“10 years of Noel Gallagher’s soaring birds? Blimey! Just think of all the things I could have done during that time !! “Said Gallagher in a press release. “The title only came to me one afternoon at the kitchen table. It’s a saying, isn’t it, “Back on the way we came.” I actually thought it was a great title. That’s why it has Volume 1. Because if there is another, I have no other title! “
In 2019 Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds released the Black Stars Dancing EP, the 2017 full-length Who Built the Moon? Gallagher’s last album exclusively under his name was The Dreams We Have as Children, which came out in 2009. In 2018, a book about Gallagher called Any Road Will Get Us There was published. It drew the picture of Who Made the Moon? as well as Gallagher and his band’s world tour that year.
