Oasis

where are the Oasis-fans

??

It's waiting until May for the new album

Karl Hungus

I'm afraid most of the Oasis fans moved onto whatever the next brit-rock fad was sometime in the late 90's.

The topic '5 best albums', there are two people with oasis on the first place :cool:

dregin

Enough for what exactly?

Goodshape

Enough to make them in any way popular. You're right - it's not. They aren't.

Oasis are as popular as ever. I guarantee you that the first single off the new album will top both the UK and Irish charts, as will the album.

Wow! The charts you say!? If they get in the charts they can be as cool as Daniel Beddingfield and whatever flaccid twonk is the flavour of the week. :rolleyes:

Yay I thought I was the only person in Ireland who still loved Oasis.

Oasis are still frickin' huge - FACT Their gig at Marlay Park is sold out. They are playing huge shows all across the UK and their show at Madison Square Garden is sold out.

I still love Oasis. They are the reason I got intop music in the first place. It cannot be denied that they have had a huge influence on so many people. I know that N.G. is not a lyrical genius but Oasis are an anthems band and nobody does anthems like Oasis and they are still a cut above the rest today. They will never top Definitely Maybe. Moring Glory was fcuking huge aswell but sadly 'Be Here Now' screwed them. 'Be Here Now' was nowhere near the disaster that so many people made it out to be but it was an album that had potential to be alot better but sorely needed more work in the studio.

Judging by 'Heathen Chemistry', Oasis are still fab and I can't frickin' wait for the newbie in May. They are still my heroes to this day and I'm still definitely .... MAD FER IT!

Oh I've got to say in honour of LG ...... SUNSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE!

I find Heathen Chemistry and (What's the story) Morning Glory ? the two best albums

ok heres my 2 cents on this half great band.
well let me explain.
50% of the band meaning noel.. mabye the best song writer of current times. worldwide .
i cant stand the sight of liam. BUT.. when there on stage they do have a certin thing that makes them so powerfull . i saw them in liverpool manchester and the point.

very very disapointed in the point gig. but mabye after seeing them at maine road. thats just too much to live up tooo?
the def mabye album was a monster hit . i still give it a spin and whats the story is so anthem like... the other albums medioka too say the least a little bit rushed i think?

but the new album i was delighted when i heard the album was getting pulled back. actualy 2 times it got delayed .
im just hoping it was delayed because they want to take theier time and get it right .. and not milking it.. as to the point of letting people get this album hyped up . and then just let it go flat as a pancake when its released.

i taught the george michael patience... was a simalar thing for me.. what a load of boll_0x and it was years of work . for mabye 2 good songs.. well thats just me...
ps... any oasis fans
try have a listen to the 2 cd album rare version of whats the story import...
very good.....cough i got a spare one ....ehh mmmmm

I like the Masterplan album. The rest are so so, or ****.

I am MAN

I dont listen to music as soft as Oasis anymore but something inside me tells me that I cant diss them, they where so good back in the day.

toffo

Like the first 2 albums. Not impresses with them live, seen them twice and both times the support act was better.

koneko

I can't think of a band I dislike more.

I saw them live and it was woeful. Not only were they bad, the crowd was the most immature I've ever seen at any concert. I swear I must have been hit by about 5 bottles from drunk scumbags. Worst concert I've ever been to.

Toffy - were you at the one in Landsdowne Road? I agree, Supergrass were about a 1000 times better than Oasis.

Bryan Adams ....... ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Are you trying to say Bryan Adams is in the same league as Oasis?

I was just stating that Oasis are still frickin' huge in Ireland and they are as popular as ever and will always be popular.

No, no, not at all, you've completely misunderstood. I meant exactly the opposite. What I was trying to say is that Oasis is in the same league as Bryan Adams.

Oasis' first two albums are class but they went seemed to run out of steam after that. I think Noel Gallagher basically just ran out of ideas. I'd love to see a return to form from them with the new album.

This thread demonstrates why non-metal fans don't like posting about non-metal bands in the rock/metal forum.

You can't really judge any band on their performance at the Point because the sound is consistently awful. It's just a poor venue in general.

I've had the same experience at a couple of concerts, including Oasis in 2003 and Velvet Revolver last month. Two completely different bands, but more or less the same scumbags! It's hardly the bands' fault.

Point taken, but I was simply emphasising the fact that Oasis are as popular as ever. The matter of them being any good or not is, I'm sure you'll agree, not directly related to their chart success.

Exactly!

I'd disagree there. I remember the sound being perfect in the Point when I went to see David Bowie, not to mention Iron Maiden. I think you'll find that the sound you get on the night of a gig rests mostly on how good the sound engineer is, and how well he gets the mix to suit the venue itself. If the sound is bad at a gig I'd lay the blame on the sound engineer not doing a proper sound check.

Of course I agree. Popularity never has anything to do with how good a band is.

And your post demonstrates why a seperate board would be an extremely bad idea. This is a discussion board, hence people discuss things, and opposing opinions are nessicary to this end, otherwise every thread would read the same posters exclaiming "Yep" "Uh-huh" ad naseum. Lets take the whole Metallica debate for instance, where there's many different opinions and often people will get into very long, heated debates over the whole thing. So, by your standards there should be two seperate boards for Metallica, one for, one against!

That's a good point, but I think an "Indie" forum would still remain general enough to avoid this - remember the Oasis/Blur debates?

Eh Oasis are rock.

I definitely think there should be an indie forum as the Metalheads are truly ruling this forum.

What's wrong with debate? And why exactly would you want to avoid it? It's the very thing that makes discussion boards interesting.

Here hold on a second:

First of all, how does my post demonstrate that?

Secondly, NO I never said anything about having separate boards. I was just pointing out that this thread is a good example of what a lot of people were talking about recently.

Er... What the hell!? I explained it all in the following part of my post, which you seperated into two quotes! That's akin to if I took what you've just said above, and did this:

Regaurdless, it's still an example of why seperate boards are a bad idea.
