I've always thought they were a bit like the Beatles in that so many of their non-single album tracks were recognizable 'hits'. Noel Gallagher, though competent isnt the greatest of guitarists, by the way.

btw. not entirely related but- Depeche Mode seem to be a British band that aren't really all that big in the UK but are pretty massive around the world, including the US.

Actually, I happened to meet Liam Gallagher at a pharmacy a few years back on the date of an Oasis gig (I think 08 or 09), super nice guy, very down to earth, we chat for a few minutes about his kids and music, even stopped and took a photo with me.

Yes, you can't take what Noel says too seriously, some of the things he says are just downright hillarious (regardless if you like or don't like the people he is speaking about)

“I’m aware that Radiohead have never had a ****ing bad review. I reckon if Thom Yorke ****ing **** into a light bulb and started blowing it like an empty beer bottle it’d probably get 9 out of 10 in ****ing Mojo. I’m aware of that.”

(how do you even come up with something like that?!)
