I Mother Earth - We Got Love (new song)

I've been a fan of these guys for over a decade, although more so, around 10 years ago. And it is not to be ignored the fact original singer Edwin is not with them in this reunion of sorts. What I'm unclear is, is this something for a new record coming soon? I'm guessing yes.

There's also a new Big Wreck album that just came out, which is surprisingly pretty good. And some of the members of IME and The Tea Party, among others, did that project Crash Karma back in 2010. Maybe there's a revivial of the mid-to-late 1990's Canadian grungey-prog stuff now?

No idea. But perhaps The Tea Party will return as well.

This is a new "supergroup" of sorts of Canadian alternative (even proggy in some ways) bands.

Edwin - Singer from I Mother Earth, Edwin, Victor (Alex Lifeson of Rush solo record)
Jeff Burrows - drummer from The Tea Party
Amir Epstein bass player from the Canadian band Zygote
Mike Turner - ex-guitarist from Our Lady Peace.

This is their 1st single called "Awake" which was released last November



Their self-titled debut album drops on March 16th. Still looking for artwork and a tracklist.

I'd be lying if it I didn't think it sounded a bit like 2nd rate I.M.E. but like Edwin's solo stuff, I will give this a go. Although it does seem a lot of these so-called "supergroups" or just sideprojects never seem to blow me away or be as good as the previous bands the members were in (or currently are in).

And while they're at it, where is the obligatory member of the other underated but still somewhat known Canadian alt-grunge-prog band, The Big Wreck?

Crash Karma even opened for the Stone Temple Pilots I guess.
