In my modest opinion, both bands are overrated. Nirvana I just do not like. I believe it the rebellious attitude which attracted and inspired generations. Musically they did not add anything new to what bands like Pearl Jam or Alice in Chains were already doing.
I believe that if Cobain would not have killed himself, they would probably not receive the acclaim they are receiving today. To call Cobain a genius is a bit too much to say the least.
And the reason why Oasis became as famous as they did was because of their attitude and the tantrums between Liam and Noel. The Oasis songs I do like were mostly sung by Noel (Masterplan, Half The World Away and Cast No Shadow). I agree with crazy horse that the first 2 albums were classics but the ones after that were rather uninspired.
