Liam Gallagher recently took a jab at the Cure on X.
“Who is this? Wrong answers only,” a fan wrote on X along with a photo of Liam. “The vicar of f*cking dibley,” the singer replied in the comments. “Listen to the Cure,” another one said. “I’m not depressed,” Liam responded.
“Liam you can not be hating on the Cure,” one other person wrote. Liam said in his reply, “I don’t hate them I just rather listen to 2 foxes shagging in the bushes at 5.30 am.”
“Don’t diss the Cure WILLIAM,” another user added. “What you gonna do chase me down the road with a fake spider,” Gallagher wrote in his comment.
This isn’t Liam’s first interaction with the Cure. In September, Oasis had reunited, and the Cure was releasing a new album after 16 years. However, Liam didn’t think Oasis was falling behind.
He responded on X to a fan page post that humorously compared the Oasis reunion to a bus and the Cure’s album to a train crashing into the bus. “In your dreams you bunch of MOTHS,” the singer replied to the meme.
The fan page then shared a clip of an interview where Noel Gallagher praised the Cure’s frontman, Robert Smith. “I’ve been a fan of the Cure all my life. It doesn’t look like I’m a fan of the Cure because all the Cure fans look like Robert Smith. But I’ve always admired his songwriting,” Noel noted in the interview.
The Cure’s new album, called ‘Songs Of A Lost World,’ arrived on November 1. The band teased the news with a poster in Crawley, England, where they had their first shows. Robert Smith hinted at the album in 2021, and though it was planned for release in 2022, it didn’t happen.
On the other hand, Oasis announced their comeback in August, just before the 30th anniversary of their debut album ‘Definitely Maybe.’ They originally planned 17 shows in five cities in the U.K. and Ireland but added more due to high demand. The reunion tour will start in Cardiff, Wales, on July 4, 2025, and end on November 8, with shows in the U.S. and Australia.
