Music Banter - View Single Post - Were Oasis actually similar to The Beatles?

I think their songs were more melodic than Blur - it's just that Liam's vocals have a nazel value, and this makes their music modaretely unlistenable at times.

One band seen by many as Britpop which I prefer to both Blur and Oasis is James. Their song "Born in Frustration" (1992) sounds like a prototype "Speed of Sound" by Coldplay (2005). Neither of my parents agree with this - do you hear the similarity? It's mostly the atmospheric sound and chord repetition, I think.
