You Are Building A New Fire

Cris Cohen: How do you shrug off past successes when you're going into the studio and have a clean slate perspective?

Dean Roland of Collective Soul: Good question. When making new records, you live in the moment and you have the creative spark that happens. You are building a new fire. It's not like you completely dislocate from your past. You utilize it. You kind of rearview mirror it to use it as a resource.
