Feeler (Marcella Detroit album)


Feeler is the third studio album by British-based American musician Marcella Detroit. It was first released in September 1996 by AAA Records in the UK, ironically, the lead single "I Hate You Now..." was released in the same month as "I Can Drive", the lead single from Detroit's former band Shakespears Sister's third album #3.

Critical reception

Aaron Badgley from Allmusic lauded the album, calling it "honest", and "infinitely better than her debut". In contrast, Andy Gill from The Independent gave the album a negative review, saying "Detroit's problem is one of over-abundant choice – she's a good guitarist, a good pianist, a good vocalist, a good harmonica player, and probably pretty nifty on bass and drums, too, but she needs more discipline as to their application."
