WE'VE had Blur versus Oasis, Robbie versus Oasis, and now glam-rock twits The Darkness are getting in on the act.
Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher recently called the Lowestoft rockers "inoffensive", adding: "I don't know why people hate them or love them. It doesn't do anything for me, and I'm not even sure whether the people who like them genuinely like them."
Darkness singer Justin Hawkins has used a fan website to reply, posting: "Noel Gallagher is the most over-rated 'lead' guitarist in rock history."
Ooh, get you.

when has noel gallagher ever claimed to be a fantastic guitarist? he's a good lead guitarist but not amazing, but he doesnt say he's great. He's a brilliant songwrighter, far better than anyone in the darkness is or ever could be. Justin hawkins maybe a better guitarist than noel but not by much, noels a far better songwighter a far better singer and doesnt look like a knob on stage. And the darkness album is the most overated in world musical history, saviours of brittish rock muic, ha ha ha ha, My arse. so there .

Noel Gallagher vs Justin whatever his second name is:
Best songwriter: Noel Best guitarist: Noel Best singer: Noel Best at pretty much everything: Noel Member of a band who have had 7 albums (inc Masterplan and FTM) that have sold millions of copies: Noel Member of a band who've had one shite and overrated album: Justin
erm...this aint gonna be much of a feud is it...

I love it when this happens. Feuding bands are great. Im sick of everyone being so nice to each other and going on shitty tv programmes like LK Today and 'patting each other on the back'.
;D

Noel wasn't being personal, he was being frank and if i was the Darkness i wouldn't have taken offence, shows that they take themselves far too seriously in my opinion no matter what they might do with all the flashy glam b#llocks!
To give Darkness there dues they put on a good live show and can write a good riff, but they aint even gonna save the lowestoft music scene let alone the british!
For crying out loud it doesn't even need saving-The Coral, British Sea Power, and loads other bands musically better we have just not as over-rated. Phew! Rant over.
