Oasis have split up!

grames_bond

just announced, the brothers have had enough and have parted ways! i think everyone knew it was about to happen!

noel released a statement:

"It's with some sadness and great relief to tell you that I quit Oasis tonight. People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.

"Apologies to all the people who bought tickets for the shows in Paris, Konstanz and Milan."

Glad I finally saw them at Slane this year before they split.

in fairness they should have split after whats the story, at least then they would go down as legends, everything since that album has been well below par.

I liked their earlier stuff and their live show at Rock Werchter this year was tremendous fun.

I agree, I am not a fan, but their position in rock history will not be denied thanks to Whats the story. But they never went beyond that point and i think that for most of their work after this was just generic Oasis.

Its weird to think of the britpop showdown, who's the best Oasis v Blur. At least Blur did progress, Albarn and Coxon in particular. maybe finally its time for Noel to move on

I saw them live during the summer and they were rubbish, in my opinion, although I can't really blame them since they didn't give a crap anymore, and didn't care if it showed. They did have sound cuts, which must have been frustrating, but even taking that into account they were purely riding on the glory of their early albums. I'm happy for them that they called it a day, fair play.

Delighted. Fukkin hate them.

Awesome... I'm glad they'll be putting us out of our misery

Aw

- I was waiting for either Gobshíte to shoot the other twice in the face and then overdose on something.

So how many times does this make it that one or the other walked out and was "never" coming back?



He will be back again at some stage. And with his return will come the usual talk of how the time apart recharged the batteries and how they now have learned to co-exit.

The press will lap it up and laud it as a defining moment for music as a "legendary" band reforms and will hype up whatever rubbish they are releasing at that time.

Bound to happen IMO, the Gallaghers always had a volatile relationship.


Anyways

Have they a Greatest Hits album coming out or what??
Only 1 step up the ladder from the Louis Walsh brigade at generating column inches with crap news.
Last month it was that they spent 1m on drugs.. Who gives a f*ck.

Would be delighted if I thought this was end of them but they will be back..

At last!

You've mixed him up with Lian. I thought Noel was grand, but Liam.... Hated him.

Nah, any interview I've ever read of him, he's full of himself and saying how he's the greatest lyricist of all time. Plus there's the thing of how he walked off tour to go shopping for houses. I'd like Oasis much more if Liam wan't around.

Though apparently Noel is going to do some solo work which I look forward to.

Who gives a sh*t bar anyone with their heads still stuck in the 1990's?!

And what the hell is this doing under the 'Rock/Metal' umbrella?! Since when were they 'Rock/Metal'?! Pop, Britpop, useless more like...

Oasis classify themselves as a rock band don't they? And what's wrong with being stuck in the 90's? I'm pretty much stuck in the 80's!

Well they've been satirically called a Beatles tribute band and they were rock.
