By request of braisedbywolves, it's the Wasiscanon. Normally I would put a picture here but you will have to imagine Liam howling like 1xgibbon instead.

You get SEVEN ticks.

I managed to tick 6 that I can bear. They were:
Supersonic
Shakermaker
Live Forever
Cigarettes & Alcohol
Whatever
Little By Little

In other words, they have released one bearable single since January 1995.

I should say that there are 5 album tracks that I like more than any of the singles that they've released - 'Cast No Shadow', 'Magic Pie', 'Don't Go Away', and 'Gas Panic'. And in fact, 'The Masterplan' alone probably would have got close to 7 ticks in its own right, if B-sides and rarities were included in canons - 'Acquiesce', 'Underneath The Sky', 'Talk Tonight', 'Stay Young' and 'The Masterplan' are all much better tracks than anything they ever released as singles.

Conclusion: Oasis - terrible singles, mostly awful albums, superb B-sides. This I think leads me to point the finger of blame at record labels, who clearly encouraged them not to include their more inventive music on the album releases.

And yes, I know I said 5 and only put 4.
