Oasis sign new unique deal

INDIE rockers OASIS are to release three albums in a groundbreaking new deal.

The GALLAGHER brothers will bring out new records on their own label,
but in conjunction with SonyBMG.

They will release their LPs through the music giant in partnership with their
own label Big Brother Recordings - meaning the two record firms will share
profits from the album sales.

This move will give the band more freedom and artistic control compared to
other artists who are signed to just one music company.

Another bonus sees the Don't Look Back In Anger stars maintaining rights over
their back catalogue of albums.

A representative said: "This allows the band to take advantage of all the
opportunities presented by the new business models available today as well
as remaining totally in control of their own destiny."

The first of the three studio albums is expected to be released in September,
their first since 2005's Don't Believe The Truth.
Not bad for a couple of brothers from Manchester.
