Gem Archer And Liam Gallagher Talk About Beady Eye's Debut Album

















Gem Archer has told Mojo that there is a bit of Rolling Stones and Elvis Presley in the new Beady Eye album ‘Different Gear, Still Speeding’ that's released on February 28th on the band's own record label.

The guitarist said" "We rehearsed it, we had it almost like a set, so we could put a lot of these songs down live. The word 'psychedelia' has been used. I always say that is a very large word, almost meaningless to some people. So I would just say 'colourful'. There's a bit of Brian Jones-era Stones, a bit of Elvis. When I say the psychedelia thing, I'd compare it to when The Kinks were slightly psychedelic. Most of it's stripped down in a kind of kitchen-sink way, and almost always trying to keep a light on it's feet., like a debut album should be. I still remember the term 'jukebox classic', tunes you'd stick on in the pub.

Also speaking to Mojo about Beady Eye's debut album, was front man Liam Gallagher who said "It's not soppy ballardy shit. They're some good ballsy tunes. I mean, a couple of tunes are just a bit slower than the rest, but they've got a bit of balls. It's 90 per cent rocking. If Oasis were black and white this is proper, proper Technicolour."
