Collective Soul, Afterwords.

If you have decent taste* in music, then you like Collective Soul. So you’ve likely heard their latest, Afterwords. No? Did you like Dosage but not care for their 2004 release, Youth? Well. You should check it out. Send me an email, and I’ll send you a song. And not the one from the “American Idol” commercial.

Two of our three wedding songs were from Ed Roland and the gang. “Heaven’s Already Here” and “Needs.” The first time Dan and Paulie and I met, we jammed on Collective Soul. “Gel” I think. I don’t recommend music very often, but I think I should start.

*[Mine is objectively good.]

And then there’s the track that a lot of professional sound engineers like to use for sound check. The name is escaping me, but it’s the one that has a very distinct left channel to right channel transition before jamming out LOUD.

It’s “Heavy” from Dosage, tied for my favorite Collective Soul album. I freakin love that song.
