You can tell Veruca Salt were considered a success when they were allowed to make videos like this for their second album. Volcano Girls is a terrific song and even rivals Seether to these ears. Shutterbug mentions Bristol, and Louise sings "telly" to mean TV. When did any American last do that?
I'm going to be in all sorts of trouble from a certain young lady for writing this, but surely I can't be the only one who found Louise Post to be exceedingly cute? All the same, they were never quite the same after Nina Gordon quit the band. Thank goodness the original lineup is back together. So here's one from last year's brilliant reunion album 'Ghost Notes'.
Soundtrack:
- Volcano Girls - Veruca Salt (from 'Eight Arms To Hold You')
- Shutterbug - Veruca Salt (from 'Eight Arms To Hold You')
- Laughing In The Sugar Bowl - Veruca Salt (from 'Ghost Notes')
Judging from earlier posts, this "certain young lady" can only be Miki Berenyi, but either way: you're right, of course, as you usually are: Louise was cute indeed, still is, in fact!
ReplyDeleteIm sure of two things - 1) Miki Berenyi doesn't read this blog; and 2),If she did, I'm not sure she'd care too much about my affections for Louise. MrsRobster, on the other hand...
DeleteThink I might've missed the reunion LP. One to dig out.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree to Dirk. Great band and fantastic songs. Great post Robster.
ReplyDeleteYup!! Great and underated band.
ReplyDeleteLouise is lovely. I won't stand in your way. I'll take Miki. You take Louise. In my dreams.
