Noel Gallagher Joins The Party As Manchester City Win The League Cup

No comments













Manchester City's stars gave supporters a behind the scenes glimpse of the what the euphoric Wembley dressing room looked like following the Capital One Cup triumph before kicking off the celebrations with Noel Gallagher.

The former Oasis star posed for a photo with City frontman Sergio Aguero on Sunday night - and the Argentine was delighted to be pictured with one of the club's most famous fans.

Posting the picture on Twitter, Aguero tweeted: 'With Noel Gallagher!!'






















Aguero's team-mate and countryman Pablo Zabaleta also posed for a snap with the High Flying Birds singer. The Argentinean described Gallagher as a 'top man' in his tweet.

Manuel Pellegrini's side came from behind to beat Sunderland 3-1 on Sunday to clinch the first silverware of the season.

Yaya Toure and Samir Nasri notched twice within two minutes to turn the final on its head after Fabio Borini's early strike.

Jesus Navas added gloss to the win as stoppage time approached, and City's players were understandably jubilant once Martin Atkinson blew for full-time.

Victorious skipper Vincent Kompany took to Twitter to post a group picture of the squad alongside the trophy.

But he wasn't the only one.

Sergio Aguero featured in his first game since January and played a part in the second goal before being hooked by the manager. He had a proud thumb up next to the silverware.

Alvaro Negredo and Aleksandar Kolarov also tweeted snaps of themselves clutching hold of the trophy.

The togetherness was there for all to see, with players not picked or injured looking as pleased as those who were handed a starring role.

Pellegrini will need that spirit in the coming weeks.

City have ground to make up in the Premier League and need to turnaround a two-goal deficit away at Barcelona in the last-16 of the Champions League if they want to progress in Europe.

Noel Gallagher Is 'Starting To Believe In God' After Man City Success

No comments












Noel Gallagher said Manchester City's current form - and rivals Manchester United's struggles - is starting to make him believe in God ahead of the Capital One Cup final against Sunderland on Sunday.

Gallagher has been following City for over 40 years and claims he still can't believe the Citizens rise to prominence.

Indeed, City's rise coupled with Manchester United's struggles under David Moyes have given Gallagher reason to reconsider his religious views.

He said: "We'll never get used to this and we'll never get blaze about it.

"It's a great thing that's happened and none of us ever thought we would live to see the day that there was a thought that we could compete for any trophy, let alone all the trophies.

"It's just a wonderful thing and to cap it all off, this year United are rubbish.

"I take it as a message from God and if you're listening God, I am starting to believe."

Gallagher added that he was delighted to see Argentine forward Sergio Aguero back in the starting line-up to take on the Black Cats, saying: "We're easily a 20 per cent better fan when he's in the side."

And Gallagher also suggested he was enjoying City's style of play under Manuel Pellegrini after three years under Roberto Mancini.

He told BBC Five Live: "We played with an Italian manager for three years and now we have a Spanish mentality.

"When we played under Mark Hughes even though we had different players, we played with a British mentality. It's quite amazing."

Liam Gallagher Says “Don’t Buy Into ‘Definitely Maybe’ Reissue”

No comments













Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has beseeched fans not to buy the upcoming reissues of the legendary UK group’s first three albums, a project dubbed ‘Chase The Sun’ revealed last week after mysterious Instagram video teased a major announcement set for 9:00am GMT 26th February.

Taking to Twitter to vent his distaste for the newly announced project, to be released via Sony’s Oasis-affiliated Big Brother imprint, the younger of the two Gallaghers wrote, “HOW CAN YOU REMASTER SOMETHING THATS ALREADY BEING MASTERED.DONT BUY INTO IT.LET IT BE.”

Big Brother Recordings was established in 2000 to release Oasis’ music in the UK, reissuing the singles from the band’s first three albums that year. The reissue of Definitely Maybe, slated for 16th May, will include several discs worth of rare and unreleased material, including early demos.

Gallagher also addressed his current band’s recent split with their management company and manager, while taking a stab at brother Noel. The Beady Eye frontman tweeted, “EYE AS IN ME LIAM GALLAGHER IS NO LONGER REPRESENTED BY SCOTT RODGER OR QUEST THE END.”

“IT’LL BE ME AS IN LG THAT THROWS IN THE TOWEL NOT SOME ROADIE FROM THE 80s,” Gallagher subsequently tweeted, referencing his brother’s time spent as a roadie for UK alternative outfit Inspiral Carpets, prior to joining Oasis. Meanwhile, Scott Rodger has told NME:

“Beady Eye are one of the last great British rock bands. It has been a pleasure to have worked with them on this album campaign. They are in complete control of their future as a band with many exciting new projects on the horizon.

