It seems like every couple of months I find an excuse to write about Veruca Salt. Well, now I really have a reason. Here’s the first single from the band’s much-anticipated (by me) IV, out 9/12 on Sympathy For The Record Industry.

If it wasn’t already clear, it is now: the Veruca girls parted ways after Eight Arms ’cause Nina wanted to write ballads for WB dramas … and Louise wanted to fucking rock.

    Okay, Scott, you’re putting up new posts like every 3 seconds, slow it down man and focus on the relevant stuff (no more “Diddy says he invented sexy” stuff).

    wonder if Sympathy for the Record Industry is gonna rape this band of earned monies? on second thought, yes.

  3. good to see VS is still ripping off their album titles.

    this song fucking sucks. worst lyrics and rift i’ve heard in ages.

    i remember when this band was good.

    nina may writing ballads and making good money off licensing deals, but this song is just god fucking awful and explains why louise is having to hawk her guitars on ebay to make rent.

    ignore the one i didn’t mean to post with the typo in it and focus on how bad the song really is instead. hawking guitars on ebay for rent. for real.

    But the Seether’s Louise!!!!

  9. Greg  |   Posted on Aug 16th, 2006

    is Louise still really fat?

  10. erin  |   Posted on Aug 16th, 2006

    not super fat anymore. she wears spanx though and i don’t even want to think about all the sagging…

  11. I heard that Louise looks like Grimace

  12. derek  |   Posted on Aug 17th, 2006

    Yeah, assholes, way to rip off your album title from…the Romans?!?!!

  13. beth  |   Posted on Aug 17th, 2006

    Resolver and anything after it never should’ve happened.

  14. Jeff  |   Posted on Aug 17th, 2006

    EUGH! That song is TERRIBLE. I hated Resolver and actually hoped that Louise had learned to write a song in the past 6 years. I was wrong :(

  15. ahoy  |   Posted on Aug 17th, 2006

    don’t mind erin. she’s just bitter that now nina’s the fat one!

    and that nina’s album is so boring only 4 people post on her board.

  16. Thomas  |   Posted on Aug 17th, 2006

    Nina’s pregnant and she’s still tiny. There’s a huge difference between being larger because of pregnancy and being a blimp because you’re an addict and a drunk.

  17. Fuck the Children  |   Posted on Aug 18th, 2006

    “You’re texting Vegan Sex again.” Ha.

    And anyway – however fat, however broke, Louise’s music will never be as irrelvent as Nina’s. Never.

  18. Sounds really good, thx.

    Oh yeah? Well, I hope Nina’s babies look like monkeys! or horses since she loves to write about them so much.

  20. Jacob  |   Posted on Aug 18th, 2006

    the song sucks. i’ve been trying to give it a chance but it sucks. why the hell would they release it as the teaser or the single or whatever. release fragile, dammit! or something good.

    nina’s new album is amazing, by the way.

  21. djelmo  |   Posted on Aug 23rd, 2006

    Great song. Louise is a rockgoddes. Nina is a boring tart.

  22. defender  |   Posted on Aug 24th, 2006

    Wow, what a sardonic trio you people are. How dare you talk about Louise Post in that fashion. And what does her prior weight have to do with anything? I hope you all choke on your own bile. If you knew Louise or Nina you’d know they are really nice girls and have accomplished more in life than you can ever dream of. Go analzye your life or lack there of and keep your negativity to yourselves..

  23. give them a break. its better than being a total pop tart. i mean the band has been ravaged over the years… give them a chance.

  24. i saw veruca salt last tuesday in albuquerque. they were good. i luv the rock. anyway, i’d ‘hit’ it. she looked damn good for being ~40yrs old n’ all.

    YD Rules!!

  25. twinnstar  |   Posted on Aug 24th, 2007

    thats not why they broke up.

    i love louise, but she needs to stop sucking on helium balloons.
