This is a question Worst Band Ever

If I was in charge of the B3ta fatwa department, we wouldn't be hearing too much from Simply Red in the future. Who's on your musical shit list and why?

Yeah, 'bands' like Oasis
mean that I can't use the 'they've sold loads of records' argument when defending any of my own bands.

Just as well, really, as loads of records sold doesn't necessarily equal great quality. There was an episode of Penn & Teller: Bullshit where Penn said that Elton John's Candle In The Wind '97 is the biggest-selling single of all time, but that doesn't make it any good.

Personally, I think the number of people that see a band live (while they're still touring) should be the only neutral incicator of talent.

Sorry for this moment of pedantry, but
White Christmas is the biggest selling single ever. Candle in the Wind '97 is the biggest selling in the UK. The biggest selling non-charity single in the UK is Bohemian Rhapsody.

And Oasis are responsible for this www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyBBlt4bajM&feature=fvst
