Oasis and Blur have a storied history of name-calling and fallouts throughout the 1990s, a rivalry which peaked via a chart battle when the former's single "Roll With It" came out on the same day as the latter's "Country House" – dubbed the 1995 ‘Battle of Britpop'. The Albarn-led group eventually nabbed the No. 1 spot on the U.K. Singles Chart.

Damon Albarn has accepted that his band Blur were beaten by Oasis in the battle of Britpop and is now hailing his former rivals as "the winners" as the band gear up for their reunion tour this summer
