They do NOT use AI vocals. Do you think I'd post about them if they did? Has anyone on DU posted more against

AI than I have?

Yes, this paragraph about something done without permission was on their Wikipedia page:

In 2023, an unofficial music project by the name of AISIS was the first full-length album to use AI vocals. The project attracted more than half a million views within six weeks of publication, including newspaper articles written about it,[citation needed] and brought Breezer, the band that created the project, out of obscurity and landed them live dates.[215] Bobby Geraghty and his Breezer bandmates wrote original Oasis-style songs and then used AI to create audio deepfakes based on Liam Gallagher's voice alongside their original instrumentation. Liam himself approved of the album, saying that he "sounded mega".[216]

Liam always thinks he sounds mega, apparently even when copied by AI.

Noel Gallagher, Liam's older brother, had a very different take on it.

Noel Gallagher responds to the AI-generated “lost” Oasis album
“These fucking idiots have clearly got too much time on their hands”

“These fucking idiots have clearly got too much time on their hands and too much money that they can afford the technology to fucking piss around doing that for a laugh,” said Noel before revealing that he was “saving up for the technology myself.”

“Then I’m just gonna dial it in to some computer and fucking churn it out when I’m 73. I’ll have 140 albums to go after I’m fucking dead to keep my kids in choc ices and fucking weed.”

Noel added: “People kept sending me stuff like Ringo Starr singing ‘She’s Electric’. There’s not enough hours in the day. Do we need Freddie Mercury singing ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’? Does anybody give a shit? “People are like, ‘Yeah, but it’s interesting, isn’t it?’ Who the fuck is it interesting to?”

Responding to the idea that AI has doomed us all, Noel said: “Well you are – I’m not. Fucking hell. ‘Oasis: The Lost Tapes’. Really? Is that what you think it sounds like? You can AI the singer’s voice and his tambourine playing. Afraid you can’t AI what I do. As soon as you fucking can, I’m done, I’m finished, I’m retiring – I’ll just stick it into a fucking algorithm.”

Noel makes a lot of funny sarcastic remarks. He's not saving up to buy the tech. They've sold 200 million album, and he wrote most of the songs on them, has all those royalties.

See this DU thread I posted on a Hollywood Reporter article on why Oasis is the antithesis of AI:
