New Music Friday: Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds – Council Skies


Artwork for Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds' 2023 album Council Skies

Noel Gallagher’s fourth solo album has been released today – revisit our review and stream it right here.

“Although he’s never far from the public consciousness and there has been plenty of new music in that time, it’s been a hefty five-and-a-half years since the last studio album from Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, the fanbase-rupturing Who Built The Moon? (lest we forget, a Mercury-nominated effort).”

Although planning to take 2020 off after several busy years, Gallagher – like all of us – found himself with time on his hands in that fallow year, to reminisce about his journey on the road up to that point.

“Yet despite his usual frankness about the lyrical inspiration, Council Skies is no fusion of The Beatles, The Smiths, The Stone Roses and that band he was in, but something else entirely.”
