Feeder are back with believe it or not their sixth studio album. Does anyone remember the last one? Probably not. But anyway, Silent Cry is here, and for fans of their earlier stuff it’s not as mellow or as soft as the last two albums. There is a heavier guitar presence with a much more imposing sound. Take any number of tracks on the album, but ‘We Are The People’ and ‘Fires’ for example, are builders, with crescendos and dynamic, crashing guitars of the stadium rock variety. ‘Into The Blue’ is a poor man’s Muse and ‘Silent Cry’ which is the album’s deal breaker is dark in tone before erupting into a galloping anthem. Earth moving, and ground breaking Feeder are not, but at least Silent Cry is a more vibrant return to form. Charlotte Dryden
