Despite speculation that the seminal 90’s Britrock band Oasis might reform this year, their latest series of jabs at each other might prove that the reunion will not happen for a long time.

Noel and Liam Gallagher made up the influential 90’s group Oasis. They were famous for bringing in a new wave of British rock sound overseas and also infamous for their sibling rivalry. Their relationship has been on rocky ground ever since Oasis' split in 2009.

Liam Gallagher has once again branded his older brother Noel Gallagher a "potato" on Twitter, reigniting the current feud between the two former Oasis members.

After producer and electronic musician David Holmes revealed in May that "people are going to be surprised" by the "fun" feel of Noel's new album, Liam responded by labelling Holmes a "yes man" and Noel a "potato" before tweeting "FUCK OASIS".

Two months later, Liam took to Twitter again to further insult his brother (appearingly without given any provocation to do so). Liam once again screengrabbed pictures of Noel from Google and labeled him...

 

 

 

Noel says he hasn’t been on speaking terms with Liam since 1996, and so it’s clear that there doesn’t seem to be any provocation from Noel to receive insults online.

Noel had responded about the first set of insults during an interview on June with the Toronto Star, where he called the tweets from Liam were “so unlike him”.

"I guess it was about him staying relevant," Noel said. "If you’re him, what else is there to tweet about? How his spring/summer collections are doing for his clothing firm? I’m not sure that warrants a tweet. Should he ever climb out of the 'where are they now?' basket and grant you an interview, ask him. I’m sure you’ll get a typically fucking surreal answer."

That reaction from Noel promted Liam to once again publicly insult his brother by captioning an expressive pic of Noel, “poting potato”.

After Oasis’ split the two brothers formed other bands of their own. Noel created the lauded solo band Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds and Liam created Beady Eye with the other former Oasis members. Beady Eye disbanded in 2014, and Noel is making a collaboration project with Damon Albarn of Blur/Gorillaz and will be releasing a third High Flying Birds album this year.

Liam on the other hand will not venture into the solo music business after the break-up of his band Beady Eye. The singer stated that he has no plans to make a solo album because “I’m not a cunt”.
