''Dosage'' is the fourth studio album by the American alternative rock band Collective Soul. The album was released on Atlantic Records in February 1999 and peaked at #21 on the ''Billboard'' albums chart. The album's title was derived from a catchphrase they used to describe burnout after their previous tour.〔(Collective Soul Interview on Yahoo! Music )〕 The first single from the album, "Heavy", gave the band another #1 hit on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and spent a then record-breaking 15 weeks on the top spot. "Heavy" was also featured in the opening of the video game ''NHL 2001'' and in the 2014 Golden Corral ad. The second single released, "Run", also gained broad mainstream radioplay and was featured on the soundtrack for the 1999 film ''Varsity Blues''.〔http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139699/soundtrack〕 Over nine years after the album's release, the single "Tremble for My Beloved" was featured in the 2008 film ''Twilight'' and its accompanying soundtrack. In 2012, the band performed the album in its entirety (save "Dandy Life") during their Dosage Tour. ==Recording== ''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''.〔(CityBeat: Soul Searching )〕 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. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dosage (album)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
