Feeder

British pop-metal outfit Feeder were formed in London by singer/guitarist Grant Nicholas and drummer Jon Lee, who first teamed up in the Welsh band Temper Temper. Originally dubbed Reel, the new group's lineup was complete with the addition of Tokyo-born bassist Taka Hirose. After signing to Echo in 1995, Feeder issued their debut EP, Two Colours, followed by the six-track Swim; a series of well-received singles -- "Stereo World," "Tangerine," and "Cement" -- expanded Feeder's fan base further, and in the middle of 1997, they launched their full-length debut, Polythene. The hit "Day In, Day Out" preceded the release of the trio's sophomore effort, 1999's Yesterday Went Too Soon. Despite not catching on in America, Feeder maintained their popularity in Europe. In 2001, after touring the world relentlessly, Feeder achieved their breakthrough hit in the U.K. with "Buck Rogers"; the first single from the band's third album, Echo Park, it eventually hit number five on the charts. Before year's end, they scored another Top 20 hit with the Just a Day EP and hit the road with Stereophonics. Tracks for a fourth album were already in the works when tragedy struck as founding member Jon Lee died by suicide in his Miami home in early January 2002. He was 33. Nicholas and Hirose saw fit to continue with Feeder, and they resumed recording with former Skunk Anansie drummer Mark Richardson behind the kit. The Gil Norton-produced Comfort in Sound was released the following October. In August 2004, Feeder issued a fan-friendly B-sides collection called Picture of Perfect Youth, and Norton was again behind the boards for the Pushing the Senses LP, which followed in 2005. A year later, with tours of Japan and Europe under their belts, Feeder released The Singles in the middle of 2006. The career-spanning release collected 20 tracks from the band's five previous albums and a brand-new track titled "Lost & Found." Select shows in Milan, Berlin, and London opening for the Rolling Stones followed that summer. Two years later, in June 2008, Feeder's sixth studio album, the self-produced Silent Cry, was released. Renegades arrived in 2010, followed in 2012 by the group's eighth studio album, Generation Freakshow. After a short break -- and a solo record from Nicholas -- Feeder returned in 2016 with their ninth studio album, All Bright Electric. 2017 saw the release of their second compilation, The Best of Feeder. Once again, they included a few unreleased tracks with the comp, which eventually grew into a nine-track album called Arrow. Off the back of their recent releases, the band had gained a bigger following; wanting to please their new fans, they released their tenth studio album, Tallulah, in 2019. The group returned in 2022 with the heavier single "Torpedo" before issuing an album of the same name in March of that year. Two years later they released the ambitious double album Black/Red, announcing it as the completion of a trilogy that Torpedo had begun.
