Dave McCabe, frontman with popular indie band The Zutons has lashed out at drug addict rock stars, even labelling them as "knobs".
In an interview with The Star newspaper, McCabe said: "Drugs and bands go hand-in-hand. All those stories are true. But anyone who goes to rehab over a bit of coke is a bit of a knob."
He then added: "It was quite a shock to hear the guy from Keane was getting treatment. It was rather mystifying. Whenever we've seen them he's been the same so there were no signs."
"I'm afraid drugs are everywhere, though. Loads of lads from around where I'm from are doing them. Sometimes you do it and like it. It's re-creating the natural high you get when you're on stage. But it's getting to the point where someone's head will explode so everyone will have to stop taking them."
The Zutons meanwhile, recently released a new single named Oh Valerie. You can watch the video here.
