In the UK OCS are only just marginally less of a joke than Phil Collins. That whole Britpop scene is now well dead and buried...hallelujah.. and hopefully we'll never hear from the missing links that are the Gallaghers esp after their last album quickly found its way into the bargain bins. That they and all the other Britpop bands failed to crack the US is a reflection of the good taste of the general American public.
