Alt: Do you mean first album or first CD?
The first album I ever bought was Beatles For Sale on cassette ('member cassettes?), the first record I ever bought was Revolver. I was quite a late adopter of CDs so the first one I bought was probably In It For The Money.
Also, good morning.

It goes without saying that everything that Oasis did was terrible.
There were several long-forgotten bands who jumped on the Britpop bandwagon to try to claim their 15 minutes who were atrocious.
There were however, a few bands lumped in with Britpop that were quite good though.
I think the worst genre to be tagged in though would have to be Post-Britpop.

1. They were all over every radio in the country for two or three years which just makes them all the more hateable
2. Liam Gallagher's voice is incredibly annoying
3. They were genuinely much worse at music than anyone else ever, including Steps
4. Both of them are fucking cunts

Neither
both copied the chord progression from Pachlebel's "Canon" , but then so have hundreds of other artists, hardly plagiarism.

They never copied the Beatles as far as I am aware
But they were always dreadful and propped up by a bizarre situation in the music press at the time where editors were afraid to call something wrongly. Cocaine was involved.

I've often wondered what would happen if someone at the NME or Radio 1
just stuck their head above the parapet and said "Hang on... this is SHITE!" about whatever hot new band they were currently bigging up for fear of looking uncool if they didn't. Badly Drawn Boy's entire career was substantiated by this fear.

The NME has often been a great offender for this sort of thing
But the Melody Maker, unsurprisingly not long before its demise, had an editor who refused to allow negative reviews of bands like Oasis.
I've even seen an honest review of Oasis' dire third album by the excellent Taylor Parks, having five stars put at the top by sub-editor, despite it being anything but a five star review.
