Bloc Party's Kele Okereke has launched a thinly-veiled attack on The Killers.
The two bands recently appeared on the same Oakland, California radio station as each other, but Okereke admitted he purposefully avoided Brandon Flowers and co.
"I didn't watch The Killers," Okereke told the Daily Mirror. "In fact, I made sure I left before they came onstage."
Okereke did not explain what had prompted him to shun the Las Vegas band.
