Feeder : Seven Days In The Sun
In three years they'll be melting down remaindered Feeder singles to make copies of the fifth a1 album.
Hold the front page! But prepare to be amazed, for the new Feeder single involves not only characterisation ("he likes to cross dress every Friday night in clothes from Prada") that makes Louise Wener sound like Charles Dickens, but tunesmithery that explores previously uncharted realms of triteness. Presumably at some point in the campaign for 'Seven Days In The Sun', a member of Feeder will say something along the lines of: "We are proper music and not manufactured and Atomic Kitten are shit", which is fair enough, but of course in three years they'll be melting down remaindered Feeder singles to make copies of the fifth a1 album.
