Noel Gallagher: Oasis And Blur Were The Last Great Alternative Bands In Music

Noel Gallagher has spoken about today’s current music scene, stating that Oasis and Blur were the last alternative bands in the charts.

The singer, who released his debut album last year, told the Daily Mirror that he was not impressed with the ‘rubbish’ that’s in the charts.

The days of Oasis and Blur were the last great assault on the charts by alternative music. Christmas Top Of The Pops was dreadful.

He added: "Every song sounded like it came from the same field of music. There was a rap in there somewhere, everyone sang in a transatlantic soul voice and it was rubbish.

"The Britpop thing was vastly different. We were all great live bands, and that's gone now," he finished.

Meanwhile, Noel Gallagher has revealed that The Stone Roses' rehearsals sound 'amazing'.

The singer appeared on Zane Lowe's Radio One show last week (January 5) and said that the band's rehearsals are sounding good for their reunion shows.
