News bites: Oasis, Butch Walker, Jimmy Eat World

*Oasis' next album, Dig Out Your Soul, comes out October 7. The first single, "The Shock of the Lightning," hits radio in September. No word whether or not those leaked demos from spring will make the album. Oasis tour Canada in August and September, with one US date (in Seattle), and Mexico in November.

* Ex-Marvelous 3 frontman Butch Walker has abruptly canceled a summer tour and postponed the release of his next solo album, Sycamore Meadows, which was supposed to come out this fall. "Personal reasons" are cited in both cases.

*Jimmy Eat World are apparently already at work on a follow-up to last fall's Chase This Light, Gigwise reports. The band's US/Canadian tour kicks off in Montreal July 1.
