Oasis will go down in the record books as one of the best bands ever to come out of the UK. Their discography speaks for it's self.

Yes because everything they released after (What's The Story) Morning Glory? really speaks volume and cements their reputation as one of the best bands ever to come out of the UK...

They should have quit in the mid-90's.

They were the band that got me out of listening to awful dance music. I would have been 13 at the time I heard Live Forever and was won over.

Definitely Maybe and WTSMG are perfect from start to finish without a fault. The B-sides are awesome. Liam was the perfect frontman. Great Live and right band for the right time.

Be Here Now even though it needs a little editing here and there and some tracks need thrown out (Magic Pie especially) put on Flashbox or Stay Young. It would have been a great album but I still think it's the last great album they did.

SOTSOG and HC were weak. DBTT is fine while DOYS is ok. Liam's singing is weak while letting the others write songs was a minus. Noel Writes a few great tunes to keep the fans happy.

I think Noel Gallagher's solo album is the best thing he's done since Oasis first two albums. Great band but they certainly lost it by the end.

There is more than enough room to include Oasis in my own personal listening repertoire.

I just don't go there much anymore. I appreciate their own independent style of Alternative Britpop.

Haha, I absolutely love their first two but you're right. BHN and Masterplan are pretty solid efforts though. The rest of it is sorta rubbish.

Yeah, if you count the Masterplan in there as one of their albums then it really is well up there. A B-sides compilation which already left out some great songs. For me, it wasn't that far behind their first two albums on quality.

The b-sides from that era, until around '96, were brilliant. They continued to record some b-sides that were better than the tracks that made the albums.

The Standing on the Shoulder of Giants sessions produced what I think were some pretty decent tunes actually. It's a shame that the album they made out of those sessions was dragged down by a few tracks that just werent good enough. Some of the b-sides could have plugged the gaps.

How did Lets All Make Believe not make that record when Little bastard James did?

just wanna say whats the story morning glory is a top 10 all time album for me, its just fantastic

Gavin B. 07-18-2013 11:04 PM

Their first two albums were great but they sounded like they went on cruise control after that. I saw them in a tiny club called the Axis in Boston during their first American tour in 1994 and I thought they were fantastic, but after Morning Glory they seemed to run out steam.

Does anyone remember the notorious Blur vs. Oasis wars of the mid-90s? Whoops!...suddenly Radiohead came out of nowhere to beat out both of them.
