INTERESTING FACTS (a la wikipedia)
– Dosage is the fourth studio album by Atlanta-based American alternative rock band Collective Soul.
– The album peaked at #21 in Billboard’s albums chart.
– The album’s title was derived from a catchphrase they used to describe burnout after their previous tour.
– Dosage marked a change in recording and style for Collective Soul. Unhappy with the production and sound of the previous album, Disciplined Breakdown, the band focused more on production and technique for the recording of Dosage.
– The result led to an arduous six-month recording period where according to guitarist Dean Roland: “The way we recorded Dosage, we were really meticulous about everything that we did for that record.”
– More than before the band progressed to a high production pop-rock sound. This status was obvious with the extensive use of loops, Pro-Tools effects, and synth-pop sounds, especially in comparison with the band’s previous three albums which are more organic and raw in sound.
– “She Said” was a hidden track after the track “Crown”.
– “She Said” also appears on the 1997 Scream 2 soundtrack.
