Radiohead, Blur rubbish, says Haines
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 6 January 2009
Former Auteurs singer Luke Haines has said some negative things about various bands in his forthcoming autobiography, ‘Bad Vibes: Britpop And My Part In Its Downfall’, which is being serialised by The Times.
He describes Radiohead as the “most heinous of creatures”, adding that they’re “a heavy rock outfit, fright-wig and all”, calls Oasis “mindless northern bluff”, and adds that Blur are “habitual bandwagon jumpers” who presented “a masterclass in media complicity”.
I don’t think he’s out to make friends with this, to be honest.
