On This Day In Oasis History...

"Roll With It" is a song by British rock band Oasis written by their lead guitarist Noel Gallagher. It was released 14 August 1995 as the second single from their second album (What's the Story) Morning Glory, reaching #2 in the UK Singles Chart (see 1995 in British music).

"Roll With It" received a great deal of attention when Food Records, the label of chief Britpop rivals Blur, moved the original release date of single "Country House" to clash with it, sparking what came to be known as "The Battle of Britpop". The British media had already reported an intense rivalry between the two bands and this clash of releases was seen as a battle for the number one spot. The media sensation was spurred on by verbal attacks from the respective camps (in particular Noel and Liam Gallagher, Damon Albarn and Alex James), that extended beyond the music industry to the point where the two bands were regularly mentioned on the evening news. In particular, public imagination was sparked by the contrast between the gritty, working class Oasis and the artsy, middle class Blur. In the end, Blur's "Country House" single sold 274,000 copies to Oasis' 216,000 copies of "Roll with It". The singles charted at number 1 and number 2 respectively however many believe Blur won tactically selling their single for £1.99 compared to Oasis £3.99 single price.



In the week of its release, Damon Albarn was asked what he thought of the song. He dubbed the band as "Quoasis" and sang "Down, down, deeper and down" in reference of the song's likeness to Status Quo's 1975 hit Down Down [1]. At this time in their careers Oasis were often criticised for 'borrowing' samples from 60s and 70s bands; this was one such song containing 'borrowed' music.

The song is like several other songs, such as "Supersonic", in that preaches the importance of being yourself. Due to its combination of a catchy tune and positive lyrics, the song ranks amongst Oasis' most popular songs and is a standard at their live performances. Noel Gallagher does not like the song at all however, and described it in a 2005 interview as "appalling".

Trivia

The song was featured on All-Star Family Fortunes aired 23rd December 2006.

In the live performance on the Familiar to Millions DVD, Liam Gallagher changes the lyrics from "don't let anybody get in your way" to "don't let any fucker get in your way".

The cover photograph was taken at the beach in Weston-super-Mare. The five television sets the band members are looking at are shown on the inner sleeve, and feature Ian Botham (watched by Guigsy), Noel Gallagher from the "Cigarettes & Alcohol" music video, snooker player Alex Higgins (after winning the World Snooker Championship in 1981), Peter Sellers in a scene from The Party, and the Who's Keith Moon.

Jay-Z's Attack On Noel Gallagher 'Jockin Jay-Z' Leaks In Full Online

The final edit of 'Jockin Jay-Z', the first track from US rapper Jay-Z's forthcoming Blueprint 3 album, has leaked in full online.

The song, which has been produced by Kanye West, was aired for the first time last week when Jay-Z joined West on stage in New York.

The finished version of the track includes Jay-Z's attack on Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher, where he raps: "That bloke from Oasis said I couldn't play guitar/Somebody should have told him I'm a fuckin' rock star."

He then mocks the Oasis track 'Wonderwall', singing: "Today is gonna be the day that I'm gonna throw it back to you.”

The rapper also voices his support for US democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama in the song.

West is one of a number of producers who are expected to contribute to Blueprint 3, which is due to be released next year.

As previously reported on Gigwise, Timbaland recently suggested that he was behind the whole production.

But Jay-Z played down Timbaland's comments, calling them “premature” in an interview with Rolling Stone.

Liam Gallagher’s River Dance

The second single from the next Oasis album will be Liam Gallagher's ode to John Lennon called I’m Outta Time.

It’s been picked to be the second release from forthcoming CD Dig Out Your Soul.

Liam has been making a splash in sleepy Cotswolds village Bourton-on-the-Water while making the promo for the song.

Part of the filming involved him wading through a river strapped to a parachute. Liam’s ballad is obviously so moving only getting waist-deep in cold water would do it justice.

He was overheard saying: “I wish I hadn’t written this music now.”

Even Noel has been raving about Liam’s songwriting contributions on the new album and has put his money where his mouth is by giving him the second single slot.

