Is that what it's called?
Heard it on Radio One last night. Didn't exactly jump out and grab me. Maybe it will grow on me witha few more plays.
Feeder need to be more rocky.

Yeah, I feel the same about it.
Video's ok though.
I've read that the new album is meant to be much deeper than the rest. Hopefully we're not about to hear some whiney emo arsed lyrics.

T&F is boredom distilled into the form of a song. The album has a few good, upbeat tracks but the rest are cut from the same cloth as T&F sadly.

Is the album out yet, or do you have a special promo version?

I'll probably end up buying it out of loyalty

Someone who bought a promo sent me it. I'll still buy it, of course. I'm in for the long haul

That's what being a fan is about I suppose. You need to buy the stuff to keep the band signed, in the vein hope they will produce something better next time!

they will produce something better next time! I keep saying that. But it never happens. The last decent album was YWTS. Everything else pretty much sucks donkey balls. But, being a fan, I spend my hard earned cash on them.

nothing to the standard of the early stuff though. And they always had 3 excellent other tracks too. on the first albums I never skipped tracks ever ervery song was good cant say the same for the new stuff

Exactly.
I've never skipped a track on Swim or Polythene. I'd probably skip 1 maybe 2 tracks on YWTS, but there would more usage of the >> button when playing the next two albums.

Indeed.
I can't even bring myself to listen to Echo Park most of the time. It's so depressing and overproduced. Comfort in Sound has some nice moments but it's also melancholy and a bit too pensive for my liking.
Stick some of Feeder's old stuff in your stereo or iPod or whatever though and you feel upbeat and good about things. Undivided for example is everything that is superb about Feeder's old stuff. And YWTS is perhaps their best song to date in my opinion. Will anything come close to these again? Can't see it happening.
I'll buy the album but don't hold much hope that it'll be super-great-fantastic.

I'm surprised - if YWTS is your favourite, why don't you like the mellower balladry of the recenty releases?
