I Mother Earth

[Eazy E]

Did they ever make it in the U.S.?

I just copied all their old CDs to my ipod and it's GOOD.  I'm suprised such a diverse rock band wasn't more popular.  Is anyone a fan?  I've been playing "So Gently We Go" over and over and over, I love the build-up.

They were great while they lasted.

The Quiksilver Meatdream is "different" to say the least, but I love it as much as their other albums.

I guess you're the only other fan!  I haven't listened to TQSM nearly as much as the other CDs, but I agree it is very good.  I remember listening to Dig on cassette when it first came out, so I have the fondest memories of all those songs.

I like them before Edwin left...afterwards they dont do much for me

they rock though, i saw them live a couple times....so much energy it rocked

"Used to Be Alright" and "Rain will fall" are 2 of my fav tunes by them

They're on an extended-heitus I think.

Brian Byrd (vocals) released a solo album last year, so I guess we'll see how the solo career plays out before we hear from IME again..

They were big up here in Canada in the 90's until their original singer left for solo work.  I didn't like the new singer too much or the material they released with him.  Their stuff with Edwin, the original singer is solid stuff.  I still enjoy listening to that stuff today. 

"Not Quite Sonic" is still one of my favourite tunes....

[Eazy E]

I was looking into what the band was upto now... I guess Edwin just released another solo album not too long ago.  I thought the singles off the first CD were good despite being different in style to I Mother Earth's stuff.  I remember when he put his second solo album out too, "Edwin and the Pressure", but for the life of me I can't recall a single song from it...

I think he put out two singles from it, but the only really big one, and the one Im sure your thinking of was called "Superhoney."

Thanks!... "Superhoney" is the name that I recognize.  I just downloaded that song and one called "Firecracker" off that CD, they actually sound pretty good!

[hellfirecan]

^check out "Not Quite Sonic", "One More Astronaut"...good tunes

They came out when a whole bunch of good Canadian bands with three word names were all over the airwaves up here.  I Mother Earth, Our Lady Peace, Age of Electric, Grapes of Wrath, Matthew Good Band, The Tragically Hip (still rockin' and still awesome), The Tea Party, Wide Mouth Mason

I absolutely love "Superhoney" still to this day.

I think he'd make a great opener for Gn'R.
