So Wound is the second (and last) album by the Halifax (Nova Scotia) rock band Jale, released in 1996 on Sub Pop Records.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> A consciously more power-pop album than its predecessor, Dreamcake, So Wound received critical praise but failed to make significant radio impact.

Shortly after the release of So Wound, the band split up.

Critical reception

Ira Robbins, in Trouser Press, wrote: "Appreciably elevating the band’s skill and confidence levels from indie pop cuteness to real contention (while upholding the lyrical fortitude), the album is a taut, purposeful marvel of great pop songs in a number of cohesively connected modes."<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
