As I've said from the start: lots of nice sounds but there's not a great song underneath any of it. I like most of it but it has no emotional impact at all.
I hope he doesn't do another with Holmes.

Ive had the album on in car for last week or so trying to get in to it but I'm bored of it already. Plus 9 proper songs after a wait of years is a joke. I'd like to see him and Weller do an album together. I love it when they team up live. But I think Noel being the stubborn fucker that he is will do another one with Holmes even tho deep down he must know the album is shite. Must he? Why? It's a bit weird tagging an acoustic performance of a song as the last track of an experimental album if you feel content with the rest of it. As a hidden track or bonus track fair enough, but it appears on every version of the album as part of the tracklists. Of course this is mainly mind reading and none of us can really know for sure what Noel thinks. It's just the impression I get from how defensive he has been in some interviews too. |

He is playing the album live almost in full. Would he do that if he didn't like the album ? Makes no sense for me And I would love another album with Holmes if it's as good as this one |

Dead in the Water is a bonus track i would quite like to hear dead in the water in the same style as wbtm, with loads of reverb and swirling guitars |

Dead in the Water is a bonus track Isn't it on every version of the album? Not sure by definition that can be a bonus track. I think the only rule about a bonus track is if it is extra material. The fact that it is designated as a bonus track and not considered by anyone involved to be part of the album proper suggests to me that it is a bonus track. However, I'm not sure if it is on all the vinyl versions. I certainly don't see it as part of the track listings. But who knows? At any rate, I think it is very wishful thinking by some to assume that Noel is unhappy with this record. The fact that he has discussed continuing his associated with Holmes and the fact that he is playing virtually the entire album live is pretty good evidence when he means what he says when he says this is his favourite album of his. |

Dead In The Water was Noel's silver bullet in case things got ugly with the albums reception and sales. Not sure that one song would save a terrible album anyways but I can see Noel using that logic. I'd have been fine if it was completely set aside for a future album or one off song release. Overall it doesn't jive well with the Holmes material and David even said so to Noel.

It's a bonus track, it's not supposed to jive well. It's basically a gift to the fans. Noel is clearly enjoying himself more on stage than I've seen since about 2000. I know some here aere desperate for Noel to be unhappy for some reason, but he's playing almost the whole album, loving it and clearly keen to do more in the same ilk. He probably think he's only just getting started with this type of recording and can do better now he's accustomed to it |

Could've done without the instrumentals, too.... I'm normally a big fan of instrumentals, 'Sleepwalk' by Santo & Johnny is one of my favorite songs, for instance; but the instrumentals on Who Bulit The Moon? don't do much for me. Thanks. |

Should have been one big 4 minute version dropped in the middle of the record to break it up. Maybe get some body drop a rap Over it. |

You can make it a stand alone single. A free download. An EP. A record store day release. Whatever. Doesn’t need to be on MOON despite the quality. Even Holmes told him so. |

He's playing most of the album because it's top quality. None of your reheated Oasis classic tripe - a blend of the new with the classics.
It's what artists at his age should be doing instead of retreading the same well worn path.

Squeeeeeeeee X www.nme.com/news/music/noel-gallagher-new-music-police-cure-2243628“I don’t have a guitar in my house for the first time since I was 13, so I’ve been writing songs on the bass. It’s unbelievable. It takes all the emotion out of it and you get more of a groove but I’m loving it so that’s what I’m doing at the moment. So everything I’m writing at the minute sounds like The Police, The Cure or if The Police and The Cure were in a band together.” That's great, I'm hoping for this. |

Getting hyped again!
What will come first though? The normal song-based band album or the next Holmes album? We know he’s been recording both.
Really looking forward to finding out what this RSD release is all about.

So we could be hearing the first single in a month!
I’m getting a little hyped after hearing the new remixes and then revisiting WBTM today.

Knowing Noel the new material will be an acoustic version of Bring It On Down or something shit 🙄😂

I thought he was only recording the Holmes album. Yes definitely. He recorded with his band late last year (Abbey Road). Believe it or not he was doing something with David Sardy earlier this year (known from a Roger Daltry blog post). We don’t know what though - could be recording, could just be mixing. The impression I get is a “normal” album is much closer than the next Holmes album. Even if he started working with Holmes in January as reported, the WBTM album took 4 years to make. That said though, we know 3 songs from the WBTM sessions were almost finished and several others were half finished, so he won’t have started from scratch with Holmes. He could also be intending to combine songs from the Sardy and Holmes sessions to just make one album. Who knows at this point, but exciting times and hopefully we’ll find out more very soon. X |
