Liam Gallagher slams Radiohead, Mumford & Sons

Gallagher slams Radiohead, Mumford & Sons

Liam Gallagher has hit out at Radiohead and Mumford & Sons.

Speaking to The Quietus, the Beady Eye frontman suggested that Mumford & Sons should have seemed more enthusiastic about winning a Brit Award.

Gallagher said: "I think it's alright but they were ******ing ashamed about winning and that's the ******ing sad bit. 'Oh, we shouldn't be here!' Then what did you join a ******ing band for then?

"They bow their heads down going, 'Oh, we don't deserve it' like a ******ing d**k. What's that about? You must have seen it before so don't pretend like you've just come out of a cider apple factory... Still, it's better than Take That, isn't it?"

Talking about the lack of experimentation on Beady Eye's debut Different Gear, Still Speeding, he added: "We're quite happy doing the rock 'n' roll thing. We just like what we do. I heard that ******ing Radiohead record and I just go, 'What?!' I like to think that what we do, we do ******ing well.

"Them writing a song about a ******ing tree? Give me a ******ing break! A thousand year old tree? Go ****** yourself! You'd have thought he'd have written a song about a modern tree or one that was planted last week. You know what I mean?"

Oh go away you hateable little man and take your Oasis B-sides tribute band with you.

His rants make me laugh..

Beady eye have got a new album out right?

:laugh: yep, today. Slagging off contemporaries is his last line of promotional defence.

Knew it was soon didnt know it was today. He still hasnt grown up from slagging off his peers.

Lol, the last quote. He's truly slipping into self-parody. Reminds me of another Gallagher...

As much as I find the Gallaghers boorish and deluded(they seem to think its forever 1998 and theyre still top dog) I do actually believe they say what they really think. It does them no favours though and you'd think they would have learnt to be a bit more tactful with age. Nope.

I actually don't think he's smart enough to do it as a publicity ploy. It's just that he's now doing interviews and the Gallaghers just can't control their big gobs. Piss easy for a journo to get headlines out of them bitching about other big acts.

Go on Liam

Definately, I love it when Liam gets going, I remember when they were interviewing him once. Then at the point where they were going to switch to talking to Noel, Liam said, the interviewer would soon need a pillow when he starts talking because he never stops and talked ..........

Despite his perhaps less than 'gentle' delivery of his commenting, I actually find I agree with him. I like Liam, he wakes things up.

Plenty of artists are forthcoming and honest. I like the ones who actually have interesting things to say and can articulate themselves. And write a bit of music, too. That's always good. Music that sounds different and interesting.
