Oasis are flapping their gums again. They must have a new album coming out.
Oasis are pathetic. The punch-up spectacle of the monobrow twins loses a lot of its blue-collar appeal when the subjects are multimillionaire brats on a major record label that doesn't seem to care that they haven't truly mattered since 1996.
Speaking of people that haven't truly mattered since 1996, they're slagging Damon Albarn. They're slagging his Gorillaz project, claiming that Damon hopped on some sort of cartoon hip-hop bandwagon. They're also upset that Blur perceive that Oasis instigated the Battle of Britpop in 1995. WELL HOLD THE PRESSES!! My G-d, if Oasis didn't start it, then WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE FUTURE OF MANKIND? The only people who would care about re-living seven-year old gossip are sticklers like myself and people who haven't noticed that Oasis haven't made a decent album since John Major was PM of Britain.
And they lay into Radiohead, as well. That's like shooting fish in a barrel, so pardon me if I don't immediately whip out my cassette copy of "Definitely Maybe" and hail Liam and Noel as my personal Buddhas because of their keen critiquing ability. Obviously, they needed to target a band whose rise to prominence came subsequent to their own, just to feed their delusions about how people won't care as much about Radiohead, Travis, Blue, Fat Les, et al, because Oasis like to 'ave it more so than those other bands, or whatever.
And this from the band that claim Blur engineered the Battle of Britpop. Liam and Noel's latest spew serves the exact same purpose as the ones in 1995 -- to dupe people into thinking that Oasis are more big-league than they are.
