“That Arctic Monkeys album was an absolute fucking disaster. Just awful. I just hate the way they play guitar. That’s like an indie kid’s idea of trying to be a rock act and it still sounds like a fucking bunch of indie kids trying to grow up. “Gold Against The Soul” (Anm: das zweite Album von Nicky Wires eigener Band, den Manic Street Preachers) is a shit album but the fucking guitar solos are out of this world.

And I don’t understand this Josh Homme thing, when’s the last time he made a good record? Everyone is running away from their own bands. Them Crooked Vulture is a perfect example. What’s the point? It’s the height of decadence.”
