Thanks to our friends at Dangerbird Records, one of the best labels out there specializing in quality alt rock, ARTISTdirect.com is pleased to premiere "The Roller," a brand new song by Beady Eye, featuring ex-members of Oasis, save for Noel Gallagher. The band's debut, Different Gear, Still Speeding, is out March 1st, but you can enjoy a free download of the sounds-like-Oasis-and-that-is-a-very-good-thing song "The Roller" a month in advance.
Beady Eye features Liam Gallagher, Gem Archer, and Andy Bell from Oasis. That band always had a modern-day-The-Beatles vibe, as does Beady Eye. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. On "The Roller," Gallagher really sounds like late-era John Lennon; it's almost eerie. But besides the inevitable Beatles comparisons, "The Roller" stands on its own as a pop ditty that's catchier than a cold from a baby in the winter. Good songwriting is good songwriting, and Beady Eye write solid songs. I want to hear more after indulging in this nugget from Different Gear, Still Speeding.
