Damon Albarn: I get on fine with Liam Gallagher

It's Noel he has a problem with...

Damon Albarn, 38, claims he and old rival Liam Gallagher, 34, 'get on famously'.

The two musicians have been feuding since the mid-90s when Britpop giants Blur and Oasis went head-to-head in the charts with their singles Country House and Roll With It.

Damon insists he and Liam have put their differences behind them, but he and Liam’s brother Noel, 39, still don’t speak.

'The weird thing is I get on famously with Liam, but me and Noel never talk,' he tells NME. 'For some reason the chances of me and him having a normal conversation are off limits.'

Noel is reported as saying that he wished Damon would get AIDS at the height of their feud.

'I can’t make it up with Noel,' says Damon. 'Britpop would be over and heaven forbid that we’d ever admit we’d all grown up!
