Youth (Collective Soul Album)
''Youth'' is the sixth studio album by Collective Soul, released in November 2004. The album was the band's first on their own label, EL Music Group, after leaving Atlantic Records following the release of their greatest hits album, ''Seven Year Itch''. The album contains a more balanced pop-rock sound than their previous albums '' Dosage'' and ''Blender''. Background After 2000's ''Blender'' both Ed and Dean Roland went through divorces. The band attempted to work through these circumstances and, according to Dean, at one point had enough material for two albums.

The band eventually scrapped the material and completely started over. Track listing All tracks written by Ed Roland, except where noted. Personnel * Ed Roland – lead vocals, rhythm guitar, keyboards * Dean Roland – rhythm guitar * Will Turpin – bass guitar, backup vocals * Joe ...
