Collider by Sam Roberts Band
Collider is an album by Sam Roberts Band, released in 2011. 3 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 4 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “Without a Map”, on 2 lists with a best position of #21.
Collider, released on May 10, 2011, was the fourth studio album from Montreal rocker Sam Roberts and the first billed to the Sam Roberts Band. It's a looser, groovier record than you might expect, and guests like percussionist Ben Massarella of Califone, woodwind man Stuart D. Bogie of Antibalas and Elizabeth Powell of Land of Talk widen the palette.
"I Feel You" hit Canadian radio first, a sweaty, hip-shaking lead single, followed by "Without a Map", while "The Last Crusade" was pitched to American listeners. The cover art riffs on the standard model of physics, the so-called Theory of Everything, which fits a record that throws a lot of elements into the same chamber just to see what happens. The 2012 Juno Awards put it up for Rock Album of the Year.
