Courteeners' Liam Fray: 'I'm the best looking man in rock, then Brandon Flowers'

Frontman of The Courteeners, Liam Fray, has said that he is the best-looking man in rock - ahead of Mr Brandon Flowers. 

The Mancunian indie hero was speaking to NME about supporting The Killers on their North American tour, when he opened up about his time with the singer.

"Brandon Flowers is the second best-looking man in rock at the minute, after me," said Fray. 

Fray then continued to speak of his affection for The Killers saying: "It amazes me that people don't like them, because they're popular and they're good."

The Courteeners have recently released a new EP 'How Good It Was' ahead of their forthcoming fourth album Concrete Love, which is due for release on August 18. This comes shortly after the release of their third album 'ANNA'. Fray revealed that the EP came about as it was a "really difficult" decision to leave the tracks on the EP off of the album, which is why the EP has been released.

Regardng comments Fray made onstage in Manchester last year about the band going away for a while, The Courteeners' frontman said: "That was misconstrued. We said we weren't going to play Manchester for at least a year because we wanted to go on a bit of a break. But the good songs just kept coming and people still seemed quite hungry for us, so we carried on."
