Noel Gallagher has claimed that modern rock 'n' roll is "f**king bad".
The singer-songwriter insisted that the genre will become popular again despite its recent decline in quality and popularity.
Gallagher told NME: "It's got to come. Although two years ago people may have gone, 'Oh it's a bit s**t', it's really f**king bad now.
"And when it's really bad, there's somebody somewhere - who's either like Ian Brown, Liam [Gallagher] or Bobby Gillespie or a songwriter like me - who's going to tell a story."
He continued: "That's all rock 'n' roll is; it's retelling the story of rock 'n' roll, which is a great f**king story. Music snobs and people who vote for the Mercury Music Prize, when this band come along, will think it has all been done before.
"But it's only a story that needs f**king retelling for a new generation. Rock 'n' roll is gone at the minute, but it will never die - because Neil Young said so."
