I find it hilarious that so many people hold Oasis to such a high standard when it comes to originality. If these people are so bothered by a band they think is derivative, then shouldn't they also hate 99% of all the punk bands in existence? Or the vast majority of bands in any other sub-genre? At least Oasis have a sound of their own that you can't really mistake for anyone else. I could give a **** how original they are. All I know is that they are a fantastic power pop band who I'd be thrilled to listen to inbetween Big Star and Cheap Trick.
