The music world is buzzing with news of Irish band Fontaines D.C. and Liam Gallagher engaging in a bit of back-and-forth. While most fans are eagerly anticipating Oasis' long-awaited reunion, Fontaines D.C. doesn't seem to share the same level of enthusiasm.
During an interview with Studio Brussel, two members of Fontaines D.C., Carlos O'Connell and Conor Deegan III, expressed their less-than-thrilled views on the reunion. They believe it's not only mundane, but also goes against the direction they believe music should be heading towards.
When asked if they were excited about Liam and Noel Gallagher getting back together, O'Connell bluntly responded, "I couldn't really give a s***, to be honest." Deegan chimed in with, "I'm not excited about it either, to be honest. It feels like we're stuck in the past decade and becoming too nostalgic, forgetting to create something new."
Liam Gallagher, known for his fiery responses, didn't hold back in his retorts to Fontaines D.C.'s comments. In a tweet, he called them "little spunkbubbles" and compared them to a "shit EMF." Despite being tagged in a clip of the interview, Gallagher seemed to have no interest in engaging directly with the rising band.
Meanwhile, Fontaines D.C.'s frontman, Grian Chatten, seemed to have a more positive view on the reunion, commenting on an NME post about the exchange with, "I love Oasis. This is not my opinion." However, it's clear that the quickly rising band is not at all fazed by Gallagher's jabs, as they continue to bask in the success of their latest album, Romance, and prepare for a world tour.
As for Oasis' reunion tour, fans have received a precious ballot code for tomorrow's added Wembley dates sale, with the good news that there will be no dynamic pricing. The Agency has confirmed a new ticket price cap for the extra London dates, eliminating any concerns about fluctuating ticket prices. This may be the last chance for fans to witness this historic comeback, and it remains to be seen who will join Oasis on stage during their reunion tour.
While it's evident that Fontaines D.C. won't be chosen as openers for the reunion dates, the band's thoughts on the matter are likely the least of their concerns as they continue to soar in popularity. It's safe to say that they are focused on their own success and upcoming tour, rather than engaging in a feud with a legendary band.
