Nobody cares about Liam Gallagher solo album (except 10 people in this forum) He needs a band. Not a great singer anymore and unable to play his proper songs. His word about NOEL: he still a loser. He will need a live band and lots of help with his songs as he isn't a musician, but that doesn't mean he can't just go around as 'Liam Gallagher' rather than as a whole band. I think he is much more likely to be a success using his own name than as a band (other than Oasis obviously). If he can put in decent performances with his voice then it's the only way Noel will ever be convinced to risk the band's legacy by reforming.

Except that people from Peter Frampton to Robbie Williams to Sisqo, and many others, have been labelled as over/washed up before coming back with very successful solo albums, in some cases literally out of nowhere based on past form. He has had a band since Oasis, it was called Beady Eye. I don't know if you caught them during their all too brief career but they had commercial and personal issues that ultimately led to their early demise. Not a great singer is a point up for debate. I agree he can't perhaps sing the classic Oasis songs like he used to, but if he is moving onto his solo material only, perhaps does an Axl Rose/Ian Brown/John Lydon and gets his voice trained up and then tailors his new songs to suit his current voice he may well surprise a lot of people. On the subject of his 'proper' songs I assume you are referring to Oasis material, which technically are also in most cases Noel's 'proper' songs too, and so maybe Liam has tried the playing in a band with and without those tunes approaches and perhaps now wants to branch off away from those songs (excluding perhaps his own Oasis era compositions)? His words about Noel came across to me less of a loser, and more like I have experienced in my family, someone still angry or annoyed at a family member and therefore dealing with it in his own way- personally I found it quite humourous but each to their own I suppose. I take it in the interests of fairness Noel's comments over the years about Liam's attitude, temper and vocal prowess could also be the words of a 'loser' as well? I like most other people have absolutely no idea if Liam has the songs, the right partners or the vocal power to pull off a successful comeback, but rather than writing him off without hearing a note or seeing him perform then I am prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt and see how it turns out next year.

That was an entertaining read and certainly has livened up the start of the week! It's a shame we have to wait until next year but I suppose the album's promotional build-up starts here. Thanks for posting jaq515

FWIW I think if it does happen it will be down to one or both brothers being in dire need of cash, which judging by things at the moment does not appear to be the case.

Well at least they haven't referred to him as 'the Wonderwall singer' or the 'Little By Little' star. (That actually happened once didn't it? Not sure if it was the Sun or one of those other piece of shit tabloids)

Despicable c unts. They took the least interesting part of the interview - which was quite obviously just Liam being flippant - and exploited it for their own means. I get that 'the star fallen from grace' angle is one that sells, and I get that it's kind of The Sun's thing to be tasteless, but to essentially say "HAHA! Look at him, he's has no friends!!" is pretty low. As I say, I think Liam was being flippant, and I don't for one second believe he has "no real friends", but there will be some people that are much more sensitive in their nature than Liam, who are like that - or at least feel as if they are. And when they're scrolling through social media, or walking by a newsagents, and they see a headline like that, openly mocking someone for feeling lonely, what are they to make of it?

I've said many times that unfortunately this kind of reporting is purely to sell advertising space (as opposed the thinly veiled political articles usually directly approved by Murdoch) and the public do seem to lap up stories of celebrities having rough times, even if in a lot of cases it is bullshit or taken out of context as a quote. I am not condoning The Sun or indeed other newspapers guilty of this kind of laughable journalism, but the public that lap it up need to take some responsibility and not be so desperate to fill their lives with such pointless gossip.

