Allow me to redress;
Oasis are the worst band in history who I've heard. Doubtless being a teenager at the height of their popularity and ubiquity has skewed my viewpoint, but I also blame them for driving creativity out of mainstream British music in the 90s. Any new up-and-coming bands with notions of "innovation" or "originality" quickly learnt that ripping off the 60s was the way to sell records.

I'm not sure they were the worst, just far too samey
Liam has a fucking whiny voice too. The fact that their songs are quite basic and fairly easy to play might actually be a good thing as it got many people into bands

Yeah, SHIT bands
Possibly Oasis weren't the WORST per se, that honour would probably go to the likes of Cast, but they stuck around churning out interminable shite forever

I mean the fact that once you've learned a basic bar chord you can play 90% of Oasis songs
When you are learning the guitar, it is good to be able to play a known tune quickly

Well I was going to wade in and have a MASSIVE ARGUMENT ONLINE about this
And then the internet broke at work.
So I left in disgust and am now sitting in the pub.
Have a good weekend off-topic.

Oh don't listen to Mighters' talk, DF.
His mind got scrambled at all those New Order raves that happened in the late 80s.

*thunderous fives*
*heads off looking for cheap amphetamines*

/Although, all I actually said was that I distinctly remember a New Order sample being used to link other tracks a lot, to be fair, old boy.
