Ahem. Liam Gallagher reckons his new band will be bigger than Oasis. In a typically modest interview with London’s Sunday Times, the former Oasis front man and now singer of the dubiously named Beady Eye has bragged “It’ll be bigger. I’ve got no doubt about the music, no doubt about me. I’ve never sounded better.” Getting in to the swing of the interview and with his ego inflating at a rapid rate, he also reckons that his brother Noel, who quit the band after a back stage bust up in Paris last year, will want to join the band.”That kid will come crawling back very fooking soon, man,” Liam said. “He thinks he’s the leader, he thinks every decision he makes is right… I started this fooking band. I am Oasis.”
Beady Eye, which has former Oasis guitarist Gem Archer, bassist Andy Bell, and drummer Chris Sharrock have also been busy beavers in the studio. “We’re three quarters of the way through making my Beady Eye record and we’re all writing songs together,” his rant continued. “We each wrote four. We’ll have a single out hopefully this year, another one the beginning of next year, and then the album is due next summer.”
He’s also promising fans what sounds like another slab of derivative rock in fine Oasis tradition “It’s proper rock’n’roll,” Liam asserted. “Oasis was a pop band compared to what we’re doing.” Strangely enough he reckons their sound will be “Beatlesesque,” however “a lot of it sounds more like T Rex or really old rock’n’roll like Jerry Lee Lewis.”