The first single from the collection will be The Shock Of The Lightning, out on September 29.

The Shock Of The Lightning - Single Details

Oasis return with the first single from their forthcoming seventh studio album, ‘Dig Out Your Soul’ on 29th September. ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’, is regarded by principal song-writer Noel Gallagher as one of the band’s most instant songs “because it was written dead fast. And recorded dead fast. ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ basically is the demo. And it has retained its energy. And there’s a lot to be said for that, I think. The first time you record something is always the best.”

The eagerly awaited new album is released on 6th October on the band’s own Big Brother label across the world.

The B-side to the single is the sought after Chemical Brothers remix of ‘Falling Down’, another song from ‘Dig Out Your Soul’. The Chemical Brothers remix is a psychedelic, acid-tinged take of the track which has been climbing club and radio charts after Big Brother sent it to a handful of DJ’s around the world.

This is the first time an Oasis single has been backed with a remix and fans purchasing downloads of ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ via the band’s own web site at Oasisinet or www.itunes.co.uk will also have the option of buying the video for the single. This is only available via those two web portals.

A strictly limited edition 7" vinyl collector’s box will be made available separately for fans from both Oasisinet.com and select retailers to enable fans to collect all the 7" singles from the forthcoming album campaign.

All formats are as follows:

CD: ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ / ‘Falling Down’ (Chemical Brothers remix)

7”: ‘The Shock Of The Lightning’ / ‘Falling Down’ (Chemical Brothers remix)

Happy Birthday Andy Bell

Andrew Piran Bell (born 11 August 1970 in Cardiff, Wales) is a Welsh musician, and former member of the early 1990s shoegazing band, Ride, and later, Hurricane #1. He currently plays bass guitar and is a songwriter for Oasis. However, on latest albums, the band have taken less clearly defined roles and Bell was able to contribute guitar on his tunes.

Ride

Bell formed Ride with Mark Gardener (guitarist), who he met at Cheney School in Oxford and Laurence Colbert (drummer) and Steve Queralt (bassist), who he met doing Foundation Studies in Art and Design at Banbury in 1988. While still at Banbury the band produced a tape demo including the tracks "Chelsea Girl" and "Drive Blind". In February 1989 "Ride" were asked to stand in for a cancelled student union gig at Oxford Poly that brought them to the attention of Alan McGee. After supporting The Soup Dragons in 1989 McGee signed them to Creation Records.

With Ride, Bell released three EPs between January and September 1990, entitled "Ride", "Play" and "Fall". While the EP's were not chart successes, enough critical praise was received to make Ride the "darlings" of music journalists. The first two EPs were eventually released together as Smile in 1992, while the "Fall" EP was incorporated into their first LP, Nowhere, released in October 1990, which was hailed as a critical success and the media dubbed Ride "The brightest hope" for 1991. This was followed in March 1992 with Going Blank Again. The twin rhythm guitars of Bell and Gardener, both distorted, both using Wah-wah pedals and both feeding back on each other was seen as the highlight of the album's critical and chart success.

Despite having a solid fanbase and some mainstream success, the lack of a breakthrough contributed to inter-band tension, especially between Gardener and Bell. Their third LP, Carnival of Light, was released in 1994, after shoegazing had given way to Britpop. Carnival of Light was oriented towards this new sound, but sales were sluggish and the shift in musical tastes devastated much of their original audience. The band were joined at Creation Records by Oasis, who shot to fame in 1994 with their groundbreaking debut Definitely Maybe. As label mates, Bell came to know the bands Gallagher brothers quite well and often shared in their partying, if not their success.

1995 saw the dissolution of the band while recording fourth album Tarantula due to creative and personal tensions between Gardener and Bell. The track listing of Carnival of Light gives an indication of the tension that was mounting between the two guitarists, with the first half of the album being songs written by Gardener and the last half of the album being songs written by Bell - one or both had refused to let their songs be interspersed with pieces written by the other. Bell penned most of the songs for Tarantula, one of which - "Castle on the Hill" - was a lament for the band's situation and contains references to Gardener's self imposed exile from the group. The album was withdrawn from sales one week after release.

