They have some of the shittiest band Merch going on 20 years it seems. Band merch in general is bloody awful I’ve picked up some excellent band merch over the years. Aphex Twin chocolates, Death In Vegas lysergic rizzlas, the Rammstein dildo boxset*... X *Joking about the last one |

Indifferent. Is alright. Would be comfortably lost in a playlist of this genre. Meh.

Noel's going to have two types of albums out from now on. This type of music (I like it. The over reaction to it is unreal!) which is a bit more 'experimental' And then the more traditional stuff which will be Sardy-esque. I think he regrets not releasing the AA shit, and is now getting it out of his system. Noel, you can still release the AA shit. Just finish mixing it and put it on the HFB 10th anniversary bonus disc. You know I’m right. X |

I didn’t listen to the radio interview but I’m guessing there was no talk of this ep being part of a full album? Maybe we will get album info during the May 31 interview. My prediction is we won’t see a full album until February, after the U2 tour

I see some of y'all are still the same. Thankful that some of yall aren't artists, jesus some of y'all really do think 7 out 10 best albums of all time are from the Beatles. Open your eyes and ears folks, but more importantly subvert your expectations for what you demand from artists. They don't owe you shit. Life moves on, artists move on, you should grow too. It's actually kinda fun. I get this isn't the Noel you fell in love with in 94 at King Tuts, but I'm happy he isn't that coke snorting drunkard anymore, he'd be dead. I'm so glad Noel is maturing as a songwriter and artist as he is nearing 51. He could be dead, he could stop releasing music, but instead over the past decade and change he has really had a second golden age as an artist. I'm not asking anyone to like it who doesn't, but I am asking for some of you to have some perspective on this. Though he is my favorite songwriter of all-time, if you would have asked me 2006 (when I joined this forum) how I would have ranked Noel, Damon Albarn, and Thom Yorke in terms of critical, commercial, and cultural success. I woulda have ranked Noel last out of them, but in the 13 years since he has vaulted up to the top with consistent releases, while Thom's material is pretty forgettable and Damon needs to relearn the science of quality control. The song didn't blow my socks off, but I love Noel and I'm thankful for new Noel whenever I get it, even more impressed that the dude seems to be having more fun and being more liberal with his influences within his music in his 50's than he did in his 20's. Never thought a conservative guy like Noel would go down this path its fucking awesome. Sorry some of y'all are too old or not tall enough for this rollercoaster. Peace and love y'all. Good to read and see some old faces. You know who you are. I got news for ya, fans from that era are definitely an extreme minority on this forum. I was 13 when DM dropped, 37 now. |

Fort Knox was great. it's something different from his style, it's groovy, it gets you going, it sounds "new". same with TMWBTM or even The Right Stuff
all the other attempts at dance tracks sound like he's trying too hard to do something different and they end up like 80s pastiche. just not my cup of tea
he doesn't need to be miserable, broke, or coked up to write good songs. excuse me but I expect much more from NG, like a proper melody I could feel instead of starbucks background music

I've changed over 25 years like we all have and if noel wants to go in this direction then that's up to him, it just seems to me like he's ignoring what it is that makes him loved so much and what got him started, but then what do I know Nothing 'got Noel started'. Oasis/Noel/Liam etc - they started it themselves. They don't owe anybody anything. (Apart from The Real People). yeah,,, what you said lol |

This going into the studio and making it up on the fly isn't him, it's not his style of creating a song and it shows. He can do great dance tunes around melodies he's already written like Setting Sun. |

Yeah I'm talking about idealizing Noel in his prime as a songwriter, Oasis at their cultural zenith, and rock n' roll's impact on the zeitgeist. It's 2019. I'm glad Noel is living in it. He has never really been a contemporary artist (the closest he got is SOTSOG) even when he was in the biggest band in the world to become one this late in his career is pretty dope. |

Three EP's wow, next one apparently is very "Mancunian" Reminds me of what Aphex Twin has been doing just sticking out loads of EP's. I'm all for it.

This going into the studio and making it up on the fly isn't him, it's not his style of creating a song and it shows. He can do great dance tunes around melodies he's already written like Setting Sun. ...he wrote Setting Sun how many odd years ago? Here's my issue with the studio writing debate. It presupposes that if Noel shouldn't because he's better at _____. But Noel hasn't been a truly "great" songwriter for ages. Maybe. Just maybe. The issue isn't the method of writing, but the stage of his writing. Like, he could begin with a melody first and you're still gonna get The Mexican or even IIHAG. Is IIHAG, a "proper" melody (probably one of his more beautiful melodies) that much better than the stuff off of WBTM? I don't think so. Heck, IIHAG might be the most forced pastiche thing he's ever written. The issue is that Noel doesn't write songs that 9s or 10s anymore. No matter the method or the genre. He writes 7s and the occasional 8s. What some are saying is that we'd rather hear those 7s and occasinal 8s in a different style. And either people are down for the genre or not, but the quality hasn't fallen off a cliff like some are making it out to be, the style has just shifted. And the quality of what Noel is writing wouldn't change all that much, it'd just fit a style that some prefer more. |
