Oasis have named their next album as 'Dig Out Your Soul', which will be released on October 6th via their own imprint Big Brother Records.
A week prior to the band's seventh studio record, lead single 'The Shock Of The Lightning' will be released on September 29th.
Producer Dave Sardy worked on 'Dig Out Your Soul', after last working with Oasis on their 2005 album Don't Believe The Truth. As previously reported, Abbey Road in London was where the new songs were recorded and mixing took place in Los Angeles.
Noel Gallagher tells the NME of the album: "I wanted to write music that had a groove; not songs that followed that traditional pattern of verse, chorus and middle eight."
"I wanted a sound that was more hypnotic; more driving. Songs that would draw you in, in a different way. Songs that you would maybe have to connect to � to feel."
Speaking of the single, Noel added: "If 'The Shock Of The Lightning' sounds instant and compelling to you, it's because it was written dead fast. And recorded dead fast."
"'The Shock of The Lightning' basically is the demo." added Gallagher. "And it has retained its energy. And there's a lot to be said for that, I think. The first time you record something is always the best."
