Re.De.Fine is the third album by the Chicago-based music group Soil. The album was released on March 23, 2004 via J Records. This was the band's final album with vocalist Ryan McCombs before he left Soil in October that year. Re.de.fine also marked Soil's last release through J Records after the band was dropped due to disappointing sales. The album peaked at #78 on the Billboard 200 chart[2] and featured one single and video for "Redefine" which managed to chart higher than any previous single. The track "Pride" was also featured in the video game Madden NFL 2004. According to the album booklet, the track "Remember" was dedicated to the memory of Dave Williams.

Touring

Soil toured for a year in promotion of Re.de.fine which included a European schedule with Drowning Pool and Damageplan. Touring ending in late 2004 when Ryan McCombs suddenly departed from the group. This forced the cancellation of future shows including a mini tour with Sevendust, a festival with Damageplan, and a UK tour. They were also scheduled to perform with Damageplan on December 10 but unfortunately would not due to the murder of Dimebag Darrell two days prior.
