83. This British band had hits with "Wonderwall" and "Don't Look Back In Anger." When it came to the two brothers in the band though, there was lots of anger. Who is this band?

From Quiz Why You Gotta Be So Mean?

Answer: Oasis

Oasis were formed in Manchester, England in 1991. Within a few short years they had two very successful albums, "Definitely Maybe" in 1994 and "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" in 1995. The song "Wonderwall", from their second studio album, reached top ten in many countries and was the first song from the 1990s to reach one billion streams on Spotify. "Don't Look Back In Anger" reached number one in England and was the first Oasis song that was sung by Noel Gallagher, not regular vocalist Liam Gallagher. The thing about Oasis is that band members and brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher notoriously do not get along. There have been public spats, no shows at scheduled events and other fights for years. In 2009 a concert was cancelled because Liam had laryngitis however Noel stated that Liam had a hangover. Liam sued his brother and demanded an apology, which he got. What he also got was the breakup of the band. Noel made a statement on the band's website announcing his departure. I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did.
