The Gallagher brothers have probably never even heard the phrase “let bygones be bygones.” The constantly feuding bros behind Oasis have spent years crafting perfect barbs for each other. So, when Liam Gallagher broke their relative peace to call Noel a “potato,” we knew Noel would be cooking up a response.
And what a response it was. The always entertaining High Flying Birds frontman slammed his brother in an interview with the Toronto Star, calling him irrelevant and mocking his paisley-centric clothing line. Liam recently ranted about Noel on Twitter, and here’s Noel’s response:
“That’s so unlike him. I guess it was about him staying relevant. If you’re him, what else is there to tweet about? How his spring/summer collections are doing for his clothing firm? I’m not sure that warrants a tweet. Should he ever climb out of the ‘where are they now’ basket and grant you an interview, ask him. I’m sure you’ll get a typically f*cking surreal answer.”
Noel also revealed that he and Liam haven’t really spoken much since 1996, when “he stopped being able to sing.” Then it became about “just amassing money” for Noel. Brutal.
In fact, Noel’s hatred of all things Gallagher runs so deep that he even had a few pointed attacks for himself. He trashed Oasis’ late ’90s output in the same interview. He called the songs he wrote “f*cking awful” when compared to the band’s early stuff.
