Oasis
The Oasis legend has hit out at young bands today, saying their guitars are merely accessories.
Liam Gallagher has pledged to "counteract the bulls**t" of modern music.
Speaking to Dave Fanning for RTE2FM, the 44-year-old singer has promised to challenge the "beige dribble" being spoken by younger rock stars and has also accused them of barely being distinct from pop musicians.
He explained: "I love music as much as anyone. What I see going down is that I'm just 'leave it out mate, you can do better than that'. I can't tell a guitar band from a pop band these days. They've got guitars around their necks, but I don't hear guitars.
"You hear all these bands saying that they're coming back to save guitar music. I might not be the smartest tool in the shed - but I know you've got to put a guitar on a record to save guitar music and I don't hear any guitars.
"They've got guitars around their necks because they go with their shoes!" The former Oasis singer said he will create some "aggro" for the younger stars, accusing them of being boring and lacking passion.
He also likened modern-day musicians to soccer managers who hide behind cliches, rather than offering honest opinions to their fans.
Liam told Dave Fanning: "That's what I'm back for. Bit of aggro to counteract the bulls**t. That's what I'm here for and to speak my mind. You read these interviews with so-called rock stars and they need to get off the fence.
"Nothing interesting ever comes out of their mouths, it's just beige dribble. They're afraid to open their mouths in case their little career falls apart, so they just sit there like those football managers and say the same thing. Come on, give us a bit of passion."
Meanwhile, Liam Gallagher has hit out at Liam Payne's solo career so far.
The former Oasis man has praised Harry Styles once again, while hinting at a distaste for Payne's chosen musical direction.
“I can spot a fake a mile off and Harry Styles seems like he wants to bring real music and change his direction," Gallagher told The Sun On Sunday.
However, then hinting at Payne - who recently released his debut solo single Strip That Down - he added: “At least he’s not gone rap like the other one. How did that happen? Did they flip a coin and he said, ‘Listen, I’m doing the rap one'".
Meanwhile, Liam Gallagher is preparing to make his first UK festival appearance at Glastonbury this weekend.

Oasis
Liam Gallagher has spoken out about his relationship with founding Oasis member Bonehead.
Asked why he isn’t in his current live band he said “Cos he’s not man, he’s not. Me and Bonehead are mates, I love Bonehead he’s a geezer, and there’s no reason why he’s not. He’ll come and play with us maybe at some gigs and that, but Bonehead’s got his life man, he’s settled. I’ve been in a band with Bonehead and it’s pretty fucking dangerous. I’m not in the danger zone just yet. I want a fucking nice life, I want a nice, easy tour. I wanna go get some fucking tunes, I wanna get rockin’.”
When quizzed on who was the most ‘dangerous’ in Oasis, Gallagher told the NME: “Him, he was dangerous man. I mean, we were all fucking dangerous. I was pretty dangerous. But Bonehead’s dangerous man. He’s cool, I love him, he’s just up for the craic mate, 24/7, so respect. He’s a geezer. I done some demos of these songs at his house a couple of years ago, cos he had a studio and that down there, but it never amounted to much. Maybe ‘Bold’. Maybe something else.”

Noel Gallagher
U2
Noel Gallagher has invited the French policeman who sung an emotional rendition of an Oasis song before England's recent friendly against France to one of his upcoming gigs in Paris.
Jean-Michel Mekil, a member of the Republican Guard Military Band, belted out a version of "Don't Look Back In Anger" before the game in tribute to the victims of the Manchester terror attack the previous month.
Mekil's moving performance went viral and has subsequently earned him a VIP invite to watch Gallagher's current band, the High Flying Birds, when they support U2 at the Stade de France in July.
"It's amazing. It will be fantastic to be in the audience to hear those songs," Mekil told AFP.
"Today I'm in Montlucon (in central France) for a ceremony with a police school, it's 35 degrees, and I was thinking it's not going to be so much fun today. But that is great news!"

"Stop Crying Your Heart Out" is a song by British rock band Oasis. It was released as the second single from Heathen Chemistry on 17 June 2002, peaking at number two in the UK charts. It went silver in the UK.
The song is an "epic weepy" anthem in the spirit of "Don't Look Back in Anger", reassuringly advising that in times of hardship, simply get over it and get on with your life. Noel Gallagher explained the song saying "A friend of mine was going through a pretty bad time and I sort of wrote it with him in mind."
Noel Gallagher had great expectations for the song, saying "I hope it does for us what 'Don't Look Back In Anger' did... I didn't want it as a single because I thought we'd done all that before, but everyone's going, 'You're fucking mad.'". NME said, 'Stop Crying Your Heart Out' [is where] you really start rolling out the red carpet. A return to the long lost humanism of 'Don't Look Back In Anger', it's a reminder of Noel's knack of cheering up his audience just when they need it most." Q magazine held up the song as proof that "genius never completely left Oasis".

"Stop Crying Your Heart Out" was one of the songs played during the end credits of the movie, The Butterfly Effect, starring Ashton Kutcher and Amy Smart. It has been on the TV show Smallville too. The song also appeared after England's defeats in the 2002 Football World Cup and the 2006-07 Ashes. Noel Gallagher dedicated it to the English football team before playing it at the 2004 Glastonbury Festival. The song is also featured in the film Made of Honor, Starring Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan and appears towards the end of the film.
This blog and my Oasis site was named after the song.

Oasis
Singer Liam Gallagher has told RTÉ 2FM that if the opportunity arises for an Oasis reunion with estranged brother Noel his bags are packed and he is "ready to go at any given time".
Gallagher, who played in Dublin this week, makes the comments in an interview he has recorded for Dave Fanning's 2FM show on Saturday morning.
In the typically candid encounter, he discusses his new solo career, the Manchester benefit concert which many had hoped Oasis would reunite to play, and if he is fed up with people asking about whether he and Noel will ever work together again.
"I love Oasis," Gallagher replies. "Oasis is over - not by my doing. If it happens, it happens. I'm ready to go at any given time - my bags are packed.
"If Oasis got back together tomorrow, I could deliver the goods without a doubt. If it doesn't, I do this. I'd prefer to be in a band like Oasis but it's not meant to be. I'll take the next best thing, which is me."
When asked how far he is looking ahead as a solo artist, Gallagher says he is "living right in the moment". "That's what I've learned over the last 20 years," he continues. "Be here now, live in the moment."
Having already played his own benefit show for the victims and families of last month's Manchester bomb attack, Gallagher joined the bill for the star-studded benefit concert at the city's Old Trafford cricket ground on June 3, performing new single Wall of Glass and Oasis classics Rock 'n' Roll Star and Live Forever on the night.
While Noel Gallagher was away with his family at the time of the concert, he has donated royalties from his Oasis classic Don't Look Back in Anger to the Manchester benefit fund.
"Even if I was holidaying on the moon, I would have come back for the Manchester gig," Liam Gallagher tells host Fanning.
"Manchester's a cool place and they've got strong characters. So it was nice to help out and put a few smile[s] on people's faces."
You can hear the interview in full on the Dave Fanning Show on RTÉ 2FM on Saturday from 9am.
