I’m not really a fan of either band. Well, at one point I was a fan of Oasis when I was teenager caught up in the Britpop scene, which let’s face it was largely awful, but I started to go off them when they dropped the ball with their third album. Their first is a solid debut, and I don’t think they ever recaptured the magic of that. There are a handful great tracks spread across the other albums, but Blur were always more creative evolving their sound, whereas Oasis were just concerned with aping the shit out of The Beatles. So I'll go for Blur.
I’d have The Smiths and The Stone Roses over both of them.
EDIT: I prefer Kasabian as well. All three are great bands.
