There's a great quote about Oasis from Robert Smith I can't find right now, where he says that while lager, football and having a big mouth are three things he enjoys very much, there's more to life than this.

If there is, I don't think he's found it.

He looks like the Joker's racist uncle.

He hasn't aged well physically and should've called it quits ages ago, yes.

But in that quotation, which I sadly can't find, he was referring to the limitations of UK's "lad culture" and to Oasis being its figureheads. That I find hard to argue with although to each one's own obv.

My impression of UK lad culture is that it's much like American good ol' boy culture but without the history of the KKK to make it seem more explicitly sinister.

The whole "lad culture" thing is pretty specific to the Thatcher/New Labour era, I'd look at that context first before drawing comparisons to the US.
