Might have had something to do with the lead singer of New Miserable Experience committing suicide after being fired for alcohol abuse.

Three massive-selling albums (over 40 million units sold) in three years and, in the UK at least, the most popular post-Beatles group.

They were the top, and with a temporary dominance that a group manages only once or twice each decade.

Yeah, my impression is that Oasis were as big in the UK as Nirvana was in the US. Which is to say, HUGE.

Speaking of Nirvana, we could wonder if Nirvana hadn't made big, will bands like Cinderella, Warrant, Queenschryche, Extreme keep going a bit longer instead of going south when Nirvana made it?

My hometown band, Simple Plan. They remained popular in Canada but not the states. They had two huge albums then fell off in the states.
