New Noel Gallagher single. It's a corker as usual.

Pretty okay song, but I was waiting for that big chorus that never came. It reminded me of "AKA... What A Life" in the verses with the danceable drum beat.

I'm sure it will grow on me.

I got a £15 iTunes card for Xmas so I bought all the singles so far. Deffo gonna get the deluxe cd edition since Freaky Teeth is a great song. Could have been a Bond theme.

In case you've not heard it.

a. ) Should be a single, not tucked away on the deluxe edition.

b. ) Should be a Bond Theme for sure.

Zydar · « **Reply #39 on:** January 16, 2015, 02:06:32 PM »

Yeah that was a better track.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #40 on:** February 24, 2015, 03:25:51 AM »

The new album is streaming on iTunes now for one week I assume as the CD is out on Monday.

Riverman is a nice opener.

Zydar · « **Reply #41 on:** February 24, 2015, 03:28:44 AM »

Nice, I'll give it a listen tonight.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #42 on:** February 24, 2015, 03:29:46 AM »

So far it's really different - even compared to the last album.

Kind of like how Standing On The Shoulder Of Giants could have sounded if they had spent more time on it.

Lots of weird guitar sounds and a sax solo !

I hope that's Noel playing that tasty solo on Track 1. It's one of the best solos he's put on record.

EDIT :

Wow - Lock All The Doors sounds like classic oasis.

Damn that new album's good! This year keeps getting better musically!

Kotowboy · « **Reply #44 on:** February 25, 2015, 04:17:36 AM »

I like the flanged out guitar solo on Girl With The X Ray Eyes. Sounds like something Mansun would do !

Zydar · « **Reply #45 on:** February 25, 2015, 04:45:57 AM »

I could only listen to a few songs on iTunes last night, I guess all the tracks are available if you pre-order?

I've no idea

It's out on Monday anyway.

Anyway I think its a good album. A couple of tracks are mainly just psychedelic jam tracks like the live version of Gas Panic! But that's cool. A couple of the

tracks sound like ...Morning Glory era oasis which makes me happy

Plus Freaky Teeth and Revolution Song are on the Deluxe Version.

Zydar · « **Reply #47 on:** February 25, 2015, 04:49:26 AM »

Have you heard all the tracks? Do you find it to be overall better than the debut?

Awesome, that's my favourite period.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #49 on:** February 25, 2015, 04:52:53 AM »

I just checked and it says you get all the songs immediately if you pre order.

Yeah " Lock All The Doors " and " Revolution Song " were written when he was in oasis and never used.

EDIT : The same as " Stop The Clocks " was on the previous album. I guess a good song is a good song.

It's not *quite* as consistent but there are some great tracks and a couple of more spacey psychedelic jam tracks.

But being Noel - there are some cracking songs on there like Lock All The Doors and Riverman.

dparrott · « **Reply #52 on:** February 25, 2015, 09:04:30 AM »

He did a final Revolution Song??? Wow, that's going way back.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #53 on:** February 25, 2015, 09:41:40 AM »

Yeah I remember hearing an old demo called Solve My Mystery.

Zydar · « **Reply #54 on:** February 25, 2015, 10:46:39 AM »

Holy crap! Lock All The Doors is kicking my ass right now. This is the Oasis/Noel I know and love.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #55 on:** February 25, 2015, 06:02:24 PM »

Yeah i'm so happy to hear that sound again.

I can't wait to buy the deluxe CD and have studio versions of Revolution Song & Freaky Teeth.

It's a great album. Parts of it are very Pink Floyd and sound like what SOTSOG should have been if they had the songs.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #56 on:** February 25, 2015, 06:28:35 PM »

For anyone that hasn't got iTunes. . . . ( but has got Spotify ). .

Lock All The Doors.

Me currently :

Kotowboy · « **Reply #57 on:** February 25, 2015, 06:34:07 PM »

If I Had a Gun made me tear up when I first heard it and now it's Lock All The Doors.

Damn You Noel !

Whereas Beady Eye were just f---ing hilarious. x)

Kotowboy · « **Reply #58 on:** February 26, 2015, 05:19:09 AM »

So. Just learned Lock All The Doors. Pretty easy. Once I figured out the song was in F - I was like " Capo 3rd fret Noel ?

".

I don't blame him for making the songs easy to play.

Playing guitar and singing at the same time is a pain in the arse.

Nice!

What are the chords, by the way?

Kotowboy · « **Reply #60 on:** February 26, 2015, 05:39:58 AM »

Capo : 3rd fret.

Verse : Bm. D. A.

Chorus : [D] Lock all the doors. [Bm] [A] Maybe you'll never find her. [G] I can be sure.... [D] ...This Time...

That's it pretty much

D - G - D - G for the end of the chorus back into the verse.

Zydar · « **Reply #61 on:** February 26, 2015, 05:40:51 AM »

Thanks! I'll be playing it tonight then

Kotowboy · « **Reply #62 on:** February 26, 2015, 05:45:17 AM »

I don't know if there's a third progression under the solo because I haven't tried it. I just solo over that part myself

Kotowboy · « **Reply #63 on:** February 26, 2015, 06:13:58 AM »

p.s. There's five tracks from the Deluxe Edition of the album on Spotify now.

Including Lock All The Doors and Revolution Song as the B-Side to Ballad Of The Mighty I.

Zydar · « **Reply #64 on:** February 28, 2015, 11:35:42 AM »

Okay, it's safe to say that this is the best of the two solo albums from Noel. For me it has more high points than the debut - Lock All The Doors, Riverman, You Know We Can't Go Back, plus a couple of the bonus tracks are all awesome songs. The Right Stuff sounds like it could have been on Shoulder Of Giants (a distant cousin to Who Feels Love?). Brilliant stuff.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #65 on:** February 28, 2015, 11:55:03 AM »

Plus Noel has really stepped up his solo game. The solo on Riverman is very David Gilmour-esque.

As far as I know it's Noel - he's only mentioned Johnny Marr being a guest on the album on Ballad Of The Mighty I.

Freaky Teeth is another one of those " Why isn't this on the main album ?!...No sod that - why isn't it a single ?!?! "

Yeah, I love that solo too. And Noel just can't write bad B sides

Kotowboy · « **Reply #67 on:** March 01, 2015, 05:22:36 PM »

So The Guardian said "Chasing Yesterday" is same old same old...

Yeah i'm tired of those sax solos that oasis had !

What are they talking about? Apart from Lock All The Doors - the new album sounds nothing like oasis and is even a departure from the first album.

They must mean " Noel singing and playing guitar AGAIN ".

If anything - the new songs sound more like Pink Floyd than oasis.

Oh and according to the album credits - there's no guest guitarist apart from Johnny Marr on Ballad Of The Mighty I.

Which means that nice Gilmour solo is all Noel

.

Kotowboy · « **Reply #68 on:** March 01, 2015, 05:26:50 PM »

" The Dying Of The Light " is beautiful. Probably the " If I Had A Gun " of this album.

Love the horns on " The Right Stuff ". Sounds very New York ? I see smoky bars somewhere in Brooklyn
