“Feeding People performed marvelously their brand of psychedelic/space rock a la Amon Düül II meets Janis Joplin and Syd Barrett fused into one frighteningly powerful cosmic entity. A lot of bands can have a tendency to sound the same, especially considering the seemingly constant succession of performances confronted with during SXSW, but some are different. Feeding People is DIFFERENT. And I mean that in the best possible sense. They will drag you down into their psychedelic sonic vortex, and you will enjoy it. The only drawback to an otherwise great performance was that the vocals were just not turned up loud enough- Jessie can howl with the best of ‘em, but the lack of decent sound levels kept FP from putting it over the top. It did not however keep them from shredding my mind to a bloody tabula rasa. And this did in fact, seem an effortless task for them.”
