Noel Gallagher Says First 3 Oasis Album Were Written On Drugs

Noel Gallagher has spoken about his past of using drugs and even revealed that the first three Oasis albums were written under the influence.
"Before 1997, I hadn't written a song without the aid of the old Colombian marching gear," Gallagher tells Spin Magazine, referring to cocaine.
"Don't forget, I was on drugs before I was even in a band. The whole of the first three albums were written on drugs. I remember being off my nut and going into the back room and setting the goal of writing a song in 10 minutes - that was 'Supersonic'."
Noel has however distanced himself from ever going back to drug use, despite finding it frustrating when it comes to writing new material: "All those albums and all the B-sides were written on drugs. That's why they're so good. And that p***** me off."
"I think, 'Maybe I should get back into taking drugs, and then it would be brilliant again.' But that thought lasts less than a second."
