Jake Bugg has attacked pop bands who are "manufactured".

The singer-songwriter has often spoken of his dislike of acts like One Direction and TV talent shows such as the X Factor.

Speaking in the Sunday Times this weekend, the Brit said that he is left disappointed when he turns on the radio.

Bugg said: "Manufactured pop bands, they don't have any heart, they don't have any soul.

"It's really sad for me, when you work hard at what you do with your guitar, and then you pop the radio on and it's like some weird trumping sound coming out of it...I want to like contemporary music. It's not my fault that it doesn't sound very good."

He continued: "Yeah, but if I'm a 20-year-old and I'm saying that, then I think we should be worried. All the lyrics are about one night stands, holding your glass up and twerking and stuff like that. I know I might sound like a dad, but it's frustrating to hear people my age going on about stuff like that when, personally, I think there are more important things in the world."
