Editor's note

Oasis, the Manchester band that defined Britpop

The Gallagher brothers led a 1990s rock phenomenon with anthems like 'Wonderwall' and a famously brash attitude.

For the full Oasis experience, start with 'Don't Look Back in Anger' and 'Supersonic.' They frame the band's mix of swagger and melody pretty well.

Oasis gave the Britpop era its soundtrack with songs that felt both immediate and anthemic. 'Live Forever' from their 1994 debut 'Definitely Maybe' captured that spirit, and a year later, '(What's the Story) Morning Glory?' made them a phenomenon with 'Wonderwall' becoming inescapable. Their public spats and brash attitude were part of the package, often discussed as much as the music itself.

They came out of Manchester in the early 1990s, with Noel Gallagher writing most songs and Liam handling vocals with a sneer. Later albums like 'Be Here Now' and 'Standing on the Shoulder of Giants' kept them commercially successful through the late '90s and 2000s, before calling it quits in 2009 after 'Dig Out Your Soul.'

Archive material and source history

Oasis came out of Manchester in the early 1990s, built around the Gallagher brothers. Noel wrote most of the songs and played lead guitar, while Liam handled the vocals with a particular sneer. Their debut album 'Definitely Maybe' arrived in 1994 with songs like 'Live Forever' and 'Supersonic' that felt both immediate and anthemic.

A year later, '(What's the Story) Morning Glory?' made them a phenomenon. It had 'Wonderwall,' a ballad that became inescapable, and other tracks like 'Don't Look Back in Anger' that defined the Britpop era. The brothers' public spats and the band's brash attitude were part of the package, often discussed as much as the music itself.

Later albums like 'Be Here Now' and 'Standing on the Shoulder of Giants' kept them commercially successful through the late '90s and 2000s, even if the reception was more mixed. The lineup included guitarist Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs, bassist Paul 'Guigsy' McGuigan, and drummer Alan White for much of that run. They called it quits in 2009 after one more album, 'Dig Out Your Soul.'
