Oasis' Liam Gallagher has spoken about his brother and bandmate Noel Gallagher being attacked in Toronto last month.

Noel Gallagher was attacked on stage on September 7, resulting in the guitarist sustaining rib injuries that forced Oasis to cancel a slew of gigs.

Oasis kicked off their UK tour in Liverpool last night (October 7).

"It's not nice when you look down and see your brother on the deck," he told Sky News before the show, referring to the assault on Noel. "If it was up to me, I'd have cut his [the attacker's] dick off and made him eat it."

Liam went on to say that the band had no plans to wind down following the release of their seventh album, 'Dig Out Your Soul', which came out on Monday (October 6).

"We'll carry on as long as we want to carry on," he said. "There's good music out there to be wrote and we're the ones to write it."

Oasis' 'Dig Out Your Soul' seems destined for the Number One slot in the UK albums chart, having sold 89,434 on its first day of release.
