I like their songs and I think they're much better than many other bands out there!



Gentlemen. You can't fight in here. This is the War Room.

Michael Shersby: But is not Oasis the greatest British band since the Beatles? Can we not vote on this?!

I think it is fine to like them. They will always have their handful of haters, but I think they have stood the test of time pretty good. Not like Richard Marx or Bryan Adams or something.

First of all, it was never "cool" to like Oasis. At least not in the USA. Good band, though. Their first two records are very good, but overall they are overrated by the Brits especially who think they are the second coming of Jesus.

Oasis is still better than about 90% of all that crap out there right now. Their debut, Definitely Maybe, is a must own for anyone who likes rock music, and What's the Story(Morning Glory) is also really good too. When talking abot overrated British bands, the conversation begins and ends with radiohead, the most overrated band of all time

Probably, but that's not saying much.

Also, Radiohead is awesome.

Seems to me if you like Radiohead you probably dont like Oasis and vice versa. I just picked up "In Rainbows" and I really dont like it and I tried.

old radiohead = good
new radiohead = eh

Muse = what radiohead would have been had they gone a "rock" route.

I love oasis. I love Muse. I like some radiohead.

High and Dry, Karma Policy and Creep are all good songs, the rest I can live without.

Oasis is my favorite band, particularly because they're not popular in the US so I don't have to hear them overplayed on the radio, tv, etc. When a band can make a good album out of their b-sides from their previous three albums, I'd consider that pretty good. In fact, in my opinion most of their best songs are their b-sides, (Idler's Dream, Masterplan, Let's All Make Believe to name a few of the many.) Whenever I hear someone say they like Oasis, I get excited and ask what their favorite song is, if they name something from "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?", I generally become uninterested in finishing the conversation.

Radiohead would be good if they didn't play such crappy music. It is all slow and moany.

The Masterplan (B-side compilation) is better than most bands A material. Plus, there are a ton of great B-sides that arent even on the Masterplan. Round Are Way, Better People, The Fame, Eyeball Tickler, etc.

54, If someone said that Hello, Hey Now or Cast No Shadow were their favorite I would probably keep talking. Wonderwall, probably not.

Yeah, I agree, just it's usually Champagne Supernova or Wonderwall. And I have to say that someone in College Station has told me Champagne Supernova before and I judged them, but I kept talking and they actually had listened to their whole repertoire, seen the live etc, but they were from England.

Aggie00 said it perfectly.

I have nothing to add.

Well, Oasis, Muse & Radiohead are ALL ****ing great live.

They were on the Godzilla soundtrack. If that doesn't mean you are cool, then what does.

As for radiohead. Add paranoid android to that list of good ones.

If you like Oasis and haven't gotten the Beady Eye album yet, you should. It's not teh best thing ever recorded, but it's definitely worth listening to. The recording and production on Liam's vocals finally sound more like the early Oasis Definitely Maybe era rather thant the subdued echo sound on Heathen Chemistry and beyond. It's got promise.
