Blur Vs Oasis - ProfilesArchive

About Me

The high-water mark of Britpop is generally agreed to have been the rather ludicrous media battle between Oasis and Blur in 1995, when the latter's record company adjusted its schedules so that the two bands went head to head in a race for number one.Despite its brazen artificiality, the 1995 clash between Blur's Country House and Oasis's Roll With It succeeded in mobilising some genuine passion among the young consumers manipulated into taking part.Inflected partly by the cartoon casting of Blur as arty southern fops and Oasis as salt-of-the-earth northern yobs, large numbers of teenagers rallied to the tills to show their allegiances. (In the end, it was a pyrrhic victory for Blur, who reached the top spot that week but were vastly outsold by Oasis over the following 12 months.)
