Feeder have confirmed the details of the best of collection which will celebrate their 21 years together as a band.
“I remember sitting in a classroom at school aged 11 drawing pictures of flying V guitars and dreaming of being in a band, a band that could fill arenas and stadiums,” frontman Grant Nicholas has said.
“The dream came true and here I am 25 years later with Feeder and still riding the rock and roll train. It’s hard to believe that Swim, the first mini album, was released 21 years ago. It feels like yesterday.”
Expect some much more recent cuts along side tracks such as Just The Way I’m Feeling and Buck Rogers which established them as one of the most consistent singles bands by the start of this century, all released on September 29th digitally, as a deluxe 4LP vinyl, deluxe 3CD and standard double CD.
“We really wanted to include some new songs to this package to give the Best Of something new and fresh amongst the older tracks and to make it feel a bit more special for the fans,” Nicholas continued. “It also adds something different to the singles album that we released 11 years ago. The new recordings grew into a body of work which we have named ‘Arrow’ and includes 9 new songs.”
There’ll be more 21st birthday celebrations when Feeder play Chepstow Racecourse on August 25th.
