bored and Liam's voice sounds like a chainsaw these days.
Some folk don't want to face reality - we're not gonna live forever and the only thing a reunion will do is make us yearn for our younger selves. And on that happy note, good night!

An Oasis reunion would jump us all right back into the 2000 to 2009 era of the band. That was average to good but not great. They always left me wanting more and not in the way a good movie or book ends on a cliffhanger. I want more in the sense that they should be making a better overall product.

If a reunion happens, I hope everyone can agree that Noel should be the sole songwriter for all of the album tracks. If they want to throw some Liam tracks on as b sides to single, then fine. But Noel should write the main tracks.

Given album sales have fallen off a cliff in general since Oasis last had one out I would assume any reunion would be a 'Greatest Hits Tour' only affair (i.e. pretty much DM & WTSMG? era material), although if they did go down the album route I am certain it would be a Noel led affair with the odd appeasement to Liam regarding songwriting.

Feel much the same about a lot of Noel's solo stuff though, to be honest. At least with Oasis coming back, Liam'd have a chance to get off his arse and be Liam Gallagher again. But really, I think it's all pretty pointless talking about it now anyway. Going off interviews and snatches we've heard from people who actually know them, I think the Gallagher's relationship has devolved too far now, so that there's probably next to no chance of them being able to tolerate being in a band with one another again.

Ok everyone, time to place bets!
How many times will we be discussing an Oasis reunion until a release date for Noel's album is announced? I say 26!
How many pages long will this thread be when we finally hear the aforementioned announcement? I say 58!

I will always prefer an album stock full of Noel written tunes than one divided up among 3-4 writers. That seriously diluted the strength of the band.

Beady Eye partly failed because of an abundance of poor songwriting. I would hope by now Liam would agree. Oasis was at their best with Noel writing the songs and Liam belting them out. That's the great dynamic of the band. That's Oasis. That's rock n roll mister!

Yes, I felt exactly the same. It's simple, if 8 years ago towards the end Noel had written the whole album and Liam belting most of them out - like it was - then there would be much much more clamouring for a reunion right now.

I will always prefer an album stock full of Noel written tunes than one divided up among 3-4 writers. That seriously diluted the strength of the band. Obviously. I'm not arguing with you there, I'm just saying that Noel's solo stuff has largely, for me, kept on 2000s Oasis's thing of being pretty good a lot of the time, but never genuinely great - and also slipping into downright mediocre far too often. And anyway, there's no telling if Oasis came back LAG would definitely have a song on a future album. Gem and Andy might not even be there. And Liam seems to have lost a lot of what little faith he had in his songwriting.

Seeing as we're intrigued by the David Holmes collab, just had a thought that's never occurred to me in the years I've listened to Oasis.
Imagine if... (don't worry, this is a good one) Falling Down had been produced by Death In Vegas? Pretty neat eh?! Wouldn't mind seeing a few of these kind of songs from Noel again - under the helm of a top producer though. Such heavy dark hypnotic rhythms should have pointed towards a more general direction for Noel after 2008.

The deal would be noel writes majority of songs...and liams voice would be best its been in years..a lacklustre album??noel is writing some of his finest stuff in years and beady eye were getting there but i dont think that would be the line up..and nobody as wrote a tune like live forever since ,infact not many have wrote better than that track ever so dont compare

2018 / 2019.
If we have two albums from the Gallagher's on 31 December 2017 we should be very happy.
