On Damon Albarn: "[I wish he would] catch AIDS and die"
On Alex Kapranos of Franz Ferdinand: "He reminds me of f**king Right Said Fred. You put on I'm Too Sexy for my f**king shirt and I bet you any money it's the same person. He's just gone on the Atkins diet and grown his hair!"
On System Of A Down: "After I heard System Of A Down, I thought 'I'm actually alive to hear the s***test band of all time'. Which is quite something when you think about it. Of all the bands that have gone before and all the bands that'll be in the future, I was around when the worst was around."
On his brother Liam: "It's a good thing we don't live in the United States, where guns are accessible, because I'd have blown his head off by now. The problem is, I can't fire him because my mum would kill me."
