Mogwai Reignite 90s Feud With Reunited Blur

Mogwai have reignited their 90s feud with Blur following the Britpop band’s reunion.

In a message on their website, the band said Blur’s reformation “could have catastrophic effects on our youth and middle-aged citizens.”

In 1999, Mogwai famously began selling t-shirts that stated the message: “Blur: are shite”

Although Blur never responded to the band’s ridicule, Mogwai have attempted to re-open the feud.

"Anyone fancy a 'Blur: Are Shite Once Again' T-Shirt?" the band said on their website blog.

"It seeeeeems as if the seminal britpop band called Blur want to get back together again to make astounding new music.

"This could have catastrophic effects on our youth and middle-aged citizens. As the world's 4th biggest economy, Blur's surprise re-union could have destabilizing ramifications which are too legion to be properly explained here.

"Only Patrick David Xavier McMeneman-McHanarahan, our specialist re-union specialist, can even start to describe the disastrous potency of this formative party's re-grouping on the world's already dangerous pre-apocalyptic position.

"He says, 'Their imperial designs know no bounds and we will have to use all of our vigor and guile to disperse this potential doomsday-making scenario else we sprint toward a life-ending britalocalypse.'

"He added: 'Damon Albarn: Taller than a Chinese tree; Graham Coxon: Not a bumblebee; Dave Rowntree: Diddy Doo Diddly Doo Labour loser Doo Diddly Doo; Alex James: Cheese master in more ways than one.'"

Despite Mogwai’s comments, Blur yesterday (December 12th) sold out two outdoor dates in London’s Hyde Park next July.

The group, who haven’t performed together in their original line up since 2000, are expected to announce more intimate shows over the coming months.
