In news that will surprise precisely no-one at all, Liam Gallagher has claimed that when Oasis finally do play those reunion gigs next year they will sound as good as they were back in the 1990s.

People have compared Liam Gallagher to a 'roast chicken at Christmas' as he takes centre stage in another Manchester mural - this time taking over the wall of a chip shop. Last month, the Oasis frontman was revealed to be at the centre of a piece of street art in Ancoats which was to tie into a campaign with fashion brand Berghaus.

It sounds like Oasis’ impending reunion between Liam and Noel Gallagher is not just for the tour, but they may also release new music. A fan on X, formerly Twitter, asked Liam for his thoughts on Noel’s new Oasis material. He gave a two-word response that should excite fans. “Blown away,” he praised.

When a fan on X asked Liam what he thought of the new songs his brother had written for Oasis, he simply replied: "Blown away". This latest comment has come after Liam has spent the last few months teasing new material from the Britpop band.

It’s been 15 years since Oasis last performed together, but Liam Gallagher wants the world to know the band is still at the top of their game. On Sunday, the 52-year-old rocker took to X to assure fans and critics that Oasis can “wipe the floor” with most of the bands performing today.
