## Background

Gallagher announced the album in October 2021, whereupon he stated the song "More Power" was dedicated to his brother Noel, calling it "a naughty little tune" but "lovely". The cover is a photograph of "fans in the pit" at one of Gallagher's shows that was taken at Reading Festival 2021.

C'mon You Know received generally positive reviews from critics, with many positive reviews praising its new direction and increased depth. At review aggregator Metacritic, the album received a score from 74 out of 100 based on twelve critics' reviews, indicating "generally favorable" reception. Robin Murray of Clash called it "the broadest of Liam Gallagher's three solo albums, and also the deepest. It's the one in which he learns to bare his soul a little, and accept different influences." Jordan Bassett of NME found it to be Gallagher's "best and most experimental solo album yet", writing that he does not "overthink this third record, which is packed with Summer of Love anthems".
Writing for The Independent, Helen Brown opined that "There's so much sheer, on-one attitude in Gallagher's parka pastichery that's hard to resist. His band are on fire with it. Riffs skirling from the guitars. Drums constantly a-quiver. [...] Fans will only need to give this album a couple of spins before they'll be set to sing along in the festival fields." Reviewing the album for Classic Rock, Ian Fortnam called the album "a bit of a cracker, finding a 'repentant' Liam [...] gleefully infuriating his usual detractors (with 'Diamonds In The Dark''s 'Now I know how many holes it takes to...' hook), delivering catnip ballads ('Too Good For Giving Up'), hitting all the right Liam Gallagher buttons ('Don't Go Halfway') and occasionally kicking hand-me-down Stonesy arse".
