From a larger article.....

He refuses to give Dig Out Your Soul the hard sell. "Listen," he says, "before you've heard our new record, I could make it sound like some f***ing rock opera. I could make you believe that each song is about a schoolboy that wakes up in the morning and this is the story of his life and blah blah blah. And you would f***in' buy it. But if you ask me about my record, I just go, 'I don't f***in' know. It's the same as the last one.'" Besides, millions of fans want to hear the old hits, and that's fine. Noel doesn't have much patience for contemporaries like Radiohead who evolve from one clangy experimental phase to the next. "Yeah, well, they went to university," he says. "We're just working-class boys trying to make a living. They're middle-class boys worrying about pushing an envelope somewhere, and all that carbon footprint and all that bollocks. Every time there's a polar bear on his tiptoes on an ice cube in the middle of the Antarctic, you know whose fault that is? Rock stars'. That's their fault. Any time there's food running out somewhere— 'Let's do a gig. That'll sort it out. Let's do a big f***ing gig. Let's fly everybody in from all over the world and pontificate to poor people about how they should be saving the planet.' Go f***ing kiss my ass. It's very easy to just say, 'We're going to become difficult now and challenge our audience.' I like my audience. They paid for my swimming pool. I'm not f***ing challenging anybody."

Noel Gallager insulting random acts he knows f*** all about.

 

YAWN

I suspect jealousy. Radiohead have infinitely more talent and are far more respected than that lame band, and they know it.

 

I totally agree with you :thumbup:

 

Yawn. Both bands are shit and overatted. Oasis where good what, 10 years ago? And all that Radiohead seem to do these days is make rubbishy-weird music, that's just really boring.

I definitely do not find Radiohead's music boring. o.O How can you listen to a song like Idioteque and be bored?

 

I hate Oasis, though.

(i LOVE both bands)

 

i find these comments funny...c mon even Thom would have a laugh.dont take these things seriously

Noel always spouts off when there is a new Oasis album imminent. Just a bit of a bizarre target this time. I think he might have confused Radiohead with Coldplay a little bit.

I hardly think you can call Radiohead boring when you adore Anastacia? Radiohead make excellent music, fair enough it doesn't appeal to a lot of people but they are very consistant and hardly "boring". Even if you don't like them you must be able to say they're at least interesting and different to the usual Indie clogging up the charts.

You are absolutely right :thumbup:
