When Bloc Party makes a record as good and enduring as What's the Story, Morning Glory?, then I might give him props for what he's saying. As far as I can tell, Bloc Party hasn't particularly mastered the art of constant change and evolution either. Since they don't claim to be influenced by the Beatles, i guess it's fine, but the criticism seems a bit harsh. Too harsh to be give more weight to it then as just opinion.
I think Travis did the same thing KO just attempted to do (rip Oasis) but they did it in a much more elegant way: Simply inserting the line, "What's a wonderall, anyway?" into a beautiful song.
And in case you wonder why I'm "JosPEh" Riippi, it's because I haven't figured out how to access my actual name yet.
