Sky Cries Mary - 'Seeds' (Collective Fruit)

"This five track release is said to be an EP, but in fact it turns out to be the length of a full album. First two tracks, "Remember The Wind" (21:43) and "Chickaboom Cocktail" (15:36) are a bit different than the usual Sky Cries Mary music that I've heard but I believe I liked those two off this CD the best. Also, the multi-media track for "Chickaboom Cocktail" was nice. Wish this band would maybe reunite and do a full scale tour again sometime. Before I was ever aware of them, they played twice in my area."

Another great album from Sky Cries Mary

"This album - amongst all other CDs from Sky Cries Mary - is a must. If you like this kind of music, then this CD is for you. Remember me the wind is an easy-to-fall-in-love-with song with Anisa's beautiful voice. Chickaboom cocktail is a completely different song. For me for the first time it was strange a bit, but now I like this one also. No doubt it is an interesting song. On the original CD there is a small film by Roderick accompanied with Chickaboom cocktail. I cannot describe it, you have to see and hear it on your own. Sonho is a nice song also. Is there anybody who knows in which language the song is? Cloud splitter is maybe the most SCM-like song. So the CD is great. The only problem is that it is just too short. And what is a much bigger problem, and makes me very sad is that Sky Cries Mary no longer exists. We won't get any new SCM songs anymore :-(
If you like this CD, I recommend you everything from SCM. Their first two albums were made without Anisa, and they are a bit different, so first of all try This Timeless Turning, Exit at the Axis, A Return to the Inner Experience, Moonbathing on Sleeping Leaves and Fresh Fruits for the Liberation.
The CD cover -I think- was made by Anisa and looks great. The cover is just like their music: very impressive. Their art is very unique. If you take the risk to open up yourself to their music, you will find yourself in a completely different world."

Eclectic, spacy, and keening

"This is a wonderful little EP. My only complaint is that it is so short--I would like a full album! There are four songs; the first two especially show new directions for SCM, but all are excellent. Buy it!--at this price, you can't go wrong."
