Initial pressings of FROM THE GROUND UP will include a Collective Soul guitar pick.

Includes rare tracks and acoustic versions Collective Soul's hits.

Though Collective Soul was often lumped in with the legions of second-string grunge bands that followed in the wake of Nirvana and Pearl Jam's massive success, astute listeners always knew that the group was about crafty pop songwriting more than overblown angst. It seems natural, then, that leader Ed Roland's tunes work just as well in a stripped-down setting as they do accompanied by a wall of slickly produced guitars.

FROM THE GROUND UP was recorded on a whim in only two days, in an effort to capture the group and a batch of their (mostly) new songs in a fresh, unadulterated state. The sound quality and performances here are the equal of anything Collective Soul has done. "Compliment" starts with some sparkling, soulful acoustic-guitar strumming in the vein of Tom Petty's WILDFLOWERS, while "She Said" is driven by a loping guitar/bass unison riff and bluesy vocals that recall the Black Crowes. The disc's highlight, though, is a slowed-down, acoustic version of the group's chart-topping "December," which puts focus on the song's dark and brooding lyrics. FROM THE GROUND UP is an illuminating look into the basic elements of the Collective Soul sound.

5 stars Like great songs? Get this!!
This CD is a collection of 8 stripped down songs from the songwriting genius (geniuses?!) of Collective Soul. All the songs are done acoustically, but are not just boring strum-alongs. They are all fantastic songs and, to hear them like this, just adds to their colour and texture. If you like CS, you'll LOVE this CD!

5 stars A Great addition my Collective Soul Collection
This CD is awesome. I have been listening to it every day since I opened it. It is great to hear the acoustic version to their previous songs and the 2 new songs are awesome. The song titled "Youth" of their CD YOUTH is my new favorite.

5 stars A special treat for CS fans
Collective Soul is my favorite band, and this acoustic release does not disappoint. They provide a delightful twist to some songs off their recent release as well as some old favorites. If you liked Music in High Places, you'll love this. But even the casual fan can find some true gems here.
