It’s really a song about a highway or road of life and the journey in which it can take us on and the challenges we face along the way.”He added: “When writing ‘Soldiers Of Love’ I remember having a very clear visual image for the song, almost like a film soundtrack.
It’s the first time we’ve recorded bagpipes on a Feeder track as we felt they would add to the slight Celtic feel of the song.
It was originally going to stay more of an acoustic style track but I felt the song could be more cinematic and grander sonically.”The double LP, which is out on April 5, 2024 through Big Teeth Music (via Townsend Music / Absolute Label Services), completes a trilogy of albums joined to 2022’s ‘Torpedo’.
