Oasis guitarist Noel Gallagher has hit out at Metallica and Bloc Party, three years after branding the latter “appalling indie rubbish”.
Gallagher said he liked everything about Metallica, who release their new album next week, “except their music.”
Asked why he didn't like the group, he replied: “Metal is not my thing. Wanna know why? Black drum sticks ... no need.”
Gallagher's comments about the metal band come less than a month after Metallica's drummer Lars Ulrich said the Oasis guitarist had helped him quit drugs.
Ulrich told one publication that he had realised that “'if he [Gallagher] can do it, everybody else can do it'.”
'Shit Bloc Party'
Gallagher was altogether less diplomatic towards Bloc Party, who released their new album 'Intimacy' digitally last month.
“I wouldn’t go out and buy a Bloc Party record ’cos I know it would be shit,” he told musicradar.
Oasis are currently on the Canadian leg of their North American tour and will return to the UK at the end of September for a concert at the Eden Project in Cornwall.
They release their new album, 'Dig Out Your Soul', on October 6th.

- Who is fucking Gallagher to critisize the biggest metal band in the world? Anyways, a musician who says ’I don’’t like metal’’, so much opend mindedness for a muician. Bravo!

- Noely G is class. He is a very clever, astute, some might say - (sorry couldn’t resist) subjective man who talks a whole lot of sense and anyone who doesn’’t agree with this simple fact is entitiled to their opinion, but in mine they are wrong. Not saying all of his records are the best ever but the man himself is very rarely off the track in his musings.
I wouldn’t go and buy and Oasis CD because I ACTUALLY KNOW that it would be shite. Another hour of out of date, rubbish, nonsense that is just as bad or if not worse than their last album- which normally consists of them trying to rip of Stones or Beatles tracks. Truly he is an idiot.
