The video for Liam Gallagher‘s most recent single Paper Crown has been shared.
It features on the Oasis frontman’s debut solo LP As You Were, whose success has propelled Gallagher back to the top of the UK’s live circuit, sparking a number of outdoor headline gigs and festival appearances this summer. He’s already begun work on its follow-up, and revealed on Twitter yesterday that writing sessions have resumed with Greg Kurstin.
“While the cathartic bombast is a definitive aspect of Liam’s enduring appeal with his fanbase, there are softer moments on the album portraying a rarely seen sensitive side which endearingly conflicts with the well-documented public persona,” we said of As You Were.
“Paper Crown encompasses a stripped back acoustic ballad highlighting the positive impact of cleaner living on Liam’s voice as he sings of insecurity of a past lover being left to ponder a lonely existence, stemming from a drastic fall from grace due to the treatment of others.”
