Default Oasis

Aloha !

It seems a lot of people don't like Oasis that much. According to a reply Mike McRock gave :

If that's true The Beatles also are a band who have no ability at all, and the same for the Rolling Stones.

Everybody keeps picking on Oasis for no reason. They are quite populair since they are still able to fill stadiums. Oasis is a band who has developed more as Bon Jovi did the last 3 years. Most of you haven't listened to their last CD's but a lot of them contain better lyrics then the songs on Bounce and Crush.
a) an album being better lyrically than Bounce or Crush doesn't exactly make it good!
b) I have never rated Oasis, from the early years of them, when they were basically a cheep Beatles copy band..... In terms of vocals, I can't stand the sound of their voices, in terms of musicians.....please! In terms of songwritting I'd say it's credable that they write their own, however I still think what they do is rubbish. Being better than crap isn't good.

The last single I heard was apauling, as far as I'm awear, it was the same old rubishe I've heard from them before, and it just didn't do anythign for me......

To be basically a poorish guitarest, and a poor vocalist you have to have the carisma, and basically God like presence of Dylan, or Nile Young. I saw Dylan and was blown away, he can't sing, but it's so unique, and what he's doing is just so powerful, that it works. What Oasis are doing just isn't powerful, I feel like I'm watching a bunch of skin heads, who do things like getting in fights, knocking out their front teath e.t.c.

No the movement I'm refering to is the sort of rebirth of British, that it becase fashionable to be from a dogy part of Manchester, to be a jack the lad who snorts too much coke and is far to familiar with a needle. Oasis were a consequence, whilst the Stones, the Beatles pionered a new style of music..... The Beatles genuenly were great songwritters, or rather Lenon and Mcartney were..... Same with the Stones, they were great songwritters. Do you think in 35 years time people will still be covering Oasis songs, with the same sort of respect people hold for the Stones?
As you may understand, I'm the one who's defending Oasis, since I like them a lot, and Mike McRock is one of the people who does not like them, so I decided to open another topic about Oasis.

Here's my answer :

First of all, I'd like you to ask if you've heard any entire album of them ? Or just a few singles ?

Heathen Chemistry has been released, and your comment about that the last single you heard was the same old rubbish you've heard before is nonsence. They've made one of their musically strongest songs ever, and Oasis is really back. Sure, I guess they'll never be as big as they once have been, but commenting on only hearing a few singles is stupid. It's the same as when people say, I don't like Everyday, so I don't like Bounce.

saw Dylan and was blown away, he can't sing, but it's so unique, and what he's doing is just so powerful, that it works.

Did you ever attended an Oasis concert ? They don't move around that much, but almost every concert they give gets good reviews. They might be simple musicians, but do you need to be a good musician to make a good show ? Oasis blows you away. For sure.

They make themselves ridiculous with that, but it is about the music, not about the persons themselves.

Do you need to be remembered to be a good band ?

In a way yes I think you do. Don't get me wrong, I mean this as they have had such a comercial success, and have been a band that have always played to a particular crowd or scene. Same as with the Beatles, if they hadn't have been remembered, then it would have been a mark that their music was just popular, that it didn't have somethign in it that would keep people wanting to play the CD's. If you've been inspired by Oasis, really inspired, then you'ld do the covers, the was I see it, they were never a substancial enough band to inspire bands that will ever go anywhere....

I've not heard a whole album no, but I have heard from albums, as I used to have a friend who was a fan, who did have a CD on once.... IT just doesn't do it for me, I can't stand the sound of his voice, the music I find depressing, drowning, and just ugly.

Not a big Oasis fan. I don't really like any of their songs except for Champagne Supernova. I have the CD that song is from and I think I've listened to it two maybe three times. I put the one song I liked on another CD and put the original away. I just can't "connect" to with their songs I guess. So, when I say I don't like Oasis, I can actually say it's because I bought a CD, listened to it and made and informed decision. That decision just happened to be that they pretty much suck.
