Oasis Album Tit Bits and DVD Teasers!
Don’t Believe The Truth runs to eleven tracks, and Noel has written five. That includes Let There Be Love; a defining moment in Oasis history. A song pulled back from over-production; one that sighs rather than shouts. Mucky Fingers – which sounds like nothing Noel has ever written before – is his trip on the Velvet Underground, fuelled by Jack Daniels and an old, beat up organ bought on e-bay. Then there’s Lyla, who is apparently ‘‘Sally’s sister’’, and The Importance Of Being Idle – a song so stark, so simple and so fundamentally Oasis, that it could have been a b-side in 1994. It’s that good.
When you hear Part of the Queue, you realise that ‘Noel Gallagher the songwriter’ has regained some truth. He's once again tackling the little things, and leaving the meaning of life to somebody who has the time to work it out. Three tunes are Liam’s, although he claims to have written over a hundred. What we do hear is the deafening ninety second Meaning of Soul which spits fifties rock ‘n’ roll blades at passers by, while Love Like A Bomb is a wistful daydream that he wrote with ‘‘Julie fucking Christie’’ in mind.
For the first time in their history, they are functioning as a band. The opening track on Don’t Believe The Truth is Andy Bell’s Turn Up The Sun, with it’s Midnight Cowboy intro that explodes into threatening, explosive rock ‘n’ roll. He also pops up with Keep the Dream Alive, a song inspired by a film called Stardust, starring David Essex. That leaves Gem’s A Bell Will Ring and another layer on an album full of different sounds.
Don’t Believe The Truth is truly the long awaited new album from Oasis, a band who now operate with the type of unity and passion usually reserved for the A-Team, on the trail of a group of Mexican cattle rustlers. Thankfully, though, some things will never change…
