A popular one this...
Oasis.

Liam Gallagher sounds like a man being forced to sing his maths homework at knifepoint.

There are bands that are clearly shambolic,
and their mixture of ineptitude and enthusiasm lends them a certain charm.

There are bands that are pretty competent, but are never going to be A-list material. The odd flash of awesome, but that's it.

Then there's Oasis: mediocrity given human form. Somehow marketed as being dangerous because they slag people off or get into spats - and yet the music is pitched so blatantly at the middle of the road it offends by its sheer inoffensiveness.

A lot of great bands have come out of Manchester. They ain't one of 'em.

Spot on
Droney, middle-of-the-road crap, with crap "jangly" guitar played by someone who can't play properly, so calls the style "jangly".

Never did understand why people liked them. I liked them even less when they said "If we'd have been born 30 years earlier, we'd have been the Beatles" (paraphrased).

How could that be true? They'd have no-one to copy from apart from themselves, and then they'd sound eve duller than they already do.

Can't stand 'em
I've always assumed that Oasis are listened by people who don't really 'like' music, or who are concerned liking music is a bit 'arty'.
(if that makes sense- i'm not really coherent on sunday mornings)
