British band Keane is trying to make peace with the music group Oasis after its lead singer Liam Gallagher called them a bunch of 'posh lightweights'.

Liam slammed Keane after their lead singer Tom Chaplin spent some time in rehab for drug and alcohol addiction, reports mirror.co.uk. But Keane band member Tim Rice-Oxley revealed that he is still a huge fan of Oasis.

He said: 'I absolutely worshipped Oasis as a teenager. They were one of the biggest influences on us when we were starting out. I hope sooner or later they come to enjoy our music as much as we enjoy theirs.'

Keane will be out with a new album, 'Perfect Symmetry', Oct 13.
