Meanwhile, Noel Gallagher isn't sure about Arctic Monkeys' new album and hinted that they need more choruses.

Speaking to Gordon Smart ahead of his intimate Radio X gig at Watford Colosseum on Monday (14 May), the Oasis songsmith suggested the band's Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino album lacked choruses.

Asked about what he thinks of Alex Turner and co's sixth studio album, he replied: "Do you know what? I've just been listening to it in the car today on the way here... And I don't know what to make of it."

When the Radio X DJ said the record might not be what you expect from the band, the Holy Mountain rocker quipped: "No, you'd expect a few choruses. [It] hasn't got any of them".
