That friend of ours may (or may not) have reason to celebrate next year when Oasis' new album "Dig Out Your Soul" will arrive on Guitar Hero World Tour as DLC with singles like "Bag it Up," "Waiting for the Rapture" and "The Shock of the Lightning."
But the more we think about it we're pretty sure it was Blur. ... Yeah, yeah it was Blur.

I don't know anyone who likes Oasis!
Haggard @ Oct 17th 2008 1:32PM
As a resident of Manchester, England (where they're from), I can't start a conversation with anyone here who doesn't immediately profess their undying love for Oasis.
As for me, well, I think they're crap.

Oasis? Wait, they are still around? I thought for sure with the rampant egos running around in that band that they'd have broken up a LONG time ago.

they did....several times. i can't even listen to their older stuff anymore. i used to love me some oasis, back before i discovered there was music other than what's on the radio.
JPWasko @ Oct 17th 2008 1:13PM
Oasis still has a massive amount of fans... mostly outside the states. Just search one of their live performances on youtube and you'll find brilliant comments like "OASIS R FUCKIN' ACES!".
mutd1999 @ Oct 17th 2008 1:11PM
Oasis needs to fucking disappear already.
DCBlack @ Oct 17th 2008 1:15PM
I like 2 or 3 of their songs, which I already bought in RB. Looks like once again GHWT is copying RB's concept of making whole albums available, and yet not doing quite as well. I don't mean that to sound fanboyish...Well, maybe it'll net them some profit in the UK.

OASIS?! DON'T WRITE any songs, I'm serious!
Don't give me that look!

I was literally just about to post this exact same thing.
OWENR22 @ Oct 17th 2008 1:21PM
Well the album just went straight to the top of the charts last sunday, so people obviously like them. Me included.
OhJustSomeRandomGuy @ Oct 17th 2008 1:26PM
You people should try actually listening to the album before just chuckling at it.

Ugh, the album isn't that great. And certainly not worth waiting til next year to play.
Why can't they do Morning Glory instead?
Kellydude025 @ Oct 17th 2008 4:34PM
because they are trying to push the sales of their new album...
which is dumb cause they could just as easily push the sales of their old album :(
kervin @ Oct 17th 2008 10:48PM
this guy is right Activision put in morning glory instead you would get so many more downloads.
Jakka @ Oct 17th 2008 1:34PM
If this was in Rock Band, all the fanboys would piss themselves.But it isn't THUS IT SUCKS!
VaultICEE @ Oct 17th 2008 2:10PM
Seriously Jakka, every Rock Band or Guitar Hero thread I see you post in, you're complaining.
Just shut up.
baby sea tuna @ Oct 17th 2008 2:21PM
For real. Stop being a dope.
Vcize @ Oct 17th 2008 2:32PM
Kind of like how in every thread that can in some way be referenced back to GH there are a million RB fanboys doing the same thing? And yes, literally, 1 million.

"Hi I am Liam Gallagher,
And my face is too pretty to be featured in this game, but go ed' an use me songs...
*condescendingly waves you off*
Go on!.."
Top Cat @ Oct 17th 2008 1:40PM
Blur > Oasis
Joe @ Oct 17th 2008 1:44PM
I think it's actually one of their best albums.
Monkeydog @ Oct 17th 2008 1:53PM
bleh. Dig Out Your Soul isn't that great.
(What's The Story) Morning Glory or Definitely Maybe would be better.
Or instead of Oasis having some Blur (Parklife, Blur) or Radiohead (OK Computer, In Rainbows).
Psycho300x @ Oct 17th 2008 1:53PM
Oasis has dried up, they need to go away now.
VaultICEE @ Oct 17th 2008 2:11PM
I love Oasis (i know, i know), but their new album has nothing on their old stuff.
To me, Activision is going in the wrong direction if they want to compete with Rock Band, but then again, I don't know how well it will sell. I guess we'll find out.
Hafk @ Oct 17th 2008 3:33PM
First, Guitar Hero releases expansion games, now they are releasing full album DLC.... according to you, both are the wrong direction.
Tell me, what is this other direction that you want Guitar Hero to go?
VaultICEE @ Oct 17th 2008 7:12PM
What I meant is Guitar Hero's album DLC have been less than stellar. Both this Oasis album and Death Magnetic are imo not very good.
If Activision were to release, say, Master of Puppets or (What's the Story) Morning Glory, I could almost guarantee the sales would be higher.
It doesn't matter to me in particular though - I'll stick with Rock Band.
Von Dozier @ Oct 17th 2008 2:13PM
Aw, look at Guitar Hero, trying to mimic it's bigger succesful brother Rock Band.
Chris @ Oct 17th 2008 2:55PM
Oasis are still awesome. I'm going to see them in Chicago in December.
Iridium @ Oct 17th 2008 3:12PM
Even a bad Oasis album is better than half the crap today. iTunes killed the album. Too many artits just try to make one good song and forget how to make 10 or 11 good tracks.
Please bring back the '90s. Best music of the past 30 years.
Blur sucks. They had a couple good tracks but under Gorrilaz the band is far better.
Monkeydog @ Oct 17th 2008 3:19PM
Blur =/= Gorillaz.
It's only Albarn's project. No Coxon, James, or Rowntree.
And I have to quite disagree in the statement that Blur sucks. Parklife, Blur, Modern Life is Rubish, Think Tank, The Great Escape, all wonderful albums.
Plus they have Milky, nothing is better than Milky.

"Please bring back the '90s. Best music of the past 30 years.

You do realize that Blur was in the 90s and Gorillaz is from the new millenium, right? ^_^
Anyway, Oasis is okay - but Blur is way better.
Colinohyeah17 @ Oct 17th 2008 3:28PM
If they didn't try to be the Beatles so much, or keep saying they're better then Radiohead and when asked why, saying BECAUSE!!!
Jakka @ Oct 17th 2008 4:51PM
You don't know much about Britpop, huh? Ripping of Beatles and The Who is the main principle of the genre.
Colinohyeah17 @ Oct 17th 2008 11:58PM
But COME ON, Oasis sounds EXACTLY like they're trying to be a Beatles cover band and it's pretty ridiculous.... And their cover of 'I Am The Walrus' is horrible.....
JoeTheBlow @ Oct 17th 2008 3:57PM
Its a decent album.
However, "Whats the story (morning glory)", and "Definately Maybe" would be FUCKING HUGE!
I dread to think how much i'd be willing to pay to play those albums.
Xtian @ Oct 17th 2008 6:38PM
I think I'm that guy, I love Oasis. They're the best band in the world!
tbonespop @ Oct 17th 2008 9:08PM
This is great freakin' news! This band is truly one of the finest walking the earth at this time. Those of you who allow the radio/Clear Channel/tv forces to select your music for you are the ones that don't understand the quality of their music. Before you start slamming a band (due to stories in the press or things someone told you about them) that you're vaguely aware of, listen to the music. There's a reason these guys are worldwide stars and adored around the globe. The fact that they don't always play nice with the U.S. music press has a lot to do with them not getting the attention they deserve in this country. Let the music do the talking.
kervin @ Oct 17th 2008 10:49PM
oh great another new album first metalica now oasis new album this stinks. well i gess its not all bad but still what about morning glory? this is there best.
Stevie Dunbar @ Oct 17th 2008 10:58PM
For the record, Dig Out Your Soul went to #5 on the US charts and straight to the top of the UK and world charts with over 300k+ in it's first week. And they have a sold out tour in the UK and America this year; just played to 120,000 fans at Wembley Arena the past two nights and just announced their biggest UK stadium tour for next year.
So yeah, they've got a bit of fans. Just a little bit.

morningmatters @ Oct 18th 2008 12:47AM
I am not sure about rest of the world but the music industry here in the US is a joke. A few companies which own all of the radio stations take bribes/payola from large labels and play the same rotations 24-7. MTV (which owns RB) is part of this same system. Actvision (which owns guitar hero) is trying to get into this industry.
Guitar Hero and RB could of made their mark as vehicles to launch independent artists. Harmonix, the company behind both GH and RB used to do that well, but MTV just had to ruin it all for the mighty dollar.
