One time Oasis singer Liam Gallagher is hoping to release his new album this summer.
Liam Gallagher formed Oasis back in the early 90s, when his older brother Noel was touring the world with the Inspiral Carpets. Inviting his elder sibling on board, the pair took on the world - and won.
However Oasis could never reconcile their internal differences. A row in 2000 saw Noel Gallagher exit the group, only to return shortly after.
The differences between the two were always apparently, though, and an astonishing backstage incident last year saw Oasis ripped apart. Since then speculation has been rife with Liam Gallagher promising a solo album.
Forming a new band with some familiar faces, Liam Gallagher has given a new interview in which he promises to release a new album before July. Currently working on eight songs, Andy Bell and Gem Archer are working to bring the material to fruition.
"A lot of these songs I wrote before the band split up" the singer told XFM. "I mean, there's a few new ones on there that are coming out now."
"We're going in (the studio) in April with a producer, we're going to do three songs with him and if he doesn't balls it up and we don't balls it up then we'll go in and do the whole album with him."
Continuing, Liam Gallagher reflected on the past and claimed that Oasis had a poor work rate. "Seven albums for Oasis is not good, I don't think. We've been going 18 years, 16 years or whatever and all we've done is seven albums. Ian Brown's on his seventh solo album. I just think it's poor, really" Gallagher claimed.
"I'm not going to beat myself up about it, I think we should have made better, bigger albums. Or more albums. Having like four or five years off is just no good," he told XFM.
"Obviously Noel (Gallagher) wanted a bit of time off and we don't. The band split in August – we was in the studio in November 'cos we're mad for it."
