FEED was (is?) a band from San Antonio Texas that I believe is comprised of members from local metal/hardcore bands like Iron Age (and possibly a few others from that scene). However, I am not 100% sure on the band's origins. There is not too much info about these guys that I can find anymore. I was turned onto FEED by a buddy of mine. Being into a lot of the bands coming out of Texas at the time (i.e. Iron Age, Power Trip, Bitter End, Mammoth Grinder etc..) it was pretty certain that this record would be up my alley, and surely it was.
FEED is not a crossover metal/hardcore band. However, more or so in the vein of Helmet, Alice in Chains, and Failure. When I first received this release it was only a 4 song EP with tracks 7-10 on it. Above is a collection of demo tracks and the 4 song Human Engine EP. The EP is some of my personal favorites. However, I have been into a lot of the demo songs lately as they remind me of early Helmet, and the Melvins. This discography was put together in 2009. The only proper release that I know of was the EP on cassette. I am hoping that someday someone will release this record on vinyl.
As I was getting to the link to download this record I came across another album that they released in 2012. I had no idea that these guys were still together and recording stuff, but apparently they are. Anyways, if you like what you hear on Human Engine, check out Thigpen. You won't be disappointed. You can purchase the new full length on cassette via Tedium Medium.
