Regarding Nigel Godrich's production style: he is perfectly capable of simpler production and doesn't always swamp songs in dense, spacey layers. Listen to Radiohead's Hail to the Thief. The production is very straightforward, with the standard guitar, bass, drums, and vocals approach, with a few electronic flourishes here and there. Such a formula would probably work well for someone like Noel.

Oh yeah, one thing though, Noel: Please don't add fucking count-ins to EVERY song.

I'm guessing it'll be another 10 track album containing...
4 brilliant songs (1 or 2 mildly experimental) 4 Great songs (1 or 2 mildly experimental) 2 pretty good songs (1 mildly experimental)
And at least 2 or 3 of the 5 singles will come from the 'pretty good' or 'great' category!
Depending on how the experimental ones go down the next album will be slightly more experimental and released no earlier than 2020!

I've been begging for a Nigel Godrich produced acoustic album since 2003. If anything like this happens it will be a live thing most likely.

I wish he'd try to write a more psychedelic album, he's pretty good at that stuff. It'd be nice to change it up a little bit. Not quite Amorphous Androgynous psychedelic but something similar.

I predict his third album will be pushing the boundaries for how many guitar overdubs you can fit onto one album with an average songlength of 6 minutes and a free bag of cocaine for all pre orders.

I think this may the strongest of the three. He wont want another BHN like backlash on his hands so will fill it with quality, single worthy tracks.
I think because of this it wont be anywhere near as experimental as people might expect. Maybe a few The Right Stuff type tracks but overall in wont be 'Out There' like Noel keeps saying it will be.
I expect another solid 8/10 album.

It could be his best NGHFB 1 : leftovers tunes from Oasis that didn't fit on the "concept" of DOYS and DBTT NGHFB 2 : rushed record with his own demos polished + a test for "out there" music nicked to the AA ( ) + a few leftovers from Oasis again NGHFB 3 : massive songs saved for the last 10 years that he didn't use on purpose for Oasis, coz he was gonna go solo. back to the tunes and not the experimental record people think he's doing.

So it's like writing and recording as you go along, so there's no sitting down writing all the songs and then going to record them, you're kind of doing that in the studio, so that takes a lot longer, but the results at the moment are quite good." But you know, Noel is a f*** liar...

Chasing Yesterday was not experimental. Noel stretched himself a bit and where he did it mostly worked The Right Stuff being the shining example. I hope he goes further with the next one. No more IIHAG/TDOTL's please. The Right Stuff is shocking!! Easily one of the worst he's done solo

I just can't listen to it, I don't get the love and I never will...as you say, different strokes As for my feelings, I don't have any tbh. The first alum was amazing when it came out but I quickly got bored of it. CY was alright at first, then got better and now, I can't remember when I last listened to it...Even though I still think You Know We Can't Go Back, Dying Of The Light, Ballad Of The Mighty I and In The Heat Of The Moment to be the best of his solo career so far. So overall, I don't know what my feelings are so far, don't really know what to expect

Chasing Yesterday is decent enough.
But it's not an album you can go back to really.
So no, not great expectations for the 3rd.

"When your heart gets shattered and your jeans get frayed, and your baby sing the morning at the end of the day" C'mon Noel. That's weak.

I think The Right Stuff is quite possibly his best solo song, really sexy.

That's weak. I HATE that bit. It irks me because the entire song is just this chill affair that's building toward this musically beautiful "chorus" then solo, and when you get to that explosion, rather than getting what should be the best lyrics at the key moment of the song we get cliche dribble. Destroys what should really make the song, and it keeps it from being up there with his MG production.

I like "When your heart get shattered, and your jeans get frayed, and your happiness gets cast aside until your game it gets played." Anywhoe, I know I'm going to like Noel's next album, there are very few songs he's written that I don't like, but it's not going to change any of your lives so don't expect that, if you want spmething life changing go and listen to DM or MG.

Kind of disappointing to hear about some of the backlash about CY. It's a good record, and does have a few faults to it, but I think it's more consistent and better than any of the post-BHN records. I do concur that we don't need another WW rehash (like IIHAG, TDOTL), though. While IIHAG is a pretty tune, and TDOTL is alright, rehashing your biggest hit at nearly 50 years old just screams washed up to an outside observer, and I think that's completely false for Noel, as he did some good and exciting work on CY (TRS, Riverman, WTSRTS, BOTMI). Speaking of which, if we get another record like CY, but with a focus on more Noel-centered stuff (think of what we got with a lot of the HFB1 songs and the aforementioned four), we'll be in for a solid record with some really good songs. Hopefully this time, though, Noel chooses his singles better (still can't get over how Riverman was chose as a single before LATD AND over YKWCGB... )
