Fuck Oasis

[Walk]

Here's a much better picture of the Kings of Metal.



There is nothing "poser" about wearing leather if you RIDE MOTORCYCLES. It's done for safety. It's also worth noting that many bands dressed this way in the 80's *cough* GnR *cough*. If a band dressed "alternative" like Oasis do now, they would have been ridiculed then. The cover picture of Manowar Anthology is even laughed at by the band now; it was never taken seriously at all.

The scenes change and fashion changes, but good music is always good music, and Manowar will be remembered as innovators, not a retro Brit-pop band. Bands that only exist to fill a need for music are products by themselves, while truly great bands CREATE a need for new music, like Black Sabbath. By the way, Manowar is very respectful to the creators of metal, just listen to the song Manowar. They are not an arrogant band towards the greater innovators. Oasis is.

For their simplistic look and music, Oasis could use some humility.

oasis dress "alternatively"? Man, go to manchester. Thats how they dress.

You say manowar will be remembered as innovators and oasis just as a retro Brit-Pop band; you've nearly got that right. The only thing is manowar won't be remembered in 50 years time.

That couldn't be farther from the truth, but it's not your fault. You're just an ignorant boy posting bullshit on a message board. You simply don't know any better.

And it's not a surprise this conversation is only about Manowar's image, not the music. The majority of you (or should I say all of you?) slagging off Manowar are only doing so because this thread puts 'em against a favorite band of yours. And the only thing you can comment are some pics you found off the internet. What a great basis for discussion/debate.

By the way, in case someone didn't get it, the pic IQ posted is photoshopped.

Oasis are a cool band who are hitting their straps again after about 8 years mediocrity

Yeah, and Metal-Archives.com has the real picture of them, but it's down now.  I posted the motorcycle one anyway, since it's a better picture.

To split hairs here, I think only classical music is going to get remembered in hundreds of years, but even that will die out when the universe hits its heat death.  Neither popularity nor longevity determines a music's value. Good music is good music, that's it.

Yeah, I fuckin' love this thread.  I can't stand bands that find it necessary to talk shit about others just to make themselves look badass.  Fuck Oasis.  Manowar are really cool guys.  They put on an amazing live show, and they put out some cool albums.  They definitely influenced the power metal movement.  And they got some cool tunes that make me proud to be a metal fan.  They've got some real inspiring songs.  The last time me and my friends listened to Manowar we were ready to win the fucking Superbowl.  Oasis are just another over-rated band who believes their own hype.  And in a fight its no contest.  Manowar would fuck up Oasis.

[Metallifuck]

It would be worse if they slagged off a band like Slayer or Megadeth 

[*Izzy*]

I'm being totally serious but are the ones on the left and right male or female?

  Izzy?

[Lord Blackadder]

The trilogy of Into Glory Ride-Hail to England-Sign of the Hammer reigns supreme over anything Oasis has ever done.

No it doesn't.

You sir are a raging hypocrit. You said on the last page you'd never bought an oasis album and had never heard one all the way through then you have the gall to call me ignorant and say we're only insulting Manowar's image. Bah.

[liquidvirus]

man, those are some gay looking dudes, am sure they get atleast some flak for bring or trying to be metal and end up lookin like that, evn if IQ phtoshoped it .....But while i'm not really that hot on Oasis, its near usless to compare them to manowar....two different groups makin completely different music...but manowar doesnt nearly compare to oasis.

[Skeletor]

You said on the last page you'd never bought an oasis album and had never heard one all the way through then you have the gall to call me ignorant and say we're only insulting Manowar's image. Bah.

The difference is that you can't avoid hearing Oasis. Much like with Britney Spears, I've seen lots of their videos, and I've heard random songs on the radio to boot. Based on that, I can have an opinion on Oasis as well as Britney Spears. How much have you heard of Manowar's music?

And I still do think you're ignorant, especially because you said Manowar won't be remembered after many decades. They've earned their place in metal history, and most definitely will NOT be forgotten. Much like Metallica, their core work remains in the 80s, and even though they haven't made any special albums after that, they still play to big crowds. Not saying they're a stadium band like Metallica, but they play ice halls and headline festivals. That's pretty big considering "they barely have any fans and no one's interested in them".

end up lookin like that, evn if IQ phtoshoped it

OK, since there seems to be some confusion: the three guys on the front have totally different faces, it's not in any way the same people who are in the band. Only the bodies are intact.

im sure you are pleased to know that the gayest part of the photo is the real part of the photo

[Metallifuck]

It's almost as gay as Axl looks in the Welcome To The Jungle video 

[2NaFish]

well let me clarify that, a handful of people will remember manowar. Oasis will be etched in the memory society for generations.

And if you're going to compare oasis to britney then you really need to stop this as thats pathetic.

Indeed, Skeletor's views on Oasis are backed up by having not even heard any music by the group Am i right in thinking that can be termed ''speaking out of his ass?''

Now a question for Skeletor: If i were to condemn Manowar having never heard their music (which i have incidently) how would u respond?

Now, consider how that relates to what ur doing,

Feeling a little silly now?

[Skeletor]

What the hell's wrong with your reading comprehension? I just said I've been forced to hear their music by the media. I've heard at least 10 different songs.

Feeling a little silly now?

I do admit I feel silly whenever I find myself "discussing things" with you, seeing as it's a total waste of time.

Oh my bad - u see i assumed a statment like this...

The trilogy of Into Glory Ride-Hail to England-Sign of the Hammer reigns supreme over anything Oasis has ever done.

...implied ud heard a bit more than the odd single

[Skeletor]

^For christ's sake, now you're just nitpicking. The way I formed that sentence, I was simply stating the strong points of Manowar. If you honestly thought I'd heard every song Oasis has ever done, you need a reality check.

The point is, at least I know what Oasis is about and where they stand. The way you and the fish guy were talking earlier implied that you had no clue whatsoever about Manowar. I hope this thread has been at least somewhat educational

[Axls Locomotive]

exactly ... when you think of the major bands of the 90's then Oasis are certainly top 3 if not number one in the list, and number one definitely in the UK
