Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasis
Some bands what were dissed somewhat by ol' big-maaaf Liam Gallagher in the New Musical Express t'other week 'ave hit back at the band what panned 'em, sayin' all kinds of potty-mouthed shite.
The Kaiser Chiefs ("a bad Blur"), The Paddingtons ("fucking awful") and Keane ("twats") all suffered the wrath of Gallagher junior, and had the following to say in their defence:
Ricky Wilson, Kaiser Chiefs (pictured, avec stoopid dogs): "He had a go at me for wearing make-up. I only wore it to look more like him."
Tim Rice-Oxley, Keane: "Noel's a cunt. He was in a band that was very brilliant in the mid-'90s but now they're just not important any more."
Josh Hubbard, The Paddingtons: "Noel's a genius but what does his fat, toothless vocalist know about youth culture?"
DiS says what a bunch of hot-aired bollocks. Bovvvered...

"Keane, until they get a guitarist... It's actually quite heart warming that we've brought them down to our level, he called me a cunt in the papers. I find it very amusing, his mum and dad will be waiting for him to get home and cane him when he gets in. He'll be phoning up saying 'I say, I think I've had it out in the press with the Gallagher brothers, sorry pater, I may have said the C-word'."
"I don't mind the Kaiser Chiefs, Liam doesn't mind the Kaiser Chiefs, I've met them and they're fucking good lads. Liam's just talking out of his arse. Boys in make-up don't sit well with Liam. I mean he doesn't like Franz Ferdinand because they wear winklepickers, if you don't like a band because of their shoes it's bad that, isn't it, you know what I mean?"

Gem Archer: "I was in a turd Creation band from the mid 90s that not even my parents gave a tinker's cuss for and guess what - I am again!"
Andy Bell: "I was in late 80s band who were looked up to and are now being cited as influential, and erm, now I'm in Oasis"

The best response from all the bands would have been, to not say anything, they shouldn't have to answer back the pathetic drivel from the lead singer in a no longer relevant or decent band.

That's what I want from a rock'n'roll star. Fuck professionalism, I want someone with the balls to call Wembley Stadium a dump and everyone in it a buch of cockney cunts. That's what seperates Liam and Oasis from the likes of Bono and U2.

I can't excuse defending Oasis after the last...four albums? I get confused how many, since they all seem to merge into one for me. Live nowadays they should just play Definately Maybe and What's The Story all the way through and everyone would leave happy.
Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasis
jesus how tedious
Re: Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasi
Errrm, how does this work? How can U2 be around longer than U2? Is Bono actually magic as opposed to just thinknig he is?

Then again, it was funny when Tim Westwood said they look 'a touch gay', and they replied, 'He sounds a touch white.'
Re: Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasi
"Oasis will remain relevant as long as people enjoy singing their cocks and fannys off to rock'n'roll pop tunes."
and yet you say U2 aren't nearly as relevant as Oasis. There's just as many, in fact shit loads more people around the globe that enjoy "singing their cocks and fannys off " to U2 than to Oasis. So by your logic, U2 are better.
Re: Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasi
If I pissed people off and slagged them for no reason down the pub, would I be cool for that? If I suddenly decided to twat you, or key your car, or slap my wife, because I'm so 'instinctive' and all that, is that a good thing? No, its just acting like a wanker.
Bono arselicking music executives to keep his career going is frankly nothing short of hilarious. If you look at who has the most power in music (Q magazine ran this I believe), Bono is #1. He doesn't need the support of anyone to carry on. The new album is fantastic, as was the album before. Can Oasis boast this?
Our survey said: Ehhh urrr.

Re: Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasi
As for Bono supposedly having the most power in music, who gives a flying fuck? As if Q magazine have any idea what they're talking about anyway. Q are to music what Razzle is to fine art. If Bono has power in the music industry it's precisely because he's sucked corporate cock to get there.

Re: Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasi
He's also been involved in domestic violence, drug abuse, general assault, on top of being an absolute fucking wanker to the whole world. Even NOEL calls him an absolute twat. Seriously man, just being a cock doesn't make you some sort of 'rock star'.
And not corporate cock son no...its called writing choons. With or Without You is more beautiful than anything Oasis have ever done. And I'm not even a U2 fan. AND I love the first Oasis albums. Just treating them as gods is ridiculous in this day and age.

Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasis
As for all this slagging of of younger bands, he's completely missed the point - if it wasn't for these bands keeping the public interested in british rock music, then no-one would give a flying frig for their new album.....oh, hang on.....no-one does! (bar a few screw-loose die-hards)

I don't believe in God. I believe in rock'n'roll. And Bono is about as rock'n'roll as Tony Blair. In fact, he's the Tony Blair of rock'n'roll.

I wouldn't defend any idol of mine over shit like that. Even his behaviour over the past 10 years would be enough for me never to look up to him to be honest.
Re: Band bitchin' - Kaisers et al hit back at Oasi
As it happens, there are things Liam has done in the past that I don't particularly agree with, but nothing that John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Bob Marley haven't done before. Should I stop liking them too?

Or his father.
Otherwise, there's no excuse for defending him to this extent.

Although I disagree with you, you certainly make well-constructed arguments and make me laugh to boot - good skills!!

a recent uncut review said:
"...the whole point about Keane is that they provide ersatz Jeff Buckley emotion for students who wouldn't know real beauty or feeling if it came in alcopop bottles."

"I was chuffed to bits. To even occupy space in Liam's mind so he'd open his mouth about us is a compliment. He had a go at me for wearing make-up, but the only reason I ever wore make-up was to look like him. It's hard to get that dark, swarthy look in your eyes when you're a ginger."

Makes me laugh that Liam Gallagher thinks by calling Bloc Party 'students' he's insulting them...it's just a fact and one he's obviously jealous of being an uneducated, brainless idiot...feels intimidated clearly, bless him.

Case in point: Before I went with a couple of mates to see them at the NME awards tour I went to get their single signed, apart form Kele the other three didn't even look at us or show any appreciation for the fans who had bought their single (which was utter shite by the way).
Keane are also quite possibly the most soulless, bland 'band' that i have ever had to listen to, so Noel is spot on here.
I'm not the biggest Oasis fan, but I know that they will be around for a lot longer than any of these new bands who will be gone and forgotten about within the next five years

The Paddingtons are an amaing band - and I'm sure anyone who's bought 50 to a £ will know that!
Ignore that comment I say...
