Posted June 20, 200718 yr Oasis to start recording new album Noel Gallagher says the band will hit the studio very soon NME.com Oasis are to start work on their seventh studio album on July 3. Guitarist Noel Gallagher has named the date when the band will be recording a follow-up to 2005's 'Don't Believe The Truth'. "The songs are written... but don't hold your breath because the last album took three-and-half-years and three goes," he told BBC News. "It would be great if it was done by the end of the year and we could get out on the road by next summer, but that's insane wishful thinking." Previously the guitarist has told NME.COM that this album will be more experimental than Oasis' more recent efforts. "For the next record I really fancy doing, you know, a record where we just completely throw the kitchen sink at it," Gallagher declared. "We haven't done that since 'Be Here Now' (in 1997)... get like a 100 piece orchestra and choirs and all that. "I think since 'Standing on the Shoulders of Giants' (2000) we've been trying to prove a point of just bass, drums, guitar and vocals and nothing fancy. But I kind of fancy, like, making an absolutely f***ing colossal album. You know? Like literally two orchestras, stuff like that."

The 40-year-old will be talking to the music man - whose credits include the Spider-Man 3 and Casino Royale soundtracks and studio collections for Wolfmother and Jet - about the follow-up to Don't Believe The Truth. The Oasis singer told the Daily Star: "We start talking about the new album on Friday. I've got 17 songs ready, everybody else has three each. F*** knows when it will be out - 2010. Don't hold your breath." The 40-year was snapped partying at the Mojo Awards earlier this week with his pregnant girlfriend Sara MacDonald. He joked the duo had been discussing names for the baby. "I'm thinking Genghis, Gandhi or Goliath for the kid. Something with a G has got a ring to it," he laughed.
