By 1994, grunge had waned and Madchester had set the table for the next massive wave of British musicāthe UK was ready for its next big rock band to refocus the global lens back on olā Blighty. Thatās when Oasis popped onto the scene fully formed and captured the mantle with their iconic haircuts, perfect clothes, explosive feuds, and of course, their absolute bangers. Join along as Yasi Salek and her Wonderwall, The Ringerās Rob Harvilla, ask each other: where were you while Oasis was getting high? In this part one of two, we cover everything between the bandās formation and what led up to the legendary Britpop chart battle.
