Torpedo
Torpedo is the eleventh studio album by Feeder, the Welsh rock band whose run of records stretches back to Polythene in 1997. It came out on 18 March 2022 on Big Teeth Music, and its sound sits in the alternative rock camp that has defined the group from the start.
In the band's story, it follows Tallulah from 2019 and comes just ahead of Black/Red in 2024, so it belongs to a late, steady stretch of releases rather than a one-off return. For anyone who knew the band through Echo Park or Comfort in Sound, it is a chance to hear how they carried on into the 2020s, still making guitar-led rock albums on their own label.
