Fed by Ravens
Fed by Ravens was from Minnesota. I heard these dudes on that Blessed Be This Killing comp (1, 2) wayyyy back, and never got to hear them again. After some hard work, and a contribution from Nathan with a rip of Fed by Ravens' 1998 self titled 7", I can now not only listen to them, but share them with everyone. I will say this now, these dudes' music definitely evolved over the years. Their shit on their self titled, which was recorded at the same time as their song featured on the Blessed Be This Killing (1, 2) comp, is WAY BETTER than the stuff on the other two records from 1999 and 2000. Eventually, as you can pretty much hear from the sound on their Second Guessing Second Chances record, they went on to become the band, Tora Tora Torrence. But, ignoring that, their early shit rules.

Thanks for posting this. I sang on the 7" and the comp track (recorded during the same session), but quit the band prior to the full-lengths. I appreciate the kind words.
ReplyDeleteThanks for taking the time to post these albums. There are 2 tracks that skip on "This Service of Love"
ReplyDeleteTrack 4 - This Little Light of Mine ( skip at 2:55 )
Track 8 - Nineteen Naughty Nine ( end of track missing )
I would love to get a complete version of the album. I used to own 2 physical copies of it because i loved it so much
After they released Second Guessing Second Chances i saw them play with 2 other awesome hardcore groups Le Shok, and Song of Zarathustra, in an epic house show in the basement. Somewhere in S. Minneapolis. Millennial style.
