16. Chunks, Wat.....they blow chunks.
The minds in this place! :eyes:

I used the little pukey guy emoticon and everything, but still you insisted on forcefully inserting your joke anyway. You saw an opening and went for it, didn't you. }(

25. That's like asking "What's more deadly......
"Anthrax or smallpox?"

They all kill you just as dead in the end. ;-)

9. If for no other reason that for their inflated self-image, Oasis.

12. Blur are great-I've seen them live.
BTW you forgot the Stone Roses. They were part of that whole late '80s/early '90s group.

I like some Oasis songs, others are patently annoying.

14. I think Britpop is only concerned with 1993-1997, before that = Madchester
I saw Blur twice, once before Parklife in an old church, once after in an arena. Great live act.

15. I love Supergrass.
The poll is not a reflection on their ability. I've seen them live three times.

17. Frankly all of those Brit bands with four letter names
confuse me. I have no idea which one is the worst. I need a tutorial.

23. its from having to hear wonderwall a million times, and knowing the
Beatles ref's in it just pisses me off. I met Ian once at an in store they did at Tower when I was working there. They'd just released there first American cd and he was the biggest most arrogant jerkwad. Now the Black Crows that is a band that knows how to be gracious to their fans if not to eachother... I mention them because of the brothers Robinson...

22. All the Oasis Hate?!
I can see why people might not like Liam - he's a dick. But Noel is one of the best musicians out there. He's nothing like his brother. When he does solo songs it's like a dream. Oh well, I guess we're all judged by our most extreme parts.

They're judged by their crappy, derivative songs.
