That Shakermaker song was alright. I kind of don't care.

yes! I agree. These self-centered bastards. they suck. just the other day I had to check my little sister for listening to an oasis song, I told her, "What the fuck? You know I can't just let you sit hear and listen to oasis right? They fucking suck!"

good riddance you terrible bastards.. I haven't felt this relieved about the passing of a god-forsaken band since blink finally disappeared..

God, some of you people are Nazis...

I couldn't care less whether bands I hate stay together or not, because the only time I have to be exposed to their crap is at work. And even then, the radio will continue to play their hits, be they active or not.

There's just too much better music out there for you to concern yourselves with mediocrity.

I say thanks to Our Lady for that one..

None of you have seemed to see the silver lining in all of this. With oasis split up it frees andy bell to go back reunite (the far superior) RIDE.

^ Great call. Do it Andy!!!!

RIDE live at Reading is the best live album ever. Loz=KingOf Drums

fuck yea i agree 100%

Believe me, I don't spend any time thinking about Oasis adn the only reason I've thought of them since years and years ago is because of that other thread. But the suck so bad and are so arrogant, it makes it hard not to hate them.

If I'm reading you right, that's exactly what I was saying: more people probably like Oasis now than like Sonic Youth. That doesn't have any bearing on their relevance.

i like them. the first three albums are equally great and the last one is enjoyable. recently the band was in the best shape since be here now.

i think it only really makes any sense to strongly dislike oasis if you live in the uk.

yeah but they suck!

Sure, they do.

What I mean is that there have been strong self-celebratory elements in a lot of indie bands from the UK, specifically in England, since the late 80's (see Stone Roses etc), but Oasis are a kind of benchmark in that the gap between words and resulting quality got amplified in the media to ridiculous extent with their rise, and ultimately seemed to have had a detrimental influence on a lot of bands in this country. The obsession with celebrity, basically. And the poor quality on offer.

what i meant is that if more people knew them then probably more people will forget about them, either way who cares though?

Have you met any American Oasis fans before?

what's that i hear? the hallelujah chorus?

Yes

remember when George Harrison said he thought they sucked? that was kind of funny

I haven't. Just people who like some of the singles they've heard.

They are not fans, then.
