feedtime was an independent postpunk rock trio from Sydney, Australia. (The name is spelled with a lowercase f.) Their sound was loud, primitive, and brutal. The most distinctive musical element is thick, roaring electric guitar played with a slide. Their loud but stripped-down, minimalist approach led them to be compared to the British postpunk band Wire[although feedtime didn`t know wire`s music], but feedtime's sound also heavily referenced rural American country and blues. A large influence from classic rock is most easily heard on their covers LP Cooper S on which they covered the Rolling Stones and the Animals in addition to punk forebears like the Ramones and the Stooges. feedtime made four albums in the 1980s; the last three were distributed internationally by Rough Trade.

The three members of feedtime are crammed into the apex of the sharp angle formed by the two outer walls, and the triangle shaped bar in the center of the room takes up all the prime space.
But feedtime songs are stripped down to the most basic riffs and then pulverized with bass and drums laced with guitar heavy with distortion and played in a unique style that only adds to the bottom end of the sound.
But feedtime themselves are not that impressed by what they've managed to get on record; part of this is the result of the limited money they have to spend on studio time, and part of it is due to what they consider to be a severe shortage of quality recording engineers and mastering facilities.