“We’ve just about reached the end of the ‘BE’ album cycle and it’s the right time for the band to make a change. Our paths will cross again in the future I’m sure. I wish them continued success in everything they do.”

Following the release of the Instagram video to the band’s official social media channels, many were convinced of an imminent reunion tour announcement. The nostalgia-tinged clip featured a series of images depicting the Gallagher brothers’ rise to fame and fortune in the early ’90s.

The band, fronted by Liam Gallagher and featuring former Oasis members Gem Archer and Andy Bell, were managed by Scott Rodger, who also works with Arcade Fire and Paul McCartney, for the duration of their 'BE' campaign. However, their working relationship has come to an end following the end of the contract signed by both parties.

They are in complete control of their future as a band with many exciting new projects on the horizon. We've just about reached the end of the 'BE' album cycle and it's the right time for the band to make a change. Our paths will cross again in the future I'm sure. I wish them continued success in everything they do."

Beady Eye released their second album 'BE' in June, 2013. Their debut album 'Different Gear, Still Speeding' was released in 2011.

Would Oasis Make It Today?

No comments













Would Oasis make it today, when pop music has been colonised by the posh and the pathetic?

Man, I miss Oasis. On Wednesday the Mancunian rockers, formerly both the kings and the scourge of the 1990s Britpop scene, got the media's pulse racing by posting a cryptic hint on their Facebook page about a possible reunion. But it turns out they won't be reuniting, probably because there isn't a patch of land on Earth big enough for the Gallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, to bury their legion hatchets. Instead, the big announcement from the Oasis camp was that a remastered version of their first album, the goosebump-coaxing Definitely Maybe, will be released on 19 May, to celebrate its twentieth anniversary. That was nice enough news for old fans like me, for whom the sounds of that album are a glorious reminder of being 19 years old and off one's nut.

Listening to Definitely Maybe now – as I did last night, following the media frenzy about Oasis's announcement – it is striking how foreign it feels, how different it is from what passes for pop or rock or indie music in the 21st century. The album is gloriously unironic and free of twee. It's totally blokey, which is of course anathema in 2014, when Facebook offers no fewer than 58 gender options (none of which is lad) and every man is supposed to be in touch with his inner feminine spirit. The lyrics – most of which are rubbish – speak to aspiration, including of the materialistic variety, which is also a big no-no today, when academics warn us of the dangers of "affluenza" and it's the in thing to be a recessionista: someone's who eco-thrifty and resistant to the charms of bling. On Rock'n'Roll Star, Liam bellows: "I live my life for the stars that shine / People say it's a waste of time / When they said I should feed my head / That to me was just a day in bed." Rough translation: these guys want glory, not education; they want material wealth, not mental stimulation.

There's another reason Oasis now look and sound like creatures not just from another millennium but from another planet: their rise to stardom was really the last time a working-class band made it big, storming to the top of the pops through swagger and self-belief rather than with the aid of high-up connections and nepotistic favours. These days, as Michael Gove pointed out a couple of years ago, the sharp-elbowed sons and daughters of Britain's public schools have thoroughly colonised every corner of public and cultural life, including popular music. "2010's Mercury Music Prize was a battle between privately educated Laura Marling and privately educated Marcus Mumford", said Gove. "And from Chris Martin of Coldplay to Tom Chaplin of Keane, popular music is populated by public school boys." (Noel Gallagher, you won't be surprised to hear, has been far more stinging about Keane: "I feel sorry for them. No matter how hard they try, they'll always be squares. Even if one of them started injecting heroin into his own c–––, people would go: 'Yeah, but your dad was a vicar, good night.'") Oasis are a reminder of what now seems, quite sadly, to be a very bygone era, a time when a combination of confidence within working-class communities and the existence of a public space for the rise of working-class entertainment and art meant that rough men with guitars could take on the world.

This means that, 20 years on, Definitely Maybe strikes an unwittingly melancholic note. It feels like a relic, a blistering cry from a time when politics had not yet been totally taken over by foppish men from Bullingdon or the sons of academics from Hampstead and pop music wasn’t yet the preserve of the skinny, oh-so-knowing offspring of professors and millionaires who wear Bruce Springsteen T-shirts for a JOKE. Would a Definitely Maybe be possible today? I’m not sure. Who today would venture into inner-city Manchester and offer a record deal to two foul-mouthed sons of Irish immigrants who wanted to sing songs about cigarettes and alcohol and living forever? Not many, I would wager. Modern record producers would likely be bamboozled by the earnestness of these young northern men – “I need to be myself / I can’t be no one else”, Liam sings on Supersonic – and would ask where the lolz were. The twentieth anniversary of Definitely Maybe is an occasion not only for tapping one’s toes once again to those gorgeous songs, but also wracking one’s brains as to what happened to the phenomenon of the working-class band and creative inner-city attitude.

