Stop the celebrations – Oasis are the most damaging pop-cultural force in recent British history | Simon Price

Oasis are the most damaging pop-cultural force in recent British history.

It’s easy to attack them for being musically regressive: after all, they didn’t just Stop The Clocks, to quote the title of their 2006 best-of, but rewound them by 30 years .

The real problem is that they set social attitudes back even further.

I’ll never forget being present at the Q Awards in 2000 , when Liam Gallagher heckled Robbie Williams with “ Queer !”.

The Gallaghers ’ knuckle-dragging ideas on sexuality and politics arguably shouldn’t matter.

Meanwhile, the Manic Street Preachers are as working class as they come, but refused to conform to lads-lads-Lads cliches.

Oasis’s funkless, sexless plod is always carefully pitched below the velocity at which fluid dynamics dictate that you might spill your lager.
