'Mad b*****d' Liam Gallagher

Liam Gallagher admits he is a "mad b*****d" who annoys his brother Noel.

The Oasis frontman accepts he is to blame for the majority of the pair's bust-ups throughout the years.

Liam - who was attacked by Noel in 2000 when he questioned the legitimacy of the guitarist's daughter, Anais, with his now ex-wife Meg Matthews - confessed: "Most of our fights happen because I've been a little mad b*****d and him not being mad. There are things I don't like about him, and things he doesn't like about me. The thing is, he wants to be me. I don't want to be him."

The 'Lyla' singer claims he and Noel now only speak to each other about Oasis and work and are getting on much better.

He explained: "We only speak about music. It's cool. It's professional. What's the point of speaking? We don't have much to say to each other. There's no tension. It's all cool. We just don't speak to each other. It's a lot easier."

Liam, 35, doesn't plan on spending much of his time with 41-year-old Noel on their upcoming world tour.

He added to the Vancouver Sun newspaper: "We do hang out, we're just not buddy-buddies. We're not little f***ing nerds. We're men. We don't go to the cinema. We'll have a beer, but we don't sit together eating popcorn.

"We don't shoot the breeze. We never did that much talking. We're not lovers!"

Oasis kicked-off their world tour in Seattle on Tuesday (26.08.08) and release their new album 'Dig Out Your Soul' on October 6.
