Music Banter - View Single Post - Would Oasis sound more dated now or The Smiths 10 years ago?

I actually feel like Oasis were much more a product of the times and not in a good way like The Smiths who carved their space with pure originality. The Smiths defined and pioneered their sound. I say The Smiths hold up better, are far more timeless, and while maybe not on "the charts" Smithlike bands still end up on end of the year top 100 lists from sources like Pitchfork and Wire.
