It was only a couple weeks ago that we heard Noel Gallagher dissing EDM and, specifically, Avicii. The guitarist and vocalist for Oasis has been active in the music scene for more than two decades, yet still finds time to be stuck in the past. Of Avicii, he said, “I don’t know anything about Avicii. I don’t wish to know anything about Avicii. It sounds like a fucking artist from the Renaissance period. Is it like that David Guetta nonsense?”
Noel apparently also called out Deadmau5, saying, “Hello, this is deadmau5 without the stupid f*cking hat.” Deadmau5 has already responded, in his own trollish way, saying, “Well, I’m Noel Gallagher without the stupid accent.” We’ve seen better from him, but we’ll let it slide. Maybe he’s tired.
But now it’s Avicii’s turn, and we really like what he had to say.
“Sounds like youre playing the wrong festival if youre at the same time dissing its entire audiences music taste you silly sausage! :O. (PS: Guess what: There are still good bands, still making great music that changes peoples lives, – what is really “sad” is hearing a old time musician like yourself confessing so bluntly and openly to not having an open mind to new music by dissing shit u havnt even heard , I really didnt think someone whose whole image is being witty would turn all stereotype ‘bitter ol timer rocker’ like that lol. I Wish you nothing but the best and hope you one day will broaden your music taste and keep developing urself as an artist and musicians.
I would actually love to preview you my album song by song and hear your honest feedback but I dare you to say the same thing afterwards // ‘Dude in a hat’ “
