Our Take

It's a Monday morning and you're feeling as rough as a bear's backside. But fear not, for Beady Eye's debut album "Different Gear / Still Speeding" has arrived to soothe your weary soul.

Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher and the gang are back with a vengeance, delivering a collection of tunes that will have you grooving faster than you can say "Madchester".

From the anthemic opener "Four Letter Word" to the psychedelic vibes of "The Roller", this album is a rollercoaster ride of Britpop goodness. Gallagher's trademark sneer is as sharp as ever, cutting through the noise like a hot knife through butter.

The band's homage to their musical heroes is evident throughout the album, with nods to the likes of The Beatles and The Stone Roses. But don't be fooled - Beady Eye have crafted a sound all of their own, mixing classic British rock with a modern edge.

Sure, there are moments when the album falls into a bit of a lull, but overall "Different Gear / Still Speeding" is a solid effort from a group of seasoned pros. So grab a cuppa, slip on your parka, and let Beady Eye take you on a journey through the golden age of Britpop. Cheers, lads.

About the artist

Beady Eye

Picture this: a band of misfits from Manchester, clad in retro sunglasses and oversized coats, taking the music world by storm with their infectious beats and clever lyrics. That's Beady Eye for you. Formed in 2009 by Oasis members Liam Gallagher, Gem Archer, Andy Bell, and Chris Sharrock, Beady Eye burst onto the scene with their debut album "Different Gear, Still Speeding" in 2011. Critics hailed the album for its raw energy and Gallagher's trademark sneer, reminiscent of his days in Oasis. But don't be fooled by their bad boy image, Beady Eye are more than just rock 'n' roll clichés. Their music is a blend of 60s psych-pop, 70s glam, and 90s Britpop, with a modern twist that keeps listeners on their toes. Tracks like "Bring the Light" and "The Roller" showcase the band's knack for catchy hooks and anthemic choruses, while deeper cuts like "Four Letter Word" and "Wigwam" reveal a more introspective side to Gallagher's songwriting. Despite the success of their debut, Beady Eye faced an uphill battle with their sophomore effort "BE" in 2013. Critics were divided, with some praising the band for pushing boundaries and experimenting with new sounds, while others lamented the lack of cohesive vision. But love them or hate them, there's no denying the lasting impact Beady Eye has had on the music industry. With their mix of attitude, swagger, and undeniable talent, this band is here to stay. So grab your shades, turn up the volume, and join the ride with Beady Eye.
