Description
Dig Out Your Soul is the seventh and final studio album by English rock band Oasis. It was released on 6 October 2008 by Big Brother Recordings. The album was recorded between August and December 2007 at Abbey Road Studios in London, and mixed in January and March 2008 at The Village Recorder in Los Angeles. Production was handled by Dave Sardy who had previously produced much of the groups sixth studio album, Dont Believe the Truth (2005). Lead guitarist Noel Gallagher wrote a majority of the songs, while three were written by Liam as well as one contribution each from Gem Archer and Andy Bell.
The album was supported by three singles. The first single, The Shock of the Lightning, was released shortly before the release of the album, on 29 September 2008. In promotion of the album, Oasis embarked on a world tour, debuting in Seattle at the WaMu Theater, and continuing for eighteen months. In 2009, the tour concluded (due to Noel Gallagher quitting the band) with major dates at some of the UKs biggest stadiums, notably the new Wembley Stadium, Sunderlands Stadium of Light and Edinburghs Murrayfield. They also performed three hometown shows at Manchesters Heaton Park. Dig Out Your Soul received generally positive reviews from critics for its harder rock and psychedelic sound.
