Making the ‘Black’/’Red’ album for me personally was a musical pilgrimage and I feel the end result is undeniable Feeder.”To celebrate the announcement, the band have today (October 23) shared two new tracks from the forthcoming release, ‘Playing With Fire’ and ‘ELF’.The former sees Nicholas and co.
