Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Feeder's second full length album--the self produced and occasionally self indulgent Yesterday Went Too Soon--is an altogether much more sobering affair than 2001's Echo Park--the curious pop mixture of cider and lemons that saw the band finally gatecrash the charts. Progressing from the heavy riffs and suffocating places of debut Polythene, Grant Nicholas' true songwriting begins to shine through with a quirkiness not previously encountered. "Anaesthetic" and "Picture of Perfect Youth" are modern rock songs and he's never afraid to don his post-Nirvana top hat (the irascible "Waiting For Changes"). But the album's heart, when revealed, sounds broken and isolated. The fragile "Tinsel Town" and the mature "So Well" demonstrate this mindset admirably. Unfortunately, Nicholas' own judgement occasionally gets the better of him and the album sags in the middle with the quite unremarkable "Day In Day Out" and the ill-advised socio-political musings of "Radioman". However his is a talent to be treasured, never in the gutter looking up at the stars, but flying high above the clouds waiting to crash down. --Ben Johncock

Before i bought this album i had already bought 'Polythene' which reallly suprised me .....It was sooo good! I started liking Feeder as soon as i heard 'Buck Rogers'Since then i have bought every single and album the've done and the one that stands out the most is 'Yesterday went too soon'. I has everything i ever had wanted from and an album and everything i will want. It is truly amazing!
My personal fave is the unbelieveably catchy 'Insomnia' (If you like 'Buck Rogers' you'll love this). As for the rest of the songs they are all top quality. It contains Feeders origional stlye and a contrast between slow and fast songs for example;'Dry' then 'Hole in my head' then 'So Well'. All this makes for a classic album..........A MUST HAVE!!!!!!!!

This was the first Feeder album i ever bought, at the time i just bought it for Insomnia (which is the best song ever!). But i was pleasently suppriesed by how good the rest of the album is. In my opinion it is the best of all the Feeder albums. On 'Yesterday Went Too Soon' every song is quality (even the hidden track is quite good). Although if you are expecting 13 songs all like 'Insomnia' you'll be disapointed, but given half a chance songs like 'Picture of Perfect Youth' and 'Yesterday Went To Soon' will grow on you and end up becoming some of your favourite song. Overall a very good album and if you were like me thinking 'i like Buck Rodgers and Insomnia but i don't know if it's worth buying a Feeder album' you should definatley buy this, you wont' regret it!

I love all of Feeder's albums but this just might be my favourite. The tracks on Yesterday Went Too Soon are pretty diverse, but all of them are perfect and fit brilliantly into the album as a whole. It's an amazing achievement by the band, who self produced this album - and Grant Nicholas' songwriting skills just get better and better, he's come up with some fantastic songs here. Personal favourites are the heartbreaking, beautiful 'Dry' and the frenetic 'Hole In My Head', together with the perfect rock song 'Insomnia' and the exuberant 'You're My Evergreen'. However, there's not one weak track on the album. If you've recently got into the brilliance that is Feeder and are wondering whether to buy this album, then do it, now - you won't regret it.

Feeder - Yesterday went too soon
Feeder make great music and this is one of their earlier CDs. Bought from Zoverstocks. Always a reliable marketplace supplier, good value and speedy delivery.

Not what I expected.
After Polythene and hearing some new material at live shows this albumdid surprise me a little. It was less smashing pumpkins and more stereophonics. Read more

Really Really Good
Feeeder's best work to date - better than Polythene(Just), Echo Park(margianlly), Comfort In Sound and Pushing The Senses. A Must buy for fans of this genre. Read more

Pure brilliance
OK, this album has obviously split Feeder fans in half, but I think this is the one of the best albums ever, let alone best Feeder album.

...and then it all went pear-shaped.
Feeder began as a heavy rock band, touring with Skunk Anansie, Everclear and Terrorvision. Boasting riff-laden classics such as "Descend" and "Stereo World", they were proclaimed... Read more

The very first Feeder track that I came across was the excellent Buck Rogers and that song alone made me go out and buy each and every Feeder album. Read more

Feeder: Yesterday Went Too Soon
Another good offering from the Welsh band. Generally a good quality and worthy album to listen to, although perhaps a bit tepid compared with their earlier offerings. Read more
