Rooted in the early 90s alternative scene, Dig is the debut album of Ontario-based rockers I Mother Earth. I found this to be is an interesting release as there is a mixture of alternative rock infused with heavy metallic riffs at times and funky basslines at others. The album's best moments are concentrated in the first half where tracks like the angst-ridden 'Levitate', the heavy 'Rain Will Fall' and the rhythmic 'Not Quite Sonic' appear. Many tracks are stretched due to extended jamming and while this may seem as a merit, in many times it becomes weary.

What makes this album a bit different from other grunge records is how this album decided to go further by crafting songs that were often longer than the (personally subjective) standard 3 min, 30 sec track length. Having such an uncommon feature regarding the mentioned genre gives it's listeners a unique listening experience. For the most part, this album's elongated instrumentals work out but still feels there could've been instrumental sections that should've remained unheard. Still an awesome record!
