Right, good point. Maybe it'll show up on Spotify in a year though.

(What I like about it is how cheesy it is lyrically. And tjat it's a mix of older stuff Levin's been part of plus modern metal especially drum-wise. And I don't get to hear Warr guitars and Chapman sticks too often because I'M NOT SHIPPING KC ALBUMS ACROSS THE OCEAN JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T TRUST THE DIGITAL AGE, FRIPP, and second-hand CD stores are going out of business and the places that still have CDs sure as balls aren't going to have KC)
 
True. always worth the semi-periodic check.
 
And oh. Yeah, if you like the cheese then you'll definitely have things to like here. I forget the song (I think Plutonium), but when it goes 'cue the music of ...' is where it really loses me. Those pseudo-cover moves are really low and uncreative IMHO, and really campy.
 
And true...they are excellent torchbearers of that modern-ish KC sound. Deep I think best exemplifies that.

I've met some cool people there. It's really not too hard to avoif the politics and stuff. Just censor who you follow. And avoid the stupid meme pages and parody accounts.

I'm probably more against the idea of twitter. Seems rather limiting and any of the 'news' items on  there could easily be posted elsewhere.

Agreed. I nigh loathe the stuff about Twitter that people talk about ("lol look people think this dude's account is Walmart and he backtalks people that complain about their shopping experience!" no. Grow up please. "What Did Ronald Turnip Tweet about Bark Bonanza Last Night???" I don't care thx.) but when you're the first to see a band is working on an album or the first to listen to an EP or someone laughed at a cheesy pun you about a new genre you made up about their mathiacci band it's kinda neat.

Yeah, little stuff like that last line (or if you care about sports similar things can be said regarding free agency moves/trades/etc) is the only thing I can see as a positive. (though I would think some other platform, such as the band's website, or ever facebook or other favorite social media outlet could also serve that purpose, of the twit didn't exist)

(mmm quk?)

Heeeey. You're on a music team right? What's more important for suggesting new bands: text about the band or links to the music?

I feel like 
I Mother Earth was formed in 1990 by brothers Christian (drums, percussion, production, lyrics) and Jagori 'Jag' Tanna (guitar, engineering, bass on first album), and Edwin (vocals). Note that Edwin was also vocalist for Alex Lifeson's Victor: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=11694 With a 5 song demo and only 13 shows later (noted for the jam sessions), the band signed to EMI (Canada) and Capitol (international). They recorded their first album, Dig http://https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL139B666F4E8357A1 http://https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dig_(I_Mother_Earth_album), in 1992 and released it the following year. The album includes: extended jams, latin percussion, slap bass, slap guitar, psychedelic lyrics and instrumentation, Hammond organ (just on the intro song I believe), 12 songs of which half are between 5:56 and 8:19 minutes long, and has been filed under the genres including alt rock/metal, funk metal, and grunge. The album beat Rush's Counterparts for 'hard rock album of the year' in 1994's Juno Awards (Canadian music awards). After that, members of both bands (Rush and IME) would collaborate on future projects (Alex Lifeson plays on "Like a Girl" on IME's Scenery and Fish, Geddy plays on "Good for Sule" on Blue Green Orange, and Edwin provided vocals for the majority of Lifeson's Victor). 
might be a bit long for just their creation, first album and their friendship with Rush.
