I unironically think Liam’s songs are far far from the classics. Some are okay, but nothing touches LF, SA, C&A etc. And shittle James is Oasis’s worst song for me, by a significant margin. For one album, 10-11 tracks, make em all Noel’s please. Fine, but if LF, SA and C&A serve as the standard, Noel might as well not write another Oasis record ever again. Which might actually happen. I was replying to chubby flum who said Liam’s songs are up there with the classics. I still think lower tier Noel songs from the 00s are way above Liam’s songs too. Sad we got so few Noel written and Liam sung songs in Oasis’s last decade. Gimme a whole album now.

If Noel indeed saved songs for Oasis for the past 15 years, could it be the best record they will ever release ? Of course the magic of the early years wont be there. But it could be huge. It could be huge but nothing can top DM and MG. There's just so many classic songs. Even BHN cant be topped. It was a time and a place. A vibe they cant ever get back. But there could be a 11 huge songs album. Of course Noel will fuck this up and add 2 fillers on it, leaving great songs as bsides. Or give us remixes instead

Alright alright, I get what you mean Then I'd better hope for more than 1 albums then I just couldn't stop wishing that maybe Liam would mess with the guitar a little bit and Noel would say, "that's actually good!", just like the old days... I'm all about the brotherly love!

Liam doesn't really write anymore it seems. he's given up. So unless he's got a really good one in the vault, it wont happen.

Don’t we already know all the lyrics to Slow? Wasn’t it theorised that Slow was actually the written song “feeling like I think” from Noel’s notepad?

...because they've already recorded it? Apparently they didn't enter the studio because Noel has had a little help from Matt Morgan with the AI and they have succesfully generated the lyrics and music for the eight album in Matt's kitchen. AI has played all the instruments and an AI-modeled Liam sounds "biblical" according to Liam himself. Noel was happy with the process, commenting that he "could not be arsed" to get into studio just to fight with Liam whether or not the hoover should be louder in the mix. Debbie is planning to steal Noel's sock drawer just in case so that the album doesn't disappear into the void with DIV sessions, AA album and the scrapped 2000's B-sides collection. Or that's what I heard from a reliable source!

I'll say trolling. By all accounts, the reunion was only a done deal sometime in the last 7 weeks. So I doubt any album was discussed 4 months ago, especially not a date for recording. He’s been telling the truth for a while though in plain sight. (“Tuesday” / “finished as a solo arsetist” etc). Well, we'll find out eventually. I do hope they'll make new music, I've got a feeling they will.

Liam's tweet about November. It was tweeted in April. Who knows if they were talking or planning a reunion then. But November sounds like the ideal month to record an album if gigs are planned for July and August. I suspect Noel has the songs already.
Tease the album early 2025. Two or three singles in the run up. Album release just before the gigs. The setlist would still be the classics but maybe two from the new album.
That's my wishful thinking anyway 😂

Noel can still write brilliantly, and Liam can sing again.

Noel can still write brilliantly, and Liam can sing again. Even the Roses two new songs come about 4 years after the reunion. I always felt like those songs were put out because their tours were losing a bit of steam by the end. Of course they still sold tickets, but the promise of new material coincided with their upcoming tour, which ended up being the last. I think they knew there was never gonna be an album or a long term future by that point but just put 2 new songs out to fuel one last tour. I'm sure Oasis could never record again and sell plenty of tickets for years, but unless this tour is a one-off, then I expect they will make music. It just really comes down to what this is. Are they a band again? Or is it just an Oasis roadshow until the dates are fulfilled and that's it?. If its the former, I think we'll have new music within the next 12 months, even if it's a single or two right before the tour. If there's no signs of music before then, I'd say there's a high chance its just a tour and then they'll pack Oasis away until the next one.

My thoughts is that it was planned for months, even years. Liam doing that Squire album out of the blue, closing that solo albums cycle, just before the DM tour... I mean... that album sounds a lot like Oasis.
Noel getting back the whole Oasis catalog in 2025, MG anniversary. 2025 was the year or never.
The backbone of the next Oasis could even be recorded already, since Liam is not really needed.

Noel writes 10 good rock songs and Liam sings them all. No fillers. That's what I hope IF there's new music.

Btw, Damon Albarn said this a few months ago:
On the possibility of an Oasis reunion: “Well, of course they are gonna. The road is clear for them to do that now. I think that’s great. You know what I mean? Obviously I expect an excellent new record to accompany it." (He grins) via @consequence

The thing I hope for the most is an epic last song. I loved Soldier On, Let There Be Love made sense as a closer but nothing beats an It's Gettin' Better (Man!!) or Champagne Supernova-esque epic finale.

Look, I'm just going to come right out and say it...
... originally I would've written off a reunion if the purpose was only to do a few shows...
...but now I totally respect Noel and Liam for reuniting and only doing live shows for the "Live '25" tour. I only want them to make new Oasis material if it's quality and they've got something on their minds worth telling. I'd really struggle if anything they released now wasn't top notch and beyond. Imagine them coming back with DOYS at this point.

As long as the songwriters army is not involved, i'm happy. (And Noel goes back to the Oasis sound of course, not his boring guitars or late) A few months ago Noel was on a Paul Weller fans podcast and he said he's working on a new tune for his 'future album' that's so Jam-style he reckoned Weller was gonna be 'livid' was the word he used. I reckon that future album is Oasis. The podcaster said yesterday that he'd had to edit out where Noel gives away the reunion.

He planned the first 3 albums, so maybe this was the true "Masterplan" and he's been stockpiling the goodies... Either way just one or two, new (non AI) Oasis songs would be nice!

I don’t think we see any new music before the gigs. Noel will mention at some point he has songs that fit Liams voice etc. it doesn’t make sense for new music yet. These gigs are reunion gigs for all the classics. New music will follow though, no way Noel doesn’t have anything up his sleeve.

Will add it to the first post potential songs / references if so. 🙏
