For their seventh studio album, Brit-pop stalwarts and general rock 'n' roll survivors Oasis have stuck mostly to their guns, releasing a collection of bracing, swaggering rock songs with the odd moment of bluster throw into the mix. Though the hallmarks of the Oasis sound remain (Beatles-influenced pop with a classic rock edge), 'Dig Out Your Soul' is notable for the more riff-based songwriting style and the mix of authors. Vocalist Liam Gallagher contributes three songs, while his brother and guitarist Noel contributes the majority. Features the single 'The Shock Of The Lightning'.
