Liam Gallagher has revealed he hopes that new Beady Eye album, BE, will gain the band some new fans - admitting that at the moment, they don't have many too lose.

In a new documentary for music website Noisey, Gallagher speaks openly about his music career - past and present, revealing he believes the door is closed on Oasis and saying that fans should get over his past and focus on his current project.

"Theres always room for a few more fans mate, especially in the Beady Eye world without a doubt," says Gallagher when asked if he hopes BE will gain new fans or alienate older Beady Eye listeners. "It might get us a few, it might lose us a few, we've not got that many to lose anyway have we."

Gallagher also claims that the ongoing comparisons between Oasis and Beady Eye is 'the Oasis disease', and reveals his annoyance that brother Noel's current project, High Flying Birds, isn't similarly compared to the Britpop giant.

When asked about a potential Oasis reunion, he responds: "I honestly think its f*cking done," adding "You don't want to be singing other peoples fucking songs for the rest of your life."

Gallagher has been performing a number of Oasis tracks in recent Beady Eye live shows, and the band are widely believed to be performing a 'secret' show at Glastonbury this weekend.

Earlier this week the band tweeted a cryptic image on Twitter, asking fans 'Where will you be?' and naming a date and time - which coincides with Glasto 2013.
