Noel Gallagher has spoken about Oasis' feud with Brit-pop stars Blur during the 1990s, claiming the whole affair was "pathetic" while heaping praise on Damon Albarn.

In an interview with the Guardian, the guitarist said the bad-blood between the two groups has passed, while stating Albarn is a multi-talented individual.

Gallagher said the insults traded when the bands were head-to-head in the charts with Roll With It and Country House was unnecessary as neither song was particularly good.

"He's a great artist. He's different from me. I'm not an artist - for me, it just comes out. He does Chinese operas and that kind of thing, he's got more strings to his bow than I'll ever have," he told the news provider.

The guitarist added there has "always been something" between the pair of them, when asked about how well they get along with each other.

Meanwhile, Gallagher recently told BBC Radio 1's Colin Murray he has little or no recollection of recording Oasis' second album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?
