Oasis will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album, Definitely Maybe, with a new “Deluxe Edition” reissue featuring previously unheard versions of songs and outtakes.

If you ask either of the Gallagher brothers about their songwriting, chances are they won’t give a long-winded explanation. “I know I’m not the greatest lyricist ever, but I’m not the worst,” Liam told GQ in 2019. “I find it hard to say what I really fuckin’ mean.” Then there’s his older brother Noel, the chief songwriter of Oasis during their time together and one of the most prolific writers of the Britpop era. “Two things can happen: with an easy one, you tend to think, ‘Oh, it can’t be that good — it was much too easy.’ There’s no way it can be good,” he told Music Radar in 2011. “And then...

Oasis became famous not only for their hits — one of them so ubiquitous and beloved by novice guitarists that it earned the catchphrase “Anyway, here’s ‘Wonderwall'” — but also for their highly publicized disputes and, well, rock ‘n’ roll lifestyles. Even those who know little about Oasis know that brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher don’t have an easy relationship with one another. But of course, there is much more to the Britpop band than those things: Namely, an entire catalog of effective songs that draws heavy influence from the well of British rock musicians of previous decades while also s...

Liam Gallagher has told former Oasis bandmate Andy Bell “not to get people’s hopes up” about an Oasis reunion. The former frontman of the legendary Britpop group has several times over the years pleaded with his estranged brother, ex-guitarist Noel Gallagher, to put the past behind them and reform the “Wonderwall” group, to no avail. And when Ride star Andy Bell – who was the Oasis bassist until their demise in 2009, following a backstage bust-up between the warring siblings at their final show – suggested it’s still possible they could reunite, Liam told him it’s not going to happen and that ...

Former Oasis bandmate Andy Bell’s mention of an Oasis reunion has been brushed aside by Liam Gallagher. Of course, Liam has asked his estranged brother Noel Gallagher to put the past behind them and reform Oasis several times over the years, to no avail. Bell, their former bassist, has since moved on to the Ride, but nevertheless remains cautiously optimistic about a reunion. “Yeah, they probably will,” he told Virgin Radio recently. “I think yeah, they probably will do it. I don’t think it looks likely right now, but life is long, isn’t it?” READ MORE: Five Reasons Oasis Should Be in the Rock...

Liam Gallagher insists he’s a "kind-hearted" person, despite his hardman reputation. The 51-year-old frontman has had a 14-year feud his brother and former Oasis bandmate Noel, 56, caused by the guitarist's decision to quit the 'Supersonic' band in August 2009 in the wake of backstage bust-up at the Rock en Seine music festival near Paris, which ended when Liam allegedly tried to strike his sibling with a guitar. But the 'Just Another Rainbow' singer insists he’s nothing like his reputation and in reality he just wants to get on with people and have fun. In an interview with Rolling Stone Ital...

David Bowie's handwritten lyrics could fetch £100,000 at auction. A double-sided lyric sheet showing the changes the late music legend made to 'Rock N Roll Suicide' and 'Suffragette City' from 1972's 'The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars' are set to go under the hammer. One side shows that Bowie was planning to add the songs 'It Ain't Easy' and 'Round And Round' (a cover of Chuck Berry's 'Around And Around') to the record. The former track did make it to the LP, and the latter ended up as a B-side for the UK issue of 'Drive In-Saturday' in 1973. The sheets will go on s...

Noel Gallagher thinks his life leaves fans "disappointed" when they meet him. The Oasis legend has revealed he lives a much calmer life now compared to his hedonistic days in the 1990s, and he has suggested his ordinary day to day existence can be a letdown for people who idolise him as a rock star. He told the 'Take 5' podcast: "I can go to the supermarket now and do a shop for the weekend and no one will bat an eyelid. “I think people get a bit disappointed when they bump into you buying soup. “They kind of don’t want you to inhabit the same supermarket queue as them as they think you’re on ...
