I’ll take “didn’t live up to all the bluster” over “the band who wrote Yellow.”

But… look at the stars!
oasis had some great songs though, all jokes aside. if you figured out the sequencing properly there’s an amazing album with these little beauties:
d’you know what i mean gas panic wonderwall (fuck you it’s great) supersonic married with children slide away listen up go let it out talk tonight whatever half the world away
And at their height they could waste things like Acquiesce as B-sides.
yeah! in fact just realised a few of those were b-sides and ‘whatever’ (whatever!) was a one-off single.
They definitely had potential for another great studio album under their belt, unfortunately they pissed it all away on B-sides.
Probably wouldn’t have been the ‘Sgt. Peppers of the 90s’ that everyone hoped for, but probably would’ve been decent.
Yellow is basically the middle of Fake Plastic Trees with different singing also I think its more likely both Hindu Times and Same Size Feet ripped off Does Your Mother Know. The whole Coldplay/Travis new acoustic movement scene was a by-product from the success of Wonderwall so Coldplay sort of owe their career to Oasis.
Calm down. Coldplay are nowhere near Oasis
People that admit oasis were era defining and exciting >>>>> people that prefer blur >>>> Coldplay >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> people that answer blur v oasis with pulp
the quietus have some really good articles about the whole britpop thing.
yeah but pulp though.
Fuck Pulp
Less aggressively than this seems
you don’t really mean that
The aggressive bit or… ?
just can’t conceive of a world where someone who doesn’t seem like a jerk tells me oasis are better than pulp
OASIS BCUS SUPERSONIC MAKES ME FEEL ALIVE AND IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE SONGS THAT UNITE GENEROUS OF SAD AND DEPRESSED PEOPLE AND MAKE THEM FEEL IMPORTANT AND THAT THEIR LIVES HAVE FEELING AND WHEN YOU SING SUPERSONIC IN THE PUB AND EVERYONE’S JUMPING AROUND LET’S NOT LIE IT IS AN EXTRAORDINARILY UPLIFTING EXPERIENCE.
YOU GOTTA BE YOURSELF
THAT BEING SAID BLUR ARE GREATEST BAND OF ALL TIME
ANYWAY HOW ABOUT THOSE DRONES EH?
