In a four-star review of Gallagher and Squire’s new album, NME wrote: “If fans were vaguely alarmed by lead single ‘Just Another Rainbow’, which pulses with a reassuringly Roses-style riff but also sees Liam recite the colours of the rainbow and ponder, “am I your windmill?”, it’s hard to imagine anyone feeling short-changed by the album itself.

“Obviously this isn’t a ‘Definitely Maybe’ or ‘The Stone Roses’ – no-one could touch those hook-laden masterpieces. As a triumph of style and mood, though, ‘Liam Gallagher John Squire’ is well worthy of their enduring legacies.”

Later this year, Gallagher will head out on the road for a run of ‘Definitely Maybe’ 30th anniversary concerts, deliver headline performances at TRNSMT and Reading & Leeds, and stage his ‘Liam Gallagher & Friends’ weekender in Malta.
