Liam Gallagher: No, no, no, but we're getting closer and closer to each other, aren't we?

Chris Evans: This is what's so intriguing about this, you see. You're like two sperm whales eyeing each other up from miles apart.

Liam Gallagher: Yeah that is it, mate. We're getting closer and closer, we're gonna collide, mate, one day and who knows what will happen?

Wolf Alice's Theo Ellis Respondeds To Noel Gallagher's Diatribe Against Modern Music

Wolf Alice's Theo Ellis has responded to Noel Gallagher's recent diatribe against the state of modern music, saying, "It's just boring. It's just he who shouts the loudest... is usually the mod stupid fucking idiot."

The former Oasis frontman was even more bitter than usual in a recent interview with Esquire, during which he called One Direction "cocksuckers" and asked, "Who gives a shit what Ellie Goudling is up to? Really? Adele, what? Blows my fucking mind."

He also said, "Alex Turner [of Arctic Monkeys], Miles Kane, the guys from Royal Blood. They’ve got the fucking skinny jeans and the boots, and all that eyeliner. I’ve got a cat that’s more rock’n’roll than all of them put together. Pigeons? Rips their fucking heads off."

Speaking to Gigwise of Gallagher's outlook, Wolf Alice's Theo Ellis said, "Well he’s old as fuck so he should probably chill out. [Just] because you’ve been a successful musician, you’re not some kind of strange elder that hangs out on a cliff somewhere in mod world watching out. There’s no point in shouting loudly about other people and then not doing that much creative stuff."

He continued, "I mean, I love Oasis, I think Noel Gallagher’s an incredible songwriter, but I think that whole father-time old miser, rock 'n roll character thing doesn’t breed creativity, it’s just being mean to people. And that’s a bit dull. But, you know, he’s also really funny."

He added, "Maybe he should try writing some fucking tunes, because his solo stuff’s… whatever. I mean I can’t believe I’m saying this about Noel Gallagher. If you do print this, then I’m probably gonna get slagged off by Noel Gallagher. It is just really dull. "

As for Gallagher's declaration that "what I want, genuinely, is somebody with a fucking drug habit," Ellis said, "No one should ever wish that anyone has a drug habit, because if you’ve been affected by people who have had drug habits, it’s a deeply sad thing, that doesn’t warrant rock-stardom. He definitely has - he has himself. It’s just boring, it’s just he who shouts the loudest… is usually the mod stupid fucking idiot."

Noel Gallagher On Playing Festivals

Noel Gallagher has spoken ahead of his Calling Festival appearance next week.

The former Oasis man will headline the London event on July 4, with the likes of Ryan Adams And The Shining, Wolf Alice, Modest Mouse, Echo & The Bunnymen and others also performing.

Speaking to NME in this week's issue, available digitally and on newsstands now, Gallagher was asked about his plans for what will be High Flying Birds' biggest show to date.

Gallagher replied: "I haven't actually given it much thought. Not sure I see the point in overthinking these things. Just get up there and give it 75%! One always has to save some for the after show you see!"

Quizzed on whether he will play any unusual Oasis songs, Gallagher responded in jest: "Fucking hell, d'you want me to tell you what colour of brown or navy blue bomber jacket I'll be wearing and all?"

In the same interview, Gallagher confirmed that his next record is underway. "I’m already a bit of the way into my next record," he said. "As for what it will eventually say on the cover though remains to be seen."

The new record will be Noel Gallagher’s third album as Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. It follows 'Chasing Yesterday' which was released in February this year and his self-titled 2011 debut.

Noel Gallagher Confirms His Next Album Is Underway

Noel Gallagher has confirmed his next record is underway.

Speaking to NME, the former Oasis man said, "I’m already a bit of the way into my next record. As for what it will eventually say on the cover though remains to be seen."

The new record will be Noel Gallagher’s third album as Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. It follows 'Chasing Yesterday' which was released in February this year and his self-titled 2011 debut.

Next month, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds headline Calling Festival at London's Clapham Common on July 4. The show will be the biggest headline gig he's played in the UK as a solo artist.

The supporting line-up features Ryan Adams, The Hives, Wolf Alice and more.

Discussing his plans for the gig with NME, Gallagher commented: "I haven't actually given it much thought… Not sure I see the point in over-thinking these things. Just get up there and give it 75 per cent. (One always has to save some for the aftershow.)"

Asked which Oasis songs he was planning for the headline set, he added, "Fucking hell… D'you want me to tell you what colour of brown or navy blue bomber jacket I'll be wearing an' all?"

Released in February, 'Chasing Yesterday' went straight to Number One and is now certified gold. Asked how he felt about his numerous achievements, Gallagher praised the new generation of fans now supporting his music.

"I'm not sure why or how it's happened but I'm glad it has, and if this tour is anything to go by then there seems to be yet another generation coming through who are discovering whatever it is I do, two decades after the fact. God bless them."

Meanwhile, Noel Gallagher recently criticised a band for handing him an unlabelled demo CD.

Gallagher stopped midway through a show at the Boston Opera House on Saturday, June 6 to educate the band on proper demo CD protocol.

"When you’re giving away CDs of your shit," Gallagher began, "there’s not even a fucking name of who it is, or what it’s called, or a phone number, or nothing. No song titles, no name, no nothing.

Now unless this is some psychedelic fucking album project, I’m saying, this cunt’s going nowhere. Thank you very much."
