The ex-Oasis man is "not into new music", apparently...

Liam Gallagher - he's the gift that keeps on giving. The former Oasis frontman has been shooting his mouth off again, in typically entertaining style. Now he's having a pop at Bloc Party, Bombay Bicycle Club and all those "shit" new bands.

Quizzed by Live4ever.co.uk about new music, the singer growled: "Listen, I don’t get inspired by any new bands, right yeah? Everything is shit - in my world. I’m not gonna spend time watchin’ some stupid little band, that a) don’t look good, that b) haven’t got any tunes, and c) they want a career outta music. I’m not in it for a career, I’m here to touch people."

Liam singled out a few acts that he had little time for, but had trouble remembering the specifics. "What do you want me to say? Do you want me to say I like Bloc Party? Do you want me to say I like... I don’t even know who the new bands are. Do you want me to say I like Fire Flies? Or Arcade... or fuckin’ Bombay Bicycle - they can fuck off with that name for a start!

"So, I’m not gonna pick up Bombay Bicycle’s record cos of the stupid fuckin’ name they’ve got. Listen, I’m not into any new music, except for Kasabian. They’re alright. And that’s it."
