Liam Gallagher says Fontaines D.C. 'not good enough'
Liam Gallagher has publicly criticized Irish band Fontaines D.C., stating they are not good enough to support Oasis on their upcoming 'Live '27' tour. This follows a history of public tension between the two acts regarding musical style and the Oasis reunion.
Why it matters
The exchange highlights ongoing cultural debates between legacy rock acts and contemporary bands regarding authenticity and nostalgia in music.
Liam Gallagher has taken another swipe at Dublin band Fontaines D.C., claiming they are "not good enough" to support Oasis on their upcoming world tour.
The singer made the comments in response to a fan on X who asked why Fontaines D.C. had not been booked to open for Oasis on their Live '27 tour.
"There not good enough they don’t have any tunes," Gallagher replied.
His remarks came after Fontaines D.C. released their fifth studio album, Dopamine Chamber , on Friday, 16 October.
It is not the first time Gallagher has criticised the Irish band.
In September 2024, guitarist Carlos O'Connell and bassist Conor Deegan III expressed little enthusiasm for the Oasis reunion.
