‘ their debut album, Definitely Maybe, was released in September 1994, entering the charts at #1, and at the time becoming the fastest selling debut album in the UK’
‘Oasis’ second album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? became a huge seller and is currently the third largest selling album of all time in the UK.’
‘The album also went on to sell 19 million copies worldwide’
‘They preformed back to back concerts at Knebworth on August 10 and 11th 1996 they sold out both show within Minutes 375,000 people over 2 nights 10 million people applied for tickets, and 375,000 were actually sold, meaning the possibility of over 10 sold out nights)

Iron Maiden been out since the 70’s
I think from 1994 to today selling 50 million Albums Worldwide is impressive wait till oasis have been out for 30 years and bet there sold more than 100 million Albums worldwide

That is a shame – they are so over rated and derivative.
the rolling stones are still around. theyre much bigger
I just remember the Blur rivalry..
Just to add insult to injury may i add the Spice Girls sold MORE albums (58 million), had MORE Number 1’s and had 3 CONSECUTIVE Xmas Number 1’s.
I dont actaully like them but thought i would point it out….
they should of called it a day after (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?
Good for them. It’s a shame their music *****.
I’m sorry, what was your question?
You have done some very detailed research. I think that Oasis are a fantastic band and Noel Gallagher writes some amazing songs.
I have seen Oasis 5 times and they always put on a good live show.
well my chemical romance is probably the biggest band in the u.s. right now, so popularity seems to have nothing to do with talent
IRON MAIDEN!!!!! have sold over 100 million albums worldwide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and rolling stones has sold more than 200 million albums!! hahaha Oasis are WAY overated
i don’t think so
Impressive as the stats are, until The Rolling Stones retire, they will be the biggest band in the uk by far. If you’re basing your argument on album sales, then Iron Maiden, Def Leppard and The Who are also miles ahead of Oasis, each having sold in the hundreds of millions. Those are just the first three that sprang to mind – I’m sure there are many more.
So while you could argue that Oasis are the biggest UK band of the last twenty years, you could not say they are the biggest ever, although they could potentially be if their album sales maintain their current levels for the next twenty years. I think it unlikely, however, that they will reach the same level as the bands mentioned above, given the diminishing sales figures of each of their successive albums.
Who care if people have sold more. Oasis dont give a fook about anything and arent ashamed to insult anyone they want… And they still sell 60 million albums? What Rock pigs!!
