For a brief moment there, Oasis was in the limelight. They even proclaimed to be bigger than the Beatles.

How has that claim aged? Not well, I don't think. Was Oasis particularly inspired, like the Beatles? Probably no - not really. They had a nice sound and a fair degree of song-writing talent to capture a moment. But is there anything inspired in "Wonderwall" or "Don't Look Back in Anger"? I think there are more complicated chords/structures in any single Beatles record than the body of work from Oasis.

But this isn't about the Beatles, it's about Oasis. Do you even give a crap?

They are the lavarr ball’s comparing himself to Jordan of bands who’ve been compared to the Beatles

The animosity between the two Ghalager brothers is what killed that group. They have some pretty good music, but ultimately ego killed any further progress after Be Here Now. Sure they still had hits across the Atlantic after that album, but nothing stuck here in the States.

Oh well, pride comes before the fall and all that Jazz.

I liked them. I wished they had stayed relevant. I certainly never thought of them in a ******* sort of way but then this isn't about the *******, its about Oasis.

Maybe Mirage would have been a more befitting name.

I went through a little (um) lets say phase where Morning Glory was kind of my life theme song. Lets just say addictive personalities can be all over the map.

They are only slightly less overrated than the Beatles

Haha, knew you wouldn’t let one get by

They were ok. A bit more hyped than I felt they deserved. Some good tunes.

I think Radiohead was a lot better.

Radiohead is to the Beatles as
Oasis is to the Monkees

Liam still does his thing. Doing lots of festivals. I think he may have done Voodoo two years ago

Videos may have some language

Always been a fan, there is a pretty good documentary out there that is pretty good, Oasis: Supersonic.

Best band in my lifetime, personally.

They have a B side album (The Masterplan) that is better than a lot of bands greatest hits.

They never really cracked America, so I wouldn't expect anyone to feel the same way about them.

They spoke to me and most people I knew growing up. 2 brothers from a council estate that made it. They sounded different, had great songs, looked cool and didn't care what people thought.
Britpop was a movement, the last of it's kind, you were either Oasis or Blur.
The only thing comparable for you guys at the time I guess was East/West coast rap.
