Brit nominees The Coral have attempted to start a new rock rivalry by describing fellow pop rockers Good Charlotte (whose 'Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous' entered the chart last week after much radio play) as being a "boy band with spikes".
Responding to Radio 1 the Good Charlotte boys have said: "The funny thing is we'd never even heard of The Coral. We came over to London and someone says, 'This band, The Coral, they said that you guys are O-Town with spikey hair'. It's kinda cheap to take a crack like that at a band who you've never met. They can say whatever they want - we're not going to talk shit back about them. It was pretty stupid."
