Ananova:

Noel Gallagher fears Sony Music will "do the dirty" on Oasis and release a 'greatest hits' album next year.

Oasis do not want to release a compilation album yet - but their Sony contract ends next year.

Noel said: "We've come to the end of our contract with Sony. We won't sign with them again.

"I'm worried they'll cash in and release a best-of. I've always said we'd never do one until we'd split.

"I think they're going to force our hand. I really wouldn't want to do one, but if they put one out we'll have to get involved otherwise it'll be s***.

"I hope we don't do one. It's all a scam. You should put one out only when you're finished - in chronological order. But I have a feeling they'll do the dirty on us."

Noel, who has just completed a tour of Australia with Oasis, also said he loved the country and would move there if it was closer to Britain.

"It's like America," he said. "Not that I like America. It's like America weather-wise, but it's not full of fat idiots."
