'' is the fifth studio
Album by
American band
Boston , released in 2002. (See
2002 In Music ).
This album featured important changes to the band's line up. First, it marked the return of lead singer
Brad Delp , who was absent on the previous album,
Walk On . Additionally, it is Boston's first album with Kimberly Dahme, who provided the lead vocals on the track "With You".
Important to note is the album's inclusion of a live version of "Livin' for You", a song that first appeared on
Walk On .
Following a tradition set by the previous album, the final page of the album's booklet is dedicated to preserving the environment, providing web links to such organizations as
PETA . The album's titular song, "''Corporate America''", is a criticism of
Corporate Corruption , which it says has pervaded and perverted nearly every aspect of American culture and even daily life.
Though this was the band's final album with Brad Delp (he died on
March 9 ,
2007 ), new material featuring Delp had been recorded for a forthcoming album which was incomplete at the time of his death. This is not surprising considering that each Boston LP was several years in the making.
