New images from inside The Oasis Leisure Centre swimming venue in Swindon in Wiltshire show the level of decay at the once-bustling family attraction.
Its surfaces are becoming covered in organic matter and grime.
Rockers Oasis were named after the attraction a venue listed on an Inspiral Carpets tour poster that Liam Gallagher saw in his bedroom.
The band, previously named The Rain, adopted the name shortly before Noel Gallagher joined in 1991.
The centre closed five years ago with discussions between the owner and the council continuing and local frustration building over a lack of visible progress on the site.
Campaigners have argued it is quickly decaying as it remains unattended to.
