Collective Soul, also known as Rabbit to differentiate it from the band's 1995 album of the same name, is the eighth studio album by American rock band Collective Soul. It was released on August 25, 2009.[2]

Background

Rabbit is Collective Soul's first release with a parent label since the group started its own independent El Music Group label in 2004.[1] It also effectively marks their return to Atlantic Records, as that label purchased Roadrunner in 2006.[citation needed]

Rabbit includes two songs ("You" and "Understanding") that were written by all members in the band, a first for Collective Soul.[1] According to the singer, guitarist and keyboard player Ed Roland: "I think it's the confidence that the other guys have gotten in their music skills and the songwriting and also, for lack of a better term, me letting go of my ego a little bit..."[1]

Commercial performance

The album debuted at No. 24 on the Billboard 200,[3] and No. 10 on the Top Rock Albums chart,[4] selling around 17,300 copies in its first week of release.[5] It also debuted at No. 9 on the Canadian Albums chart.[6]

The album has sold 71,000 copies in the United States as of September 2015.[7]
