They enjoyed popularity on alternative rock and mainstream rock radio throughout the early to mid 1990s, recording seven #1 mainstream rock hits.

Current Band Members: Ed Roland, Dean Roland, Joel Kosche, Will Turpin, and Ryan Hoyle. Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead and come across the phrase "collective soul." Although author Ayn Rand actually uses the phrase in a negative connotation, using the "collective soul" as a threat to the main character's sense of individualism, Ed is quick to point out, "...we're not preaching Ayn Rand, objectivism, egoism, or anything...we just dug the name..."
