Noel confirmed that Zak has left the band at that former La's drummer Chris Shanrock is taking over. He also confirmed that Chris was offered the job after Alan White left.

There are five different versions of the album, "There's the cheap digital one, there's the other digital one that's slightly more expensive, there's a physical one in the shops, the there's a deluxe' one that's slightly more expensive, then there's a super deluxe one that has everything on it".

Noel on the new songs...

Bag It Up - Opening track. Inspired by the Pretty Things' song 'Baron Saturday' which appeared on their 1968 album S.F Sorrow. Noel's gutted as he didn't realise ex-Spice Girl Geri Halliwell released a song of the same name.

Shock of the Lightning - The first single, written by Noel, sung by Liam. Out on September 29. 'Instant and compelling' according to Noel.

I'm Outta Time - Liam-penned, Liam-sung 'lighters-in-the-air, John Lennon moment' according to Noel. First heard being rehearsed by Liam on DBTT studio documentary.

Soldier On - Another Liam number, last track on the album. Liam recorded it with Andy while pissed and band forgot about it until The Coral stumbled across it in Noel's studio and begged them to record it. Noel describes it as 'just one verse and one chorus' and 'a kind of lost-and-found story'. It goes 'a bit dubby' at the end and Noel plays melodica on it.

Two other rumored tracks

Stop The Clocks - Rumoured to be on there, yet to be confirmed.

Get Off Your High Horse (Lady) - Rumoured title, yet to be confirmed.
