Noel Gallagher quit Oasis last year (apparently for good this time – it used to be a weekly occurrence back in the day) so the core of the group has reformed as “Beady Eye” with a newly released album, “Different Gear, Still Speeding”, which is pretty rocking…
Blur reunited last year but much more interestingly, Damon Albarn’s side project, Gorillaz, is having more success in the US than Blur ever did (outside of “Whooo hooo” aka “Song 2” which has become a worldwide sports arena anthem.) Gorillaz most recent album was completely recorded on an iPad.
Pulp have also reunited for a series of 2011 shows though it remains to be seen if they’ll cause as much controversy as during their heyday.
