Noel Gallagher Slams iTunes Culture

Noel Gallagher is not a happy bunny. For all you hoping to cherry pick what you want from the new Oasis album, Noel and co have a cunning plan....sort of.

Noel Gallagher spoke to Xfm about Oasis's new album 'Dig Out Your Soul', and he's not happy with you just picking your favourite tracks off iTunes:

He said: "I think it’s the first album we’ve ever made where we’re consciously not hanging a collection of songs around three songs, which is what seems to happen these days".

"That’s why all the songs fade into each other and there’s sound effects that join them all together. It was a conscious effort to say to people ‘Well, if you’re going to cherry pick songs off iTunes, you can have a few seconds either side of what you’re missing. It's a real album - ‘Get Off Your High Horse’ or 'Falling Down' don’t make sense if you haven’t heard the rest of the record".

Noel also added: "The new technology’s a great thing, but the 'album' has died a little bit. The reason people only want three songs off an album is 'cos most albums are shite."

To hear about every track on the album (so you can pick your faves!), take a look at our Oasis Track By Track.
