Noel Gallagher has admitted that he didn’t want to be part of another band after Oasis and thought he would make his comeback as a solo artist.
The guitarist, who is now a member of the High Flying Birds, told the Express Tribune that he hates "being the centre of attention", however he felt he had no other choice.
He said: "I don’t like being at the centre of attention. But once you’ve been in a band like Oasis what’s the point of being in another band? There’s only one option and that’s doing it yourself."
Gallagher also took a dig at his former band Oasis saying that it was great to be able to work all day on his new album instead of doing it in short bursts.
He said: "As soon as I was in the studio it was great. It was a completely different experience. The process of the work was far more enjoyable for me.
"I would spend two weeks in the studio and then take three weeks off. But in those two weeks I would work 12 hours a day nonstop, whereas in Oasis, I would do my bit and then sit down for six hours and wait for someone else to do their thing."
