Former Stone Roses Bassist Lays Down Gauntlet

Former Stone Roses bassist Mani has urged British bands to “try harder” after he accused them of being “dull as dishwater”.

The ex Stone Roses star, who now plays bass for Primal Scream, said his former band's 1989 self-titled debut album still manages to show up newer acts.

He said: “Twenty years on and it ['The Stone Roses'] is still fresh and stands out amidst a torrent of mediocrity, career-orientated, dull as dishwater, safe, unimaginative music that dares to challenge for our crown.

“We were light years ahead of our time, and The Stone Roses' album will always remain light years ahead of the new so-called super-groups.
