you hear me talkin’ hillbilly boy?? just smoking cigarettes and watching captain kangaroo.. play’m at the same time. happy sunday
so who gave editors the synthesizer?? really.. Editors’ new single “Papillon” is off their 3rd LP In This Light and On This Evening, and is without a doubt a departure from both The Back Room and An End Has a Start. the track propels Editors into the heavy synth and dance beat territory, which is yet to prove welcoming or not. Maybe a new sound will prove some magic as heard on The Back Room. maybe I’ll run into the band at a dive bar 80’s dance party. and maybe they’ll be partying with depeche mode… while interpol watches jealously in a corner?

soul singer kaye-ree “is bringing change by bridging the gap of old and new”, …that bridging of old and new is apparent on the persian-german songstress’ tune “reality”. kaye-ree’s contemporary r&b-informed (and just beautiful) melody is married to the track from cru’s 1997 classic “just another case”; a song itself that samples rhythm’s gorgeous 1976 r&b jam “the world is a place”. that said, it’s right clear to us that kaye-ree comes as advertised; displaying a great taste/feel/literacy for the music that’s come before her.
kaye-ree’s debut record “endless melody” is out now. props to soulbouncefor hipping us to her.

as much as we’ve grown to hate the term lo-fi for all of it’s contrived and consequently lo-quality contributions to the indie-music world, London’s Trailer Trash Tracys release “Candy Girl”, a solid yet such sounding new single on a double A-Side with “You Wish You Were Red” this September 14th. the song’s minimal hook latent arrangements showcase it’s most important strength… an incredible melody that sits perfectly within a sensible pop song.. excited for more to come from these guys

Dearly beloved, it is with a heavy heart and a sad face that I say this to you this morning.
As of last Friday the 28th August, I have been forced to leave the Manchester rock’n’roll pop group Oasis.
The details are not important and of too great a number to list. But I feel you have the right to know that the level of verbal and violent intimidation towards me, my family, friends and comrades has become intolerable. And the lack of support and understanding from my management and band mates has left me with no other option than to get me cape and seek pastures new.
I would like firstly to offer my apologies to them kids in Paris who’d paid money and waited all day to see us only to be let down AGAIN by the band. Apologies are probably not enough, I know, but I’m afraid it’s all I’ve got.
While I’m on the subject, I’d like to say to the good people of V Festival that experienced the same thing. Again, I can only apologise – although I don’t know why, it was nothing to do with me. I was match fit and ready to be brilliant. Alas, other people in the group weren’t up to it.
In closing I would like to thank all the Oasis fans, all over the world. The last 18 years have been truly, truly amazing (and I hate that word, but today is the one time I’ll deem it appropriate). A dream come true. I take with me glorious memories.
Now, if you’ll excuse me I have a family and a football team to indulge.
I’ll see you somewhere down the road. It’s been a fuckin’ pleasure.
Thanks very much.
Goodbye.

“Talk Tonight” was written after Noel Gallagher first left oasis during their ’94 US tour. they weren’t done then, or in 96′ when they started a tour in the states with liam house shopping back home with the misses, they weren’t done in 2000 when noel left the band during their world tour. and there’s more in between, but the point is.. are they actually done now?
hope not. as much slack as this band gets for not being what they were in the 90’s, they are simply one of few, a small handful of bands that can actually still hold it down as a relevant rock and roll band after almost 18 years. should they actually be over this time, it would be a shame. ok – to see noel do a non-accompanied solo tour, neil young style, would be mind blowing. a solo record would be incredible as well. but what wouldn’t be incredible is seeing oasis fall into the “reunion” band category. they’ll do it for the money, fuck the pistols did it, but it’s a sad and uninspiring moment for a band when shit like that happens.
so will another “talk tonight” come out of this break? hope so. it’s clearly one of noel’s best songs ever, and a b-side of course. does any band even have better b-sides than oasis?? either way, to see what happens with the big O in the near future will be an interesting course of events, at least to us. so we’ll keep you posted.
oasis pre-break ups. fookin’ guigsy, bonehead, mcCarroll.. broken up ever since?

noel, this is completely unacceptable:
“It’s with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer. Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz and Milan.”
noel, we know our kid can be a fookin’ wanker. we know. but, for real, ya fookin’ geezer, DO NOT BLOW IT!
