Following their hugely successful singles collection of 2006, new album, ‘Silent Cry’, is perhaps Feeder’s most daring and complete album yet. Startlingly intimate yet musically heavier than their more recent records, it reflects how far the band has come without compromising their roots, and works as a cohesive whole to convey exactly who the band are today. “This is a really important album for us,†Grant says. “Any album now is important because it could be your last one, you just don’t know. I thought after ‘The Singles’, people would think we were calling it a day and I wasn’t sure about putting it out because of that, but I think what it did was make me realise what we’d done. It was always a dream to me to be in a band who made lots of albums, and it made me realise we were actually starting to achieve that and we can still make better music. I think that made us feel stronger as a band. We may not be the big new thing now, but I didn’t want to compromise or come back with a stale record and it doesn’t feel that way to me.â€
All told, it’s undoubtedly an album that should make even more people sit up and take notice of a band who believe the best is yet to come for them. A brave step forward - yet still retaining the independent spirit and heavy guitars of their early days – ‘Silent Cry’ is the sound of a band who are constantly evolving and reflecting passing time while never forgetting exactly what first inspired them to come together all those years ago. “We’ve always felt that we had more to achieve and, though I feel like every album is a new chapter in some way, I’m hoping this one can push us even further. I feel this album is a step towards that, and yet a step towards our roots in some ways too,†Grant says. “I definitely believe we can achieve more and we really do believe in this record. You can never guess how it will be received when other people hear it, but all I know is that we’ve made a record we’re very proud of.â€
