Liam Gallagher has claimed that his new band Beady Eye will be bigger than Oasis.
The group, which consists of Oasis’ former line-up minus his brother Noel, are three-quarters of the way through recording their debut album.
In an interview with The Sunday Times, Gallagher said Beady Eye sounded “similar” to Oasis, but also like T-Rex and Jerry Lee Lewis.
Asked if they would be bigger than his former band, he replied: “It’ll be bigger.
“I’ve got no doubt about the music, no doubt about me. I’ve never sounded better. It’s proper rock’n’roll.
“Oasis was a pop band compared to what we’re doing.”
Gallagher also hit out at Noel, saying he no longer spoke to his brother, who Oasis after a row in France in August 2009.
“Don’t want to either,” he said.
“It’s done and dusted. He’s living his life, I’m living mine. I hope he’s happy in what he does and I’m happy in what I do.”
Beady Eye are due to release their debut single at the end of this year.
