Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher has been slagging off Franz Ferdinand (“Right Said Fred”), Scissor Sisters (“weirdoes on stilts”) Bloc Party, The Kaiser Chiefs ("just a bad Blur") and The Libertines (“Smackheads need slaps”).
As the release of the new Oasis album ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ draws ever closer, frontman Liam Gallagher has been laying into the current crop of successful bands, only reserving his approval, oddly, for Charlotte Church.
In the interview with the NME Gallagher, speaking about Franz Ferdinand singer Alex Kapranos, said, "He reminds me of f**king Right Said Fred. You put on ‘I'm Too Sexy For My F**king Thing’ next to their records and I bet you any money it's the same person. It's the same f****** person! He's just gone on the Atkins diet and grown his hair. Not my thing at all. I don't like quirky weird music. "
As for Scissor Sisters, he responded, "If that's what they call entertaining, then let them have it - bright colours and f**king weirdoes on stilts? I'm more entertaining than that ****. And I'll rip his f**king vocal cords out any day because he's f**king rubbish."
And the newest bands making an impression on the charts don’t get off either. “F**king Kaiser Chiefs? Rubbish” he continues “Not ‘aving any of that nonsense, they’re just a bad Blur. I'm not having it - they wear make-up and their kecks are skintight" and Bloc Party “just remind me of a band off University Challenge. Like they’re sitting on a panel”<br>
As for Pete Doherty, the Gallagher brothers seem split on their opinions. Liam, was (not surprisingly) quite negative, saying "I'm not into smackheads. Smackheads need slaps. So what does the word Libertine mean? Freedom! He's f**king in the corner doing smack with a helmet on his head! There's nothing free about that. It's nasty."
However Noel was rather more diplomatic about the Babyshambles frontman, "Pete's always been an absolute gentleman to me and my missus,” Noel explained, “He's incredibly well read and he's got a good soul. I tell you what, he needs to wash his hands more, but that's about it. He's one of the last bohemians, man."
But what about the Welsh operatic singing sensation? "It's Charlotte Church for me, man.” Liam declared, “She could be the next Liam. She's got a great voice and she f**king has it. She knows how to get f**king hammered and she freaks people out."
Oasis release their new album ‘Don’t Believe The Truth’ on May 30 while the first single 'Lyla’ will be out on May 16. Both will be released on Noel Gallagher’s own Big Brother Recordings label.

liam slagging off everyone......................is there a new oasis album due out? It makes me laugh when people say that. Of course the sound bites are gonna appear when a new record is out, that's when the interviews and promo stuff kicks in, and every interviewer loves asking Oasis about other bands. |

Oasis singer blasts fellow bands
Liam Gallagher
Liam Gallagher gave the interview to NME
Liam Gallagher has hit out at Franz Ferdinand and some of music's other top bands in a magazine interview.
The Oasis frontman criticised the Mercury Music Prize winners, along with Kaiser Chiefs, Bloc Party and The Libertines in an interview with NME.
But he did have words of admiration for Charlotte Church, who he said could be "the next Liam".
The new Oasis album Don't Believe The Truth is released next month, with a European and US tour to follow.
Scathing put-downs
Gallagher said of 19-year-old Church's lifestyle: "She knows how to get hammered and she freaks people out."
But Gallagher also told the NME that the Brit-award winning band Scissor Sisters were "rubbish" and Bloc Party reminded him of "a band off University Challenge".
He also said The Kaiser Chiefs were "just a bad Blur" who "wore make-up".
Gallagher also laid into Pete Doherty and his former band The Libertines, saying of Doherty's well documented heroin addiction which has led to spells in therapy, that it was "nasty".
But Gallagher's brother Noel said: "Pete's always been an absolute gentleman to me and my missus.
"He's incredibly well read and he's got a good soul. I tell you what, he needs to wash his hands more, but that's about it. He's one of the last bohemians."
