Comments: Noel Gallagher has released a fine record of atmospheric pop rock. Being a member of the defunct group Oasis, Gallagher's new album doesn't stray too far away from his roots.
From the Los Angeles Times music blog: "[In 2011], couched by cheeky diatribes in the media, Gallagher is front and center, both live and on his solo debut, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds. Not as memorable as Oasis' best anthems in the '90s, or as nasally rock-ready as his brother's [Liam] latest incarnation, Beady Eye, the album hovers within a melodic good-to-average middle ground.
"If Liam hones the Stones, Noel reworks later-era Kinks, forgoing guitar theatrics for the inclusion of strings, horns and a chorus, sometimes to overwrought effect. His bright tenor, though, serves him well. Recorded in England and Los Angeles, the album encircles themes of love, melancholy and aging."
Start with 1, 2 and 4.
