Stockbridge, Georgia (1989 – present)
On August 25, 2009, Collective Soul released their eighth studio album, another self-titled, but designated by the band as “Rabbit”. The album was released by Roadrunner Records. The first confirmed single off of the new album, titled “Staring Down”, was sent to radio stations on June 8, 2009, and the second confirmed single is “Welcome All Again”, which was sent to stations on July 6, 2009.
“Staring Down” has reached the top 20 on the Mediabase Hot AC chart and has also charted on Billboard’s Adult Top-40 chart.
Afterwords, released in 2007, was the seventh studio album by the hard-rocking band from the tiny town of Stockbridge, GA that’s gone on to become multi-platinum hit-makers playing all over the world.
Bright as California sunshine, the first single “Hollywood” features an undeniable melody with tinges of ’80s pop. Singer/ songwriter Ed Roland puts a bouncy energy to his sly lyrics that compare Tinsel Town to a naughty girl (or is it the other way around?): “Yeah, Hollywood/ You know I love you more than one man should/ Yeah, Hollywood/ kiss me, kiss me good.”
While “Hollywood” may strike listeners as the perfect top-down summer song, much of the rest of Afterwords captures Collective Soul at a time when Roland is writing from a hard-won, much more mature perspective, and his band mates are contributing from equally strong musical directions.

So how do we get last FM to scrobble the new "Rabbit" album since it attributes all the songs to the first self titled album from 95?
