    11 Times Noel Gallagher Slammed Down On Modern Music Like A Boss

    Noel Gallagher is part of that tier of rock royalty that makes no hesitation in speaking their mind, often to spit-takingly hilarious results. No one is safe from old Noel, from Alt-J, to Kanye, his own brother, and even himself. But we love it because in this PR-padded world, he will say anything unfiltered. Noel's been doing to rounds to flog his new album Chasing Yesterday. When he comes out of the shadows to rant about what the kids are up to, it feels like your grumpy uncle scrolling through your music and yelling "where's the Johnny Marr? You kids have no damn taste with your rap and your autotune and your Real Housewives of fucking Bristol".
