2016 release, the fifth album by the British Pop band. In making this self-titled album, The Feeling boldly went where not many bands in the last 30 years have gone before: they decided to record the entire thing in just a few days, as a fully live band. Following on from 'Wicked Heart', the first introduction to the album, first single 'Spiraling' perfectly showcases both Dan Gillespie Sells' strong vocal and the live recording of the band's album in both it's sound and the video. Premiered on Radio 2, it is an honest and emotive track that begins delicately before launching into a guitar-led expansive chorus. Gillespie Sells says; "It meant writing a simple song which didn't need a lot of additional production to make it work. Just 5 players in a studio and that's it. We enjoyed the challenge of working this way". The plan with the band's fifth album was to capture the spirit and musicianship that has made them such a successful live draw for the past decade. In that spirit, the band abandoned the standard studio time-keeper of a click track and recorded the songs one at a time, in full takes. The Feeling is a raw and passionate album and it's also why it's title is self-titled, because this, more than any of their previous records, is what they really sound like.
