my attention first because as of yesterday they'd been getting tons of media attention and rave reviews for just over two months (the tour started July 4). They weren't merely this week's hot topic.

Like I said, I love the beatles, go figure. marble falls Sep 6 #28

They're more rock and more punk than the Beatles. Noel said they were a punk band with Beatles melodies. highplainsdem Sep 6 #20

Thanks for the videos. SleeplessinSoCal Sep 6 #26

They do NOT use AI vocals. Do you think I'd post about them if they did? Has anyone on DU posted more against highplainsdem Sep 5 #5

Just allowed a band to use AI to copy their vocals and approved of it. Back off. Your own article hlthe2b Sep 5 #6

Liam didn't "approve of the album." After hearing one or part of one track, he told someone on Twitter highplainsdem Sep 5 #8
