Copious cocaine use is by no means a necessarily damnable musical influence (see: Tusk, Station to Station).

i think it depends on what kind of music to which its being applied, and the quality of imaginations at play. oasis wrote some good songs but had little-to-no imagination beyond their established aesthetic, and so the album where they go macro only magnifies their limitations until they're all distorted and stretched thin

GnR was probably also on a lot of cocaine when they did Appetite tbh, wasn't heroin the problem later in the band?

Oasis's "Get in the Ring" was 'Wibbling Rivalry'

I am going to listen to Use Your Illusion I and II today for the first time.

OK I'm only four songs into UYI I and it already wins. This is fantastic!

They're weirdly underrated. The sheer scope and ambition deserve some props.
