About this listen

This is the first and definitive book about the music of Oasis, written by two insiders and published in time for the reunion tour. A Sound So Very Loud is not only a deeply researched tribute to the generational creative talent and star power of the Gallagher brothers, it’s also crammed with unknown detail and the kind of anarchic, brilliantly funny stories that only Oasis could generate.

Music journalists Ted Kessler and Hamish MacBain first met Liam and Noel in 1994, when they were playing tiny venues, and have interviewed them dozens of times since, 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 their songs, from mega hits like ‘Live Forever’, ‘Wonderwall’, ’Don’t Look Back In Anger’ 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, and numerous encounters over the years, they also bring the story of the band to life in glorious colour.

A Sound So Very Loud is a book every Oasis fan will need on their shelves, destined to be as timeless and as moreish as their music.