Oasis were the last great rebels of rock. They are, as you would expect any decent rock rebel to be, agitated by the mainstream morals and pieties of our time. So Noel lambasts environmentalists as “hippies with no place in the world”, asking, quite sensibly, “How do you suggest we get millions of Chinese not to have a fridge?” He rails against worthy, charity, green-minded, ishoo-led pop. Of the Live 8 concert that accompanied the G8 meeting in Gleneagles in 2005 he said: “Are they hoping that one of these guys from the G8 is on a quick 15-minute break at Gleneagles and sees Annie Lennox singing ‘Sweet Dreams’ and thinks, ‘F––– me, she might have a point’?” He laments the disappearance of a “work ethic” among Britain’s youth, who now, he says, prefer to tweet than make art. All of this has made Oasis somewhat unpopular in the music press and among young bands, which is further proof of the extent to which those worlds have been conquered by middle-class mores, so that even an undisputed rock god like Noel Gallagher can now appear to them as little more than a terribly rough and ill-spoken man with outrageously outré views.

Beady Eye Have Reportedly Split With Manager Scott Rodger

No comments













Beady Eye have reportedly parted company manager Scott Rodger.

Gallagher initially drafted in Rodger - who also manages Sir Paul McCartney and Arcade Fire - to boost their profile following lukewarm reviews of their first album 'Different Gear, Still Speeding', but it appears the pair have now parted ways.

A source told The Sun: "It's a shock that Liam has left Scott. He has a lot of influence. Beady Eye hired him to rejuvenate their career after their first album didn't do as well as hoped.

"Scott put in a lot of hard work on the second album and persuaded Liam to play Oasis songs live again."

Damon Albarn - 'I'd Love To Collaborate With Noel Gallagher'

No comments













Former Britpop rivals won Music Moment Of The Year for Teenage Cancer Trust duet at NME Awards 2014 (February 26)

Damon Albarn, who collected the Award For Innovation at the NME Awards 2014 with Austin, Texas last night (February 26), has said that he would "love" to collaborate with Noel Gallagher in the future.

Albarn and Gallagher were given the Music Moment Of The Year prize for performing together at a Teenage Cancer Trust show in May of last year. The Blur singer also later admitted that the band had written 15 new songs for a new album, but said they won't see the light of day for years.

Albarn also was on hand at last night's ceremony to present Beatles legend Paul McCartney with the Songwriter's Songwriter Award, while other big winners included Blondie, who were the recipients of this year's Godlike Genius title, and Arctic Monkeys, who took home five gongs.

Noel Gallagher's New Album Has The Spirit Of Oasis' Definitely Maybe

No comments












Noel Gallagher is recording a new album which has the spirit of Oasis' debut album, according to Gallagher's long-term associate Mark Coyle.

Coyle, who co-produced Oasis' debut album 'Definitely Maybe', told NME he heard demos for Gallagher's new album earlier this month (February) following recording sessions Gallagher made in New York.

"Noel's new album is fucking great," said Coyle."It reminds me in some respects of the spirit of 'Definitely Maybe', because it’s so obviously exciting. That boy is from a different planet, and even the fans won't believe how utterly amazing it is."

Coyle, a friend of Gallagher’s since they were both in Inspiral Carpets' road crew in the early '90s, said Gallagher had written between 50 to 60 songs for the new album. "He’s not exactly struggling for an 11th song to complete the album," said Coyle. "It's pouring out of him and he’s currently whittling it all down into an album. The new record will be seismic. It's so explosive that, on the day it comes out, Virgin Trains won’t be able to cope with all the people trying to flee the chaos."

Coyle talks about the 20th anniversary edition of 'Definitely Maybe' in the new issue of NME, which is on newsstands from today (February 26) and available digitally. He spent six months going through demos and live recordings for the extra tracks on the anniversary release's Special Edition.

Coyle is currently overseeing an expanded version of former Shack singer Michael Head’s 1997 album 'The Magical World Of The Strands', the sole album by Michael Head And The Strands, which Coyle produced. He is also planning more shows with his band Tailgunner, who released a self-titled album featuring Gallagher on drums in 2000. "I’ve sacked Noel as our drummer," said Coyle. "OK, so really he’s too busy."

Earlier today it was announced that Oasis's classic 1994 debut album 'Definitely Maybe' will be reissued to mark its 20th anniversary this May.

A remastered version of the Manchester band's LP will be released on May 19 and will include rare and unreleased recordings. The reissue is the first in the new Chasing The Sun series from Big Brother Recordings, with Oasis' follow-up albums 'What's The Story (Morning Glory)?' and 'Be Here Now' to also be reissued later this year.
