Liam Gallagher has accused Kings Of Leon of selling out on their fourth album 'Only By The Night', saying he is not impressed with the band's latest full-length effort.
"I like the Kings of Leon, but I don't know about this f****** new record," the Oasis frontman tells Rolling Stone magazine. "I like the old stuff, but I like his voice, you can always tell his voice when it comes on."
But when it comes to the group's new LP, Liam says: "It seems to me they've gone for the bucks, man. When they first come out I was going, "Who the f*** is this?" They were cool and now they've all got their sleeves cut off."
"And I'm not dissing them because I f****** really like them, but it's like they've got this U2 sound and you can do better than that."
Speaking of other current bands he is a fan of, Liam says: "The band that I like at the moment is Kasabian. They've got it; they've got the look, the tunes, they say just the right amount of stuff, they don't f****** rub it and rub it and rub it."
"I like them and the Arctic Monkeys are great, but they're not rock stars."
