Description & Specifications

‘Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain are fantastic chaps. The Dudley Moore and Peter Cook of music journalism LG x’ – Liam Gallagher

‘Something special: a book of wit and verve about why Oasis matter’ – The Telegraph

This instant Sunday Times bestseller is the definitive book about the music of Oasis, published as the reunion tour was making headlines around the world. A deeply researched tribute to the creative talent and star power of the Gallaghers, A Sound So Very Loud is crammed with unknown detail and the kind of anarchic, brilliantly funny anecdotes that only Oasis could generate.

Music journalists Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain first met Liam and Noel in 1994, when the brothers were playing tiny venues, and have since interviewed them dozens of times, tracking the astonishing success of Oasis as they became one of the biggest bands in the world.

In this comprehensive telling of the Oasis story through their spectacular back catalogue, Kessler and MacBain focus on the enduring power of the music, exploring the tales behind the lyrics and revealing the background to the writing, recording and impact of all the songs, from megahits like ‘Live Forever’, ‘Wonderwall’ and ‘Champagne Supernova’ to the fan-favourite B-sides and deep cuts such as ‘Acquiesce’, ‘The Masterplan’ and ‘Half the World Away’.

With their unique perspective on all things Oasis, Kessler and MacBain bring this story to life in glorious colour. A Sound So Very Loud is the book every Oasis fan needs on their shelves, destined to be as timeless and as moreish as the music itself.

‘Essential reading. Hamish and Ted have had front row tickets to the Oasis story from the very beginning. There’s no one who knows more about the band, the music and its impact’ – Mat Whitecross, director of Oasis: Supersonic
