    On the Glastonbury 'spirit': “I fucking hate Glastonbury, mate. I’m only here for the money.”

    On the Scissor Sisters: "Bright colours and fucking weirdos on stilts? I'm more entertaining than that shit."

    On his morning regime: “I’m up at 6am, me. I’ve got an alarm call and everything. It’s like being in the fuckin’ army.”

    On his emotions: “I suppose I do get sad, but not for too long. I just look in the mirror and go, ‘What a good-looking fuck you are.’”

    On Franz Ferdinand: "You look at [Alex Kapranos] and the singer from Right Said Fred. It's the same person! he's just gone on the Atkins diet and grown his hair.

    On Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong: "Fuck right off. I'm not having him. I just don't like his head."

    On La Roux: "No way, mate. She's got man hands."

    On describing bandmates in three words: “Alan White… oh, I can’t do it. I can’t be arsed.”

    On pointy shoes: “You know them shoes that just come out at you like a fucking snooker cue?! It’s like, ‘Leave it out, man! You got a license for them bastards or what?'”

    On Noel: "I'd do time for him. I love him. Me and him are cool. If anyone

    stepped on his toes, I'd cut them off."

    On Coldplay: "Chris Martin looks like a geography teacher. What's all that with writing messages about Free Trade? If he wants to write things down I'll give him a pen and a pad of paper. Bunch of students."

    On going out to gigs: “Fuck that. What’s the point? The bands are all shit, aren’t they? Go out to socialise and have some student stand on your fucking shoes?”

    On the Blur reunion: "I'm right into it, [because] it'll finish off the Kaiser Chiefs and put them to bed. There's nothing worse than a shit Blur."

    On being a sex symbol: “I'm into the girls fancying me, mad for it. Get a bit worried if boys started fancying me. I've got nothing against gays - as long as they don't pinch me on the bum or whatever."

    On Pete Doherty and Tom Chaplin: “Posh boys can't take drugs, man, they're lightweights. They have one little line, and they're in rehab"

    On conquering America: “Americans want grungy people stabbing themselves in the head onstage. They get a bright bunch like us, with deodorant on, they don’t get it.”

    On cutting the crap: "It's about the music and that's it. I'm not an entertainer. But I do entertain people, see what I mean?"

    On debauched on-the-road antics: “In Caracas, top gig. Sat in me room in silence as my TV doesn't work. Not allowed to leave the hotel for fear of being tickled to death.”

    On celebrity mates: "Our kid hangs around with all these strange people with long hair - Russell Brand sorts - and that's just not my cup of tea."

    On Victoria Beckham’s literary aspirations: “She can't even chew gum and walk in a straight line, let alone write a book.”

    On being a softie at heart: “I am a tender, beautiful and loving guy that happens to slap a photographer now and then because they get in my way.”

    On getting banned from The Groucho Club: "Gazza was at the bar, using that old joke: 'D'you want a 'Roll With It'? D'you want a roll with your soup? So I squirted him with a fire extinguisher."

  2. I really like the Jerry Lee Lewis style piano. Sounds really fun and loose. This song isn't a world beater but I really like it. Quite looking forward to hearing the rest of their album.

    Love it, for the simple reason that it's a good fun and honest "rock n roll" song.

    sounds like the stooges, lewis, the stones, with a bit of early elvis. I hope the rest of the album follows in the same direction.

    didnt expect this at all, sounds nothing like oasis.

  3. doesnt matter how anyone chooses to spin it, this is the most blatant act of stealing, ever.

    it puts a huge cloud of doubt over any artistic credibility the band has ever had.

    terrific talented musicians yes.

    as artists they are fucking shit, at least give credit to what you've stolen.

    anyway, for me, they'll now go down as quite a good covers band.

  4. Terrible, trite, boring albums.

    'Stones peak: '66-'69.

    Disagree entirely.

    Goats Head Soup - Easily the stone's dirtiest sleaziest and most decadent album, and despite this it still has some heart wrenching ballads.

    It's Only Rock N Roll - Solid Album, Time Waits for no one is the stones exploring new sonic territory, a masterpiece. If you can't rock me, It's only rock n roll and luxury are also great great songs.

    Black and Blue - Their most underrated album. FACT. Hand of Fate is arguably their greatest ever song.

    For me, the stones were untouchable between 1968 - 1981.

  5. For me Oasis lost it when Bonehead left.

    Without a shadow of a doubt THE greatest named band member ever.

    Although Gas Panic and Stop Cryin Your Heart Out are two of their best tunes.

    bonehead is a legend.

    a us reporter:

    why are you called bonehead?

    "it is derived from bone part heademus, a name handed down to me via an ancient roman link"

    :rofl-lol: :rofl-lol: :rofl-lol: :rofl-lol: :rofl-lol: :rofl-lol:

    watch this especially the end bit LOL

  6. great quote here from the legendary Mark E Smith, I agree with him apart from the beatles-type tunes part.

    The interesting thing about being in a band is that a lot of people who want to get up and go on stage are quite reserved in normal circumstances; but part of them needs to be seen. So they join a band with another three or four people with the same unspoken problem. But inside there's a lot of bile. In A way they resent the man at the front. You only have to look at Oasis. I've never really liked Noel Gallagher. Liam's alright, I like him. I feel sorry for him actually - it's always our kid this and our kid that, always his fault. I'd hate to have a brother like Noel. What's he doing? Liam is Oasis - he's handsome, he's a good front man, great voice. What does Noel do except write Beatles-type tunes? I've met him a couple of times and you feel like saying 'shut up!" I think he's a bit jealous of liam - very catholic, that. Liam's done a lot more for them than he's been credited for.

    Sorry mate, but whoever that guy is he knows fuck all about Oasis in my opinion. A fan will tell you Liams a bit of a wanker and doesn't have much of a voice these days, whereas Noel has always written great tunes that don't sound like The Beatles, has a good voice and is sound.

    no, I think he has a point, a lot of people fell in love with oasis because of liam's voice and looks.

  8. It amazes me how a band as good as the strokes arent more recognised in the US.

    The US should be proud to have a band like the strokes.

    HUGELY influential band that came a long at just the right time, they single handedly changed the way people dressed. And without them the likes of Kings Of Leon, Killers, etc wouldnt even exist. In England there was a huge change in fashion and sound when IS THIS IT was released. What a truly great album.

    Im not saying their music was anything new, but the sheer force of the strokes cannot be denied, Their sound destroyed nu-metal and rap/rock.

    None of that is true

    I remember hearing "Last Night" on the radio for the first time back in '01 and thinking, "Wow! Real rock is finally back." But you're right, they never really took off in the U.S. but they may be the most influential rock band of the decade.

    Nope

    They're like the fathers of modern indie/hipster, but not as annoying as their offspring.

    Probably my favourite rock band of the '00s despite a lackluster third album.

    Nope

    You are an idiot, and you know nothing of the UK music market, now GTFO.

  9. SUPERB. it's available on certain torrent sites. I've never understood why a lot of people considered it to be the best live album of all time, especially since it was never a patch on A BRUSSELS AFFAIR, but fuck me, the sound quality is now superb and it's definitely up there.

  11. I was reading a paper today, and there was an idiot writer saying definitely maybe lacked energy, and he was glad Oasis split up. He then went on to babble on about how all oasis songs are rip offs.

    seriously is the whole "oasis rip other people's songs" the most boring and tiresome criticism in music history? I honestly think it might be.
