After the tragic death of John Lee, front man Grant Nicolas used 'Comfort In Sound' as a cathartic release for all that bottled grief. The result is an album so soaked in sadness, that it makes me squirm a little. Songs like 'Quick Fade' and the awesome title track are unbelievably candid. The album feeds off it's own atmosphere, and while it isn't as accomplished as Feeder's subsequent albums, it was the beginning of a very good turn-around for a previously laughable band.
