Oasis shot into fame in 1994, become one of Britain's most popular bands of the decade, along with Blur and Suede, Led by guitarist/songwriter Noel Gallagher, Gallagher's songs frequently rework previous hits from T. Rex ("Cigarettes and Alcohol" borrows the riff from "Bang a Gong") to Wham! ("Fade Away" takes the melody from "Freedom"), yet the group always puts the hooks in different settings, updating past hits for a new era.

Oasis appeared in 1994 with their first single 'Supersonic'. Noel Gallagher described this song as their answer to i am the walrus!!!! Their first album 'Definetly Maybe' was also released in 1994 and is probably the album that made them what they are today!
