2010: Koopa return
After spending time away, the band have announced they will be making a return in late 2010, having had a very deliberate six months or so "out of the loop", and after working and touring solidly for eight years. Joe Murphy said: "We've been out of the loop by choice. When you gig for so long, it gets a bit samey, so we took a bit of a break after the last few tours."[citation needed]

The band announced that their break was taken to develop a slightly new sound and new songs.

Back to basics, just three lads in a room, workin' it out

Man can’t wait for that new sound and songs

whoa hold on there, it's a slightly new sound, they aren't going to stray far from that Koopa sound we all know and love

this is the most 2000s looking band I've ever seen, like a fictional band in a tv show set in in 2004 that they add as a period detail to remind that it's 2004

We need Noel and Ian Brown to form a revenge supergroup now. Perhaps Boaby could play tambourine in both?

The only time I saw P Scream live, c.1986, they had a dedicated tambourine player, who wore black leather gloves. Bobby a stickler for the health and safety of his bandmates back then.

man the credits on liam's last album are bizarre. why does danny l harle have a production credit on some awful reggae rock track? why does ezra koenig play on a bunch of tracks & have a writing/production credit on one (not that you can tell)

It's when you have plenty of money to throw around for your vanity solo project, is my guess.

bloke from semisonic told his experience of being recruited for a Liam solo album on podcast Comedy Bang Bang last month, which is likely representative of many of these credits

I discovered the Ezra thing thanks to your post and after listening to the track you really can tell it’s Ezra !
I do wonder how come they got to work together though… I can’t imagine them hanging out or share any musical interest…

Now, if only Bobby Gillespie would have joined that new group with Liam Gallagher and John Squire, then this truly would have been a damningly prescient thread.

Squire singing, Liam playing the guitar, Bobby bobbying.

Not quite the Ryan Trecartin-inspired ladrock crossover it hints at

i'm even more baffled by "watch you fall" after listening to a single other song of theirs which is exactly the ladrock i expected

ufo, Saturday, 3 February 2024 00:47 (nine months ago) link

Possibly some kind of instrument ID switch in the MIDI tracks behind the vocal. Can't believe how bad the lipsync is in the videos, it's not even iMovie standard.

In this photograph Liam Gallagher and John Squire have extremely strong 'mother and son in a BBC 'North West Tonight' story about 'aggressive cold call door to door sales deliberately targeting the vulnerable' energy. pic.twitter.com/iRUpvtrD4d

it reminds me of an old Japanese painting I saw. I think it was called something like "The Skeleton and the Witch".

Squire always looks so self consciously po-faced in pics - like he's holding a facial pose he thinks is most flattering to his ugly mug, doesn't he ever smile? God help him if he thinks he looks enigmatic doing this!
