"HELP(2)" is the new edition of one of the most impressive charity campaigns in recent music history. Back in 1995, the greats of the British music scene joined forces to help children in war zones with the proceeds of the joint HELP compilation. In 2026, the global situation is still devastating. Inspired by the legendary charity compilation HELP from 1995, a community project has once again formed in the UK, supported by some of the most important musicians of our time. The aim is to record a worthy successor in these turbulent times: "HELP(2)". As with the original, which featured the likes of Radiohead, Oasis, Portishead, The Chemical Brothers, Massive Attack and Blur, "HELP(2)" brings people together to support the vital work of War Child: rapid emergency relief, education, specialized psychosocial support and protection for children affected by war and conflict around the world. The album draws attention to the dramatic fact that one in five children in the world today lives in a war zone. The original HELP album was recorded in a single day and raised over £1.2 million. With these funds, War Child was able to help thousands of children during the Bosnian war. Critics at the time called it "the best charity album of all time". "HELP(2)" consciously builds on this legacy, underlines the continuing urgency of the issue and makes an urgent appeal for solidarity from all people. The new album was created during an extraordinary week of recording in November 2025 in close collaboration with Abbey Road Studios. The award-winning producer James Ford acted as executive producer. "HELP(2)" brings together an impressive list of international artists, including Anna Calvi, Arctic Monkeys, Arlo Parks, Arooj Aftab, Bat For Lashes, Beabadoobee, Beck, Beth Gibbons, Big Thief, Black Country, New Road, Damon Albarn, Depeche Mode, Foals, Fontaines D.C., Graham Coxon, Greentea Peng, Kae Tempest, King Krule, Nilüfer Yanya, Olivia Rodrigo, Pulp, Sampha, The Last Dinner Party, Wet Leg, Young Fathers - as well as many other helping hands. The creative direction of the project is in the hands of renowned filmmaker and Academy Award winner Jonathan Glazer and his team at Academy Films, who played a key role in both the visual realization and the artistic design of "HELP(2)". All proceeds from the album will go to War Child UK to support the protection, education and rights of children in conflict zones around the world. "HELP(2)" stands for hope - for children whose lives have been destroyed by war - and for the power of collective action. It is an impressive sign of solidarity by artists for a safer and fairer future. Because no child should ever be part of a war. Even more anticipation for one of the most anticipated releases of the year: War Child Records announces that Oasis will feature on the upcoming album "HELP(2)" in support of War Child: on the double CD version with a hidden track! The band have generously contributed an exclusive live version of fan favorite "Acquiesce (Live from Wembley Stadium, 28 September '25)". The track is widely regarded as one of the best B-sides ever released, and thanks to the colossal Oasis Live '25 tour, the studio version made it into the charts for the first time. This is the first physical release of a live recording from Oasis' record-breaking 2025 world tour, recorded on the final night of their seven shows at Wembley Stadium. Oasis featured on the original "HELP" album back in 1995, opening the record with "Fade Away". Noel Gallagher was also involved as a member of The Smokin' Mojo Filters alongside Paul McCartney and Paul Weller. Nearly three decades after their involvement in the original project, Oasis' return to the "HELP" series underscores their continued support for War Child's mission to protect, educate and advocate for the rights of children affected by conflict.
