For his next album, however, he once again used session musicians; songwriters played a role as before, and both Huizenga and Martin returned to make a few contributions, but overall the playing, collaboration, and production were dominated by Tawgs Salter, Steven Klasios, and Jeff 'Diesel' Dalziel. Edwin himself played guitar on one track and programmed another, both firsts for him in the studio. The album, titled Edwin & the Pressure, was released in Summer 2002. The album contained the catchy pop-rock of the previous album, but with a harder edge both musically and lyrically. The lead single written by Edwin, Thomas Salter, Jeff Dalziel, Meher Steinberg and Memphis , "Superhoney", was given a lukewarm reception at first by the various rock media, but became a solid rock radio and video hit due to support from the existing fan base. A second single, "Impossible", fared reasonably well on rock radio. The third single, "Let's Dance", backed by a video, failed to receive significant video or radio play. Eventually, due to poor record sales and creative disagreements, Edwin was dropped from Sony at his own request and disappeared yet again.
