Mar 14, 2011This untrammeled rock & roll gusto makes the bulk of Different Gear pure fun in a way the carefully considered post-Morning Glory records never were, and it also means that Beady Eye aren't quite as sure-footed on their ballads: they are a band of instinct, not introspection, and listening to them follow Liam's id throughout Different Gear, Still Speeding is infectious.
-
Mar 2, 2011Getting away from his brother really does seem to make Liam happy.
-
Mar 15, 2011The album is quite fun in places, and shows some actual songwriting acumen form Liam Gallagher.
-
Feb 25, 2011Beady Eye may be just Oasis minus Noel, but this debut is rather better than the past few Oasis albums, if sadly no more innovative.
-
Mar 1, 2011One listen to this album though and you come to realise that its Noel's absence that has made it.
-
Feb 28, 2011The good news is that, from its amusingly headlong title down, Different Gear, Still Speeding feels a good deal less lumpy than the last few Oasis albums.
-
Mar 3, 2011Beady Eye's eagerly awaited debut represents Liam Gallagher's uninspiring foray into the spotlight without Noel, his battle-weary brother and Oasis's chief songwriter.
