Noel Gallagher Discusses Oasis, ‘High Flying Birds’ Album

Noel Gallagher spoke with Spin about his ‘Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’ album and how he’s adjusting after Oasis. “These songs never would have ended up on an Oasis record. But I wasn’t frustrated in Oasis,” Noel said about whether he now felt liberated. “I directed everything that went on in that band. But Oasis was a stadium-rock band so I wrote stadium-rock music. Now it’s different. Doing the new solo album was fu**ng great. It was serene. I could take it at my own pace.”
