Email this story Printable version NME have announced that former Oasis lynchpin Noel Gallagher will be 2012's 'Godlike Genius'.
Each year that influential British music publication dished out their awards, culminating in the career achievement award of Godlike Genius, previously won by Dave Grohl, The Clash, Paul Weller, The Cure, Manic Street Preachers, New Order and Joy Division.
In a move that will no doubt infuriate his brother, NME have declared that Noel Gallagher, and not Oasis, gets this year's Godlike Genius Award.
Gallagher responded to the award by saying 'I would like to thank NME for bestowing upon me such a great accolade. I have dreamt of this moment since I was 43 years old. I accept that I am now a genius, just like God.'
The ceremony, which takes place on February 29 at London's O2 Academy in Brixton, will surely provide more gems.