Since the break-up, both Bell and Gardener have been able to be more reflective on the reasons why the group disintegrated, with Bell especially admitting his own part in the process. It appears that they had just been too young and too stubborn and had no real idea of where the band was heading when they changed their style.

Hurricane #1

Bell returned in 1997 with Hurricane #1, another Creation signing. Aware of his own vocal fragility, Bell had drafted in a more gutsy singer, Alex Lowe, who would sing the songs Bell wrote for him. The same year, they released their first album, also called Hurricane #1. Their first single, "Step Into My World", number 29 in the UK charts (a re-mix of reached number 19 that year), and other less successful singles "Just Another Illusion" and "Chain Reaction".

Their second album, Only The Strongest Will Survive, was released in 1998 and the title track was released as a single reaching number 19.

Hurricane #1 drew criticism, bordering on ridicule, for their similarity to Oasis. Bell himself said "Hurricane #1 is not so much influenced by Oasis, it's inspired by Oasis". Ill-advisedly, they let one of their songs be used on a TV ad campaign for The Sun. Their albums did not sell well and in 1999 Bell took time out to tour as guitarist with the band Gay Dad.

Oasis

Bell has been good friends with Magnus Carlson, the lead singer in Swedish band, Weeping Willows. Together they have embarked on some musical projects. The two run and DJ at the club, Bangers ’n’ Mash. During the autumn of 2006 Carlson and Bell teamed up (with Janne Schaffer) and performed at an event dedicated to the late 1970s singer-songwriter, Ted Gärdestad.

The Weeping Willows released their fifth studio album Fear & Love with Bell as producer in February 2007. Bell played a number of instruments on eight of the album's twelve tracks ranging from glockenspiel, piano and guitar. Weeping Willows has always drawn upon early Roy Orbison and The Smiths as their main influences. On Fear & Love Bell brought some English folk music influences, and a some 1960s styled British Invasion sounds. The album was more or less recorded live in the studio, by playing the songs until the band got them right with minimal digital post production. Weeping Willows last two albums relied on a lot of post-production and remix styled studio techniques. Scandinavian music critics have given the album a warm welcome and compared some songs to The Verve, Talk Talk and Oasis.

In 2003 Bell collaborated with the Stockholm based Irish-Swedish electronica/acid house duo, DK7, on the tracks “Heart Like a Demon” and “White Shadow” for their Disarmed album.

He has also performed solo gigs at smaller Swedish summer festivals.

Oasis Will Play Three Scots Dates In World Tour

Man the barricades and put your crash helmets on...the Gallaghers are coming to Scotland.

Email can exclusively reveal Oasis will play their first gigs here for three years.

Details of their eagerly awaited UK tour - to promote new album Dig Out Your Soul - are still shrouded in secrecy.

But we can confirm the band will play at Aberdeen Exhibition Centre on November 2 then Glasgow's SECC on November 4 and 5. Tickets go on sale on August 20.

It is the first time they have played shows in Scotland since headlining a massive 40,000-capacity open-air gig at Hampden Park, Glasgow, in 2005.

The group - led by guitarist Noel Gallagher and singer brother Liam - release new single The Shock Of The Lightning on September 29.

Dig Out Your Soul follows on October 6. It is their seventh studio album and was recorded at the legendary Abbey Road.

Noel said: "If The Shock Of The Lightning sounds instant and compelling it's because it was written and recorded dead fast.

"It's basically a demo and has retained its energy. There's a lot to be said for that - the first time you record something is always the best.

"On the album I wanted a sound that was more hypnotic, more driving. Songs you would maybe have to connect to...to feel."

Noel also paid tribute to the songwriting efforts of brother Liam on the new CD.

The fiery singer penned three tracks including I'm Outta Time, which features a speech sample by his hero, John Lennon.

Noel said: "Liam's songs are really personal. What's his favourite subject? Himself. He's really good.

"If he could be bothered to finish some of the songs he started...they're amazing."
