If we're judging strictly by music then it's The Smashing Pumpkins by a country mile, however I suspect that Texas Boy's original point is more nuanced than that, because the bands a vastly different and comparing them on their music would be retarded.

I think the cleverly hidden point of the topic is who is more egotistical, Billy Corgan or the knob-head singer from Oasis. Now that's actually pretty hard because both frontmen were pretty much willing to torpedo their own band rather than give the other members any sort of creative control. At least Oasis had the proper sense to fuck off when it became readily apparent that nobody gave a shit about them anymore, which is far more than Billy Corgan and his studio musicians can say.

So strictly by those metrics, I guess Oasis is better.
