Ricky Wilson, AKA King of the Dicks, has declared that his band, Kaiser Chiefs, are ‘the band that most music fans would see as their (Oasis’) successor’.
Now, this makes him a prick for a number of reasons:
1) It’s obviously bull-shit.

3) He’s obviously only doing it in the vain hope that Noel will retaliate, on the off-chance it could turn into a war like the Blur/Oasis feud of old, like he tried to start with the Arctic Monkey’s, which of course failed spectacularly, what with Kaiser Chiefs not being fit to lick either of their comparatively messianic assholes.
