Oasis have scrapped their upcoming sixth album, after the muted
response given to two new songs they showcased at last weekend's
(25JUN04) Glastonbury FESTIVAL.  Noel Gallagher and bandmates
will return to the studio and restart recording the new material
from scratch, after their two latest tracks failed to capture
the musical festival crowd's imagination during their set at the
seminal event on Friday.  Guitarist Gallagher says, "It's back
to the drawing board. Hopefully it will be out by the end of the
year (04) but I wouldn't have thought so."  Earlier this year
(04) the British band recorded the LP with dance stars Death In
Vegas as producers, before sessions ground to a halt.  Gallagher
explains, "We've got to decide what kind of record we're going
to do now. What we tried with Death in Vegas didn't happen. The
moment's passed for those songs."  30/06/2004 14:04
