Speaking to Xfm on the eve of the release of his new band Beady Eye's debut album, 'Different Gear Still Speeding', Liam Gallagher claimed that brother Noel had been working on his own record for some time, despite claims that he was too busy.
"I reckon he's written it, man," said Liam. "He's probably going down that Radiohead thing - it's probably out already! He's definitely written it, he's been in the studio for ages. So I don't know what he's talking about. I'll be interested to hear it, see if I'm on it... In the background somewhere..."
Gallagher then indicated his Beady Eye band mates Gem Archer and Andy Bell, adding: "These two are on it!"
Archer was not so sure. "We'll see won't we?" he replied. "It was weird... Noel's a top songwriter, so when you're hearing whatever he was coming up with... well, that's that. But now [with Beady Eye] it's all brand new."
You can hear the whole interview on the Xfm Breakfast Show with Dave Berry on Xfm London 104.9 or online on Friday February 25 from 8am.

lol if you think about it, if both Andy and Gem are on the record and the Liam might be there too, doesn't that make it an Oasis album? hahaha...

Thanks for the info man!!
Loving all things Gallagher at the moment, loving BDI, the snippets of news about Noel albeit it all being from everyone but him, ideal situation would be that when the BDI album and tour hype dies down in a few months then proper announcements start getting made from Noel himself.......hopefully, then after that probably news that BDI are writing again towards the end of the year

Liam is just referring to the fact that he thinks that the album will be made up of the tunes that Noel demoed @ the end of the DOYS tour. But honestly...I don't think Liam knows anything in particular about what is going on with Noel's album other than the vague knowledge he is recording and he is assuming everything else. He is too proud to ask and noone is going to tell him if he doesn't. I think Gem is the most likely to have heard anything but even he talked about "what he was coming up with" in the past tense so maybe he isn't up on what tune Noel is using either...
Although Noel has been known to use demo versions on an album I doubt that he is going to be using the instumentals recorded by Andy or Gem. Besides I can imagine Gem being on the demos because Noel used to demo with him alot, but I don't think I've ever heard of Noel demoing with Andy.
And I hope that he doesn't use any of the tunes that he originally intended Liam to be on, though. That is the worst thing he could do IMO. Sing a song that he had written intended for Liam.
Honestly, I wonder if Noel is sitting around @ home or in the studio and being like "Shut the hell up! Let me do my own thing. Stop commenting on me...I'm making a point not to say anything about you or your new band!"
All I really have to say is that I hope when Noel comes out with his album Liam keeps as tactful a silence as Noel has...but there seems to be this vaguely derogatory attitude coming from Liam every time he mentions Noel...so I don't think he'll let it pass without comment.

I just thought of something. Maybe Noel isn't commenting, not because he doesn't want to step on Liam's toes, but because he wants to save the hype machine that revs up for the bro vs bro headlines for his own album.
Maybe by refusing to comment he is purposefully witholding the extra headlines and media attention that will spark.
What a jerk. LOL

I don't think he will do like Radiohead and just say the reccord is finished and the release is next week. For the obvious reason that Radiohead has just done it so if he did that now everyone is going to say he did the 'radiohead thing' like Liam calls it.

Noel has been extremely critical of Damon Albarn and that Sunderland dude from the NME for orchestrating that "battle of the bands" between Oasis and Blur. You can bet he wouldn't do anything resembling that sort of thing regarding him and Liam.

Steve Sutherland was the guy's name from the NME. Here's more on that and why Noel won't use Liam's band to promote his album:

You can bet he wouldn't do anything resembling that sort of thing regarding him and Liam. Oh I don't think he'd intiate. If anyone says anything derogatory...I am doubting it'll be Noel and I am hoping it'll be noone. But I have a hard time thinking that Liam won't say that his album is better than Noel's @ least once @ the very least...and that is if he doesn't start talking about Noel having headscratching music again. He won't mean it mean...just like he didn't mean in meanly when he said that his album was better than DM. It doesn't have to be negative, though. Even a kind word said from one brother to the other in the press would generate headlines.

It's not a fact. Liam is just giving his opinion.
