"So Much for the Afterglow", the title track of Everclear's third album, came out on Capitol in 1997 and was one of five singles the band pulled from the record. Art Alexakis wrote the words and produced it himself, with Neal Avron co-producing and running the tape; the music is credited to the whole band, and Andy Wallace mixed it.
The album is usually heard as Everclear's big swerve away from the punk and grunge scrap of their earlier records toward something shinier and more pop-minded, and the gamble paid off. "Everything to Everyone", "I Will Buy You a New Life" and "Father of Mine" all lived on MTV's Total Request Live, the band was suddenly a mainstream proposition, and the record became the best seller of their career.
