"For me oasis, sorry any oasis fans ^ Forth form, stream of consciousness doggerel." Oasis had one album of any note - and apparently this is because (according to Noel) He'd written most of the songs before Oasis had really started. So he put the best ones on the first album, the next best on the second album and so on. | |||

Never felt like seeing them live though, I could be wrong, but they strike me as very much a "sit at home and listen" type band (especially everything post OK Computer), which I enjoy doing. | |||

I very much doubt that any band from the 2000’s has reached that milestone. So are not worthy of being considered as overrated. | |||

"So here is my input............. the sex pistols. Privately educated middle class twats, pretending to to be anti establishment and for the people. " Whilst I agree that the Pistols are given a lot more credit musically than they are possibly due, and in fact were as manufactured and manipulated as most boy bands, they were at the forefront (possibly by design) of breaking down a lot of barriers that did away with the way music was heading back then. As for them being "Privately educated middle class" - that's totally incorrect, with the possible exception of Glen Matlock, they were all from working class council estate backgrounds and educated in state schools, which they spent most of their time bunking off from - in fact John Lydon missed a large part of his education due to meningitis. You may be getting confused with The Clash who were from more privileged backgrounds | |||
