Pitchfork review:

Liam Gallagher’s first single under his own name may be titled “Wall of Glass,” but happily, he’s still chucking stones as if they were parade candy. The taster from his upcoming debut solo album, As You Were, finds Gallagher in classically sneering form. Where the last offering from the Gallagher-led band Beady Eye, 2013’s BE, spiced up meat-and-potatoes rock in a way that wasn’t necessarily beneficial, here the hit-making producer Greg Kurstin plays to Gallagher’s strengths with blowsy harmonica, fist-pumping guitar interplay, and a nasal, memorable hook. Lyrically, Gallagher is assailing a stone-thrower himself, who’ll one day shatter like the titular wall, but the target of his vitriol is less important—less fun!—than the vitriol alone.

That said, his barb, “You were sold a one direction/I believe the resurrection’s on/And you were wrong” apparently isn’t a reference to guitar-wielding pop idols like Harry Styles. ”I may look stupid but wouldn’t dare get on the wrong side of One Direction fans,” Gallagher told Pitchfork. And repeat listens reveal subtleties beneath the swagger, like an unexpectedly funky bridge and soulful backing vocals. Oasis listeners shouldn’t hold their breath for Liam’s reunion with the brother he insists resembles a certain root vegetable and, after all, “Wall of Glass” is no “Wonderwall.” But for now, this does a perfectly fine job breaking a Britpop icon through the solo barrier. The “potato,” it seems, is in Noel’s court

I do like this quite a bit.
