Noel Gallagher has revealed he's already some way into finishing his third solo album.

The singer released second solo LP 'Chasing Yesterday' this week, and criticised Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin for not making new music because he dwells on the past.
In the new issue of Vogue magazine, Noel says: "Lyrically I can look back from time to time, you can look back in a song, like 'The Dying of the Light,' for instance, you can take on a character in a song that's looking back, but me personally, I'm already halfway through recording my next album.
"I mean, as much as I love Jimmy Page -- and I f***in' love Jimmy Page, as a guitarist and a guy, he's a f***in' brilliant, brilliant man -- all he ever does is f***in' remaster Led Zeppelin records. D'you know what I mean? F**k me! Get a job!"
He also goes on to speak about the "struggle and chaos" of his time in Oasis compared to his "really cool" solo career.
"I'm going to give you an analogy here. If you could sum up my career with films, Oasis was a cross between 'The Wolf of Wall Street' and 'Saving Private Ryan' - it was all about the struggle and the chaos. My first solo album was like 'Titanic' - it was a love story - and this part of my career is like a really cool TV series, like 'Breaking Bad'.
"Oasis was an all-action big-budget thriller, y'know what I mean? Planes crashing on beaches... and this is a bit more serene and majestic and a bit more interesting. A film is one story, but a TV series can go on for months and get inside your brain with different twists and turns, which is how I see it at the minute."
Meanwhile it was announced yesterday that Noel is to headline Latitude Festival in July.
Tickets for the festival are on sale now, with the event taking place across the weekend of July 16 to July 19.
