BUT WILLIAM HICKEY GETS THE SINGLE EXCLUSIVE

A further indication that Oasis have more or less given up being treated as a proper band: they've granted first review rights for the new album to, erm, Victoria Newton's tits and tattle Bizarre column in the Sun. Nice to see Noel cosying up to the Murdoch press, but it's paid off:

I'm the first journalist OASIS have let hear their new album Don’t Believe The Truth – and I’m amazed how much I love it trills Victoria.

By which we guess that she means she liked it even more than she was contractually obliged to under the first listen agreement.

Congratulations, Noel: you're now so washed-up as a creative force you're reduced to launching your album in a gossip column.
