“Liam: As It Was”, a new documentary about the Mancunian musician, starts as Oasis falls apart
“WIBBLING RIVALRY” is 14-and-a-half minutes of vitriol. Released as a single in 1995, it is a recording of a heated, sweary argument between Noel and Liam Gallagher, then two up-and-coming musicians, during an interview with. In the years that followed the brothers found great fame as part of Oasis, a Britpop group, but the hostilities persisted, with physical fights on stage and legal action off it.
It is in that heated moment that “Liam: As It Was”, a new documentary film, begins. Noel’s departure from the band seemed to be musical fratricide. Liam, along with other members of Oasis, rebranded as “Beady Eye” but they could not recapture the magic of what had come before. The venues got smaller, and their position on line-ups less prominent. “Fuck knows who I am,” Liam says in a clip taken later that year, and personal difficulties soon followed professional ones.
The film offers a little insight into the nature of his personal life. It shows Liam, one of British music’s biggest personalities, in more subdued moods: taking morning jogs, visiting his ageing mother and content in a new relationship with Debbie Gwyther, his manager. When his two teen-aged sons join him on tour in Amsterdam, they flip the bird to each other and talk about getting high.
The viewer senses that the final missing piece in this tale of redemption is Noel. When Liam visits the Gallagher family home in Burnage, Manchester, he looks round the room he shared with his brother, happily explaining how their feud really began . When Liam is asked what he would do if they met after ten years of estrangement, he says he is unsure—that he might give Noel a “love bite”.
