It was aimed at you, which you know but you had little else so did the best you could. High marks for effort though. Better luck next time.

What Beady Eye most need is songs with quality, not a hit song. This. Perhaps if they went towards a more electronic dancey sound would be greatly beneficial - more akin to Sons of the Stage for example. Noel's tunes aren't original but they are fantastic nonetheless, while Beady Eye's tunes (with the exception of a couple) are just mediocre. I've said it before and I'll say it again, they should go towards a sound similar to Kasabians. I'm not a hardcore Kasabian fan by any means but imagine that sort of beats with snarling Liam vocals over the top? Would sound mega and they would actually be a 'new band' rather than what some people call an Oasis tribute band. And to be honest, I would expect a lot more from Andy Bell who was one of the main driving forces behind Ride's brilliant debut Nowhere. |

Would love some modern sounding shoegaze stuff with "leave them all behind" kinda guitars. as much as i love gem and liam, i hate that they are that fixed on this 60s kinda thing. i love sixties music but it'n nothing new and fresh |

Andy was also the man driving a lot of lackluster Ride albums as well!  |

They're in their 40s! New bands in their 40s don't have hits!

They're in their 40s! New bands in their 40s don't have hits! A "new" band with 4 former members of Oasis? Hardly what I would consider "new" in the traditional sense. The only thing new about Beady Eye is its name and the absence of Noel Gallagher. |

Get an outside songwriter and go on tour with One Direction.

How many bands of there age in a music scene dominated by teen pop, hip hop and dance music have had a hit? The Roller would have been top 5 in the UK 10 years ago i think. Building a bigger fan base through a good album should be there aim. |

Realistically they're as big as they ever will be. Liam polarises opinion and - rightly or wrongly - they're seen as washed up without the talented and likeable, media friendly songwriter.
Of course, that is balanced out by the fact the Gallagher name alone got them breaks that other bands wouldn't. There aren't many bands would sell out their debut tour within minutes before they'd released any music, regardless of venue size.
I'd rather they did their own thing for better or worse than chase "the hit" that will never happen.

I agree with all of that except to say that the talented songwriter is considerably less likable than previously.

Liam has undoubtably improved as a songwriter over the years. Little James versus I'm Outta Time, massive progression that is. I don't agree with peolpe criticising Andy and Gem for writing boring lyrics, remember the two hit songs on the album were written by Gem and Andy. They still miss the touch of Noel, but they are definitely not dependent on benefit from a second part to make a good record.
Beady Eye are all about staying real and proud to their work, and a collaboration on let's say on 3-4 songs would only break the concept of the album.

Sorry I should have said 'in my opinion although' I know others share it. I think the general public perception of him is the same. |

I actually enjoyed Different Gear, Still Speeding but it didn't have much longevity and didn't add many new fans. For the band's sake I think they could do with something that gains them a bit more popularity, if only because after all that success with Oasis there's probably only so long you can play smaller venues before getting pretty disheartened and wanting to call it a day.

Part of me wishes Liam would join a supergroup who could then provide some quality songs for him to sing. Problem with Liam, Andy and Gem is they are very average songwriters that occasionally write a good song. Their songs were OK on Oasis albums where they worked as filler between Noel's stuff. The harsh reality is that an album of their material will always be very dull, with Liam's voice making the songs sound a lot better than they actually are.

THIS.
As long as the new album will be more consistent with the way the songs sound as a whole, I don't really care who is writing them. But it would be a pretty sad day if Liam, Gem, or Andy couldn't come up with anything... lol.

I prefer to have 100 times of "Bring The Light" than them having an outside songwriter to make a "hit".
