Feeder bassist Taka Hirose has revealed that he narrowly escaped blinding himself in one eye last week while filming for Channel 4. The slow motion ident was to feature the band smashing their equipment. However, when Hirose smashed his bass, shards of the instrument flew up and hit him in the face. He was treated on the scene by members of St John's Ambulance and later taken to hospital but discharged in time for the band to fly to Japan to play the Fuji Rocks festival.
