QuoteThe first trailer for Supersonic has been unveiled, a film which documents the career of "one of rock's true giants", Oasis.
The film, which comes out in cinemas on 2 October, was produced by director Asif Kapadia and James Gay-Rees who made Amy and was directed by Spike Island's Mat Whitecross.
Thanks to Liam and Noel's frequent and much valued interviews, there's little we don't already know about the brothers' 20 years together. During the clip, the footage follows their ascent from "lads on a council estate" to the heights of fame via tabloid exposure, 90s hedonism and peaking with their two-day stint at Knebworth Park in 1996.
Although Liam and Noel's voiceovers were recorded separately, the film has given hope to fans who feel it is the brother's first attempt at uniting since their acrimonious split in 2009.
Whitecross, the film's director, did not rule out a possible reunion during an exclusive screening of the film at Festival No 6 on Sunday. Revealing that Coldplay's Chris Martin had been playing the role of Oasis peacemaker, he added: "Neither of them have discounted the idea of getting back together. It will happen, I'm sure. The idea of never seeing them again for me is impossible."
It is not yet known whether both brothers will attend the Supersonic premiere, but it's likely it will take more than encouragement from Martin and a red carpet to unite the two together. As Liam recently tweeted: "Just seen the trailer for oasis film i must say I do come across mighty fine super real unlike some people see you at the premiere LG x".
Looks good this. October 2nd its out. IN? Discuss Oasis at lenght. Best songs. Tard-abilities.
SUNSHINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNE
Looks good.
I enjoy a good music documentary
Will definitely watch this documentary. Noel Gallagher is a funny hooer. The first 2 albums were brilliant, serious dip there after.
Saw then more by accident than design In the Limelight in Belfast on a Sunday night back in 1994,- ( it was the only " safe" place back them for a late Sunday night drink back them ), was blown away by them, Acquiesce my favourite song
Definitely maybe watch this. :-[

It actually wasn't even that packed that night
Absolutely loved their layered guitar sound, Liam had a great voice, and they had a few excellent songs, but I found most of their stuff too either too derivative or dull, melodically. Unfulfilled potential for me.

There were approximately 300000 people in the King's Hall for Nirvana in 1992.

There was an old woman down the road who used to see them everywhere, in her cupboards, in the garden, in the wardrobe etc..

Two utterly w**k bands competing to pay the blandest music that night?
Haha! Ye ballix.
Snow Patrol were shite right enough.
The Strokes were great though.
If seen every band I've ever wanted to see live apart from perhaps Led Zeppelin. None came close to Queen as a live act.

I thought the first 2 Snow Patrol albums were very good. The Strokes first album is a modern classic imo
It doesn't get any better than this:

Decent article on Be Here Now.
I actually liked that album....
I watched the documentary yesterday.
Thought it was outstanding with a lot of unseen/unheard footage from the early days.
There will never be a band like them again.

They are crap. Only a few countries take oasis seriously so they're a niche band and not very good.
How many countries need to take a band seriously for them to be any good? How is this seriousness measured?

70 million album sales worldwide would suggest otherwise. Huge popularity in countries like Japan and Australia. Certainly at their peak. No issue with you calling them crap, as music is all about personal taste, but they appealed to the masses. Very much the opposite of niche.
They couldn't believe the following they had in Asia. Well, it looked that way in the documentary.
