A week and a half ago — where does the time go? — I made this intriguing post to Twitter: Funko is offering Funko POP! vinyl figures of the dueling Gallagher brothers of Oasis, Noel and Liam.

On Noel Gallagher’s Next Release
Epic. That’s the only way to describe Noel Gallagher’s “Shoot a Hole into the Sun,” the first track released from his collaboration with Amorphous Androgynous for his next album.

On a Recent Musical Mood
For some reason, I’ve been in an Oasis mood this week. Don’t ask me why — my moods are as strange as they are inexplicable.
