“2017: ‘the next oasis'”
.
(“oasis” were an ‘english rock band’ formed in ‘manchester’ in ‘1991’)
.
(developed from an earlier group, ‘the rain’, the band originally consisted of…)
‘liam gallagher’
(vocals / tambourine)
‘paul “bonehead” arthurs’
(guitar)
‘paul “guigsy” mcguigan’
(bass guitar)
‘tony mccarroll’
(drums / percussion)
.
(they were later joined by liam’s older brother ‘noel gallagher’ (‘lead guitar’ + ‘vocals’) as a ‘5th member’, becoming the band’s settled line-up until ‘april 1995’)
(‘oasis’ signed to independent record label ‘creation records’ in ‘1993’ and released their record-setting debut album definitely maybe (1994))
(the following year the band recorded (what’s the story) morning glory? (1995) with drummer ‘alan white’ (formerly of ‘starclub’), in the midst of a ‘chart rivalry’ with ‘britpop’ peers ‘blur’)
(along with ‘suede’, ‘pulp’, and ‘blur’, ‘oasis’ came to be regarded as a component of the britpop “big 4”, and the ‘gallagher brothers’ were featured regularly in ‘tabloid newspapers’ for their ‘sibling disputes’ + ‘wild lifestyles’)
(in 1997, ‘oasis’ released their 3rd album (be here now), and although it became the fastest-selling album in UK chart history, the album’s popularity tapered off quickly, but not before selling ‘8 million copies’)
(‘mcguigan’ + ‘arthurs’ left ‘oasis’ in ‘1999’ as the band went on to record + release standing on the shoulder of giants (2000))
(after their departures, they were replaced by former ‘heavy stereo’ guitarist / frontman ‘gem archer’ and former ‘hurricane #1’ guitarist / frontman ‘andy bell’ who joined the group for the tour in support of standing on the shoulder of giants, which had moderate success)
(their 5th studio album heathen chemistry (2002) saw noel gallagher’s releasing ‘strict creative control’ in the band’s output with all members contributing songs, which led to more relaxed recording sessions)
(in ‘2004’, the band were joined by the who’s drummer ‘zak starkey’, replacing ‘alan white’, and found renewed success + popularity with ‘don’t believe the truth (‘2005’))
(interesting corollary…as ‘alan white’ was a studio drummer who briefly replaced zak’s father ringo for the initial recording of ‘love me do’)
(what a dumb fucking album title!)
(lemme guess…”bonehead”?)
not again!
(following the recording of the band’s 7th album Dig Out Your Soul (2008), ‘Starkey’ left and was replaced by ‘Chris Sharrock’ on Oasis’ last tour as a collective band)
(during the tour the brothers’ increasingly deteriorating relationship ultimately led to ‘Noel Gallagher’ announcing in ‘August 2009’ that he would be leaving the band after a backstage altercation with ‘Liam’ before a festival appearance)
(the band, comprising the remaining members of ‘Oasis’ and led by ‘Liam Gallagher’, decided to continue working together under the name ‘Beady Eye’ until breaking up in 2014, while ‘Noel’ went on to form his solo project ‘Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds’)
.
(‘oasis’ have had ‘8 UK #1 singles’ + ‘8 UK #1 albums’, and won…)
’15 ‘NME awards’
9 ‘Q Awards’
4 ‘MTV Europe Music Awards’
6 ‘Brit Awards’
(including one in 2007 for ‘Outstanding Contribution to Music’ and one for the ‘Best Album of the Last 30 Years’ as voted by BBC Radio 2 listeners; they have been nominated for 3 ‘Grammy Awards’)
.
(by 2009, ‘oasis’ had sold over ’70 million records’ worldwide)
(the band were listed in the guinness world records book in ‘2010’ for “longest top 10 UK chart run by a group” after an unprecedented run of 22 ‘top 10’ hits in the UK)
(the band also holds the ‘guinness world record’ for being the most successful act in the UK between the years ‘1995’ and ‘2005’, spending 765 weeks in the ‘top 75’ singles + albums charts)
