Liam Gallagher is releasing an album on Friday, with guitarist John Squire (ex-Stone Roses), and not his brother Noel. The two brothers have not spoken since 2009, after the tragic separation of Oasis backstage at the Rock en Seine festival.

The genesis of the Manchester group is like the two brothers, mocking. In 1991, Noel, then a roadie passing through Munich, called his mother to tell her that his younger brother was part of a group. “I always told Liam not to choose that damn name. ”
