Jan 22, 2016An excellent album and definitely a big surprise from Beady Eye and especially Liam Gallagher.
There's still life after Oasis and the beat goes on... -
Jan 24, 2016''DGSS'' is a great debut album by a great band. A great set of songs (the roller, the beat goes on, four letter world, wigwam, for anyone etc) make an album full of susprises and many promises.Well done Liam G!The Beat Goes On...

Mar 2, 2011Oasis, no...But still really really good. Great guitar sounds and Liam has a snarl that's still the best in the biz. Snapy snaps y'all......................................................

Mar 2, 2011Still absorbing the album, but first impressions are good. Liam´s performance far from brilliant, but don´t compromise the final work. this is a work made by former oasis musicians, so it´s not only Liam. Some good tunes, the roller, millionaire, the beat goes on, kill for a dream, the morning son... good stuff, cheers OASIS fans!!!

Mar 3, 2011Solid rock & roll sounds, catchy melodies and reckless attitude. This could show other bands that introspection is not that fun to listen to anymore. Besides, it's a good album to get drunk to.

Mar 9, 2013"Different Gear, Still Speeding". The title gives a good idea of this album. It remains more on less on the same level of Dig Out Your Soul. Maybe it's a bit worse. However I prefer Noel's album, even if this has a more rock sound. I really like The Beat Goes On and Millionaire. There are other six or seven good tracks, the rest is not impressive, but not bad. Good Album.

May 29, 2011For those who have approached recent Oasis albums with a degree of tired trepidation, Liam Gallagher's badly monikered Beady Eye will hold no sense of revelatory optimism. http://hackskeptic.com

Apr 4, 2011On the whole it's a good album, certainly better than many had expected. Not really like an Oasis album, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, although lacks that a bit of drive that Oasis injected into their songs. None of the songs on DGSS are quite as exhilarating as 'Four Letter Word' but it still has some top tunes ( the Roller, Kill For a Dream, Millionaire).

Mar 4, 2014Good debut album of the band's new name. Really this albums only needs a brother in it to be called Oasis. Great rock atmpspheres, Liam vocie seems to be recovered in another style. Good one!

Under The RadarJun 8, 2011The erroneously titled debut, Different Gear, Still Speeding, plays much like a latter-day Oasis album. [May 2011, p.83]
-
Apr 21, 2011Different Gear, Still Speeding shows that the band is comfortable with themselves and their follow-up has every chance to be a stronger album – especially if they are brave enough to include more styles, even if they won't move beyond their British Invasion inspirations.

MojoApr 5, 2011Whether Liam Gallagher's band is the start of a new story or a diverting subplot to an on-going saga remains to be seen -- and you can imagine where the smart money lies. [Mar. 2011, p. 92]
