This is a comprehensive listing of official releases by Feeder, a London-based alternative rock group formed in Newport, South Wales in 1992 by songwriter Grant Nicholas (vocals, guitar) and Jon Lee (drums). Bassist Taka Hirose joined the band later. Feeder have released five studio albums, twenty-four singles, two compilation albums, two EPs and five Japanese import albums. This list does not include material recorded by Feeder members with Darling Buds, Little Angels and Skunk Anansie. It also does not include released material before they signed a recording contract.

Feeder's debut studio album Polythene (1997) won the accolade of Metal Hammer magazine's #1 album of the year.[1] It officially produced five commercially released singles and the song "High" became Feeder's UK Top 40 breakthrough. Their second album Yesterday Went Too Soon (1999), was their first appearance in the top 10 charts.

Their third album Echo Park (2001), spawned the UK Top 5 single "Buck Rogers" and became their first platinum-selling album. The following year in 2002, the band's drummer Jon Lee took committed suicide in his Miami home,[2] resulting in the band keeping out of the public eye for most of the year. It was during this time Grant Nicholas wrote a series of songs relating to their emotions and reactions to Jon's death, which formed their forth album Comfort in Sound (2002). Former Skunk Anansie and Little Angels member Mark Richardson was brought in for drum duties.[3] While the album received critical acclaim,[4] and became their first platinum album, it also spawned a 2003 national sell-out tour of 60,000 tickets, and then an arena tour at the end of the year.[5] Their fifth album Pushing the Senses (2005), became the band's highest charting release peaking at #2 and spawned a headline appearance at the Download Festival.[6] The album's chart peak was matched a year later in 2006 by their singles compilation. In June 2008, the band will be releasing their new album Silent Cry, with the first single being "We Are the People".