I suppose you consider me one of the 'Liam brigade' but excusing the lazy stereotype I'll respond anyway. I suppose the first thing is that Liam wasn't dumped by a girl, he fell out with his brother with all the niggles and animosity that goes along with a family feud. Its not really for you or anyone to tell him to move on, he's recording music and seems pretty happy, his argument with Noel doesn't see to be holding him back. As Liam explained but you omitted he would walk into interviews after Noel having been slagged off by his brother. We all know how often this happened and no doubt while funny for us it was quite annoying for him. Now Liam has a platform to wind up Noel and he's using it. Liam doesn't see to be taking it seriously, maybe you shouldn't either. Liam indeed has a rather large ego maybe the same size as his brothers but of a different nature. That's why he gets pissed in the butchers garden. Where was Liam 'begging' him? He's quite open about a reunion but clearly not with things as they are now. Noel won't tour because he Liam's a vagina and Liam wouldn't tour with Noel if he thinks that as they would probably both know the tour would last about 3 gigs. Liam explained himself probably better than he ever has in this interview. I don't really understand what's so hard to get about it or how you reach that conclusion rather than taking in everything he said. Perhaps I didn't express myself well about the "moving on" part. I don't care what his feelings about Noel are... My point is he has to move on professionally (or artistically, if you prefer) , because otherwise he'll spend the rest of his days moaning while waiting for the call to set up a reunion tour. I disagree about Liam not being held back by his mindset (or rather, by fear of being negatively compared to his brother), as he is suspiciously tentative about his future ("I'm not starting a solo career", or whatever the actual quote is). I don't remember him making such comments when Beady Eye emerged. I'm not particularly interested in the sibbling rivalry, the music is all I care about, and what I see is a good chance for Liam to do something better and more suited to his talents than he has done in years, but the opportunity might get lost due to the wrong attitude. As I said, he should put care into the recordings, forget about Oasis forever, grab a guitar, go on stage doing his swagger walk, play the gig and fuck what everybody thinks. You clearly do care what his feelinga about Noel are, its one of the first thing you went to. Has he not moved on professionally? Or at least attempted to? Started a band after Oasis, released two albums broke that up and has been putting some tunes together for another venture. Its not like he's done nothing waiting for a reunion tour. All he seems to have done is said he would be up for it when a journalist has asked him directly. I totally agree with what you say in regard to the future. We don't know how long he's been working on things and with the couple of professionals he employed you would expect something that he's been taking due care and attention. He also knows that its important, I think he is just a reluctant solo artist because of the many reasons he loves being in a band.

I read the interview and I really have mixed feelings about it. No doubt this post will get the Liam brigade on my back, but here we go. On the one hand, I'm really happy Liam got his life back and found the motivation to record new stuff. All good, nothing to comment on that. Plus he comes across as a funny and likeable guy during the first few pages... Then the talk about Noel starts. To put it bluntly, Liam reminds me of a friend who got dumped by this girl years ago and is still obsessed about her. He needs to fucking move on. I find it really ironic that Liam calls Noel out on his massive ego (which he has, by the way) when that is the main problem that keeps Liam from being satisfied, really. He could easily embark on a solo career (he had the best songs in Beady Eye), record an acoustic-based album and play acoustic shows with a band in small venues. His songs are suited for that and he could put on good performances as he wouldn't need to strain his voice as much. Not to mention that he would be devoting himself to his passion (the ultimate success in life). The fans would be happy and so would Liam. But he won't do that because he couldn't stand being any less successful than his brother (in the boring sense, i.e., sales, concert attendance, etc.). No, instead he chooses to bitch about Noel on Twitter.
Liam talks about not wanting to reform Oasis and a few pages later he's begging Noel for one more tour. Why would an Oasis reunion be such a bad idea? The answer is easily found on the last page. Just look at his comments on Noel's stuff. No sax, please, we're British. The risk for another Heathen Chemistry would be pretty high.
In short, I hope Liam moves on for once, finishes the album, writes Liam Gallagher in big bold letters on the cover, releases the record, and moves his acoustic performances from the pub to the stage, which is where they belong. And that the two brothers never cross paths (musically speaking) again. All for our benefit.
I kinda agree. He comes across as a spoilt child who now, has to tie his shoe. Poor guy, life is terrible.
Plus, there is no way that interview wasn't prepared by PR, to launch his new career as Liam : The Nice Guy vs the mean ex-wife, vs the mean ex-brother and vs the mean ex-band members.
Kinda puts the blame on the fall of BDI on the other guys as well, that's not very nice. Gem seemed motivated, and Andy or Chris couldnt be bothered, there's always other people. Excuse fail to me. Where are these bits in the interview?

Thats oasis most punk song, and thats the punk way to perform it For me punk rock isn't about putting on a leather jacket, playing at 100mph or indeed snarlingly cutting lines short- it is about an attitude in all art forms and ways of life of being decent to people, honest in how you live your life and truthful not deceitful. So with that in mind the way Liam was singing Cigarettes & Alcohol had nothing to do with punk, and was rather a front man who for whatever (much discussed to say the very least) reasons was having trouble with the song. Oh and if it's purely the 1976 sound of punk we are talking rather than anything before or after it, then I would go with a b-side to 'Cigarettes & Alcohol'
