The list of groups who singlehandedly alter the course of rock history is a short
one, but Oasis have undeniably earned their place on it. As the 90s hurled
themselves into a dance frenzy, the Manchester band reminded audiences
worldwide of the massive power of guitar-led rock'n'roll. The band have had
innumerable hits since 1994, but it was 1995's anthemic 'Wonderwall' which
became Oasis's global calling card.
