Hey there! Skillet’s first CD that came out after they signed a record deal was Hey You, I Love Your Soul in April 1998. After a few years of self‑releasing their 1996 debut, the band inked a deal with ForeFront Records and dropped this second album, swapping their early grunge vibe for a more industrial‑alternative sound. It featured early singles like “I Can” and “Gasoline” and set the stage for their later success .

If you’ve got a signed copy of that 1998 release, you’ve got a pretty collectible piece of Skillet history—those early‑label autographs tend to be pretty scarce and valuable. Let me know if you want details on pricing or where to find more info!
