'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 in time for the reunion tour. 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 a 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

About the Author
Hamish MacBain worked at NME from 2004 to 2010, where he had a front row seat to the breakup of Oasis. He wrote the words in the band's last ever official tour programme and was sitting on the train on his way to review what would have been their final UK show when it was cancelled at the last minute. With Noel Gallagher, he co-authored the 2018 book Any Road Will Get Us There (If We Don't Know Where We're Going). His sleevenotes for the reissue of Be Here Now were blown up to 8" x 8" size to form part of the 'Chasing The Sun 1993-1997' Oasis exhibition. Together with Ted Kessler, they are the authors of A Sound So Very Loud.
