This is the story of whatever happened to Veruca Sal The band got their name from a character from the 1964 book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Veruca Salt was formed in 1992 after Louise Post and Nina Gordon met through a mutual friend and hit it off and they started writing music together. .The pair began playing chicago area coffee houses and had their eye on expanding to an all-female quartet. The pair had put an ad in a local chicago newspaper looking for a female rhythm section, but Post and Gordon would closer to home enlisting Gordon’s brother Jim Shaprio would become Veruca Salt’s drummer and his friend Steve Lack would become the band's bassist. Meanwhile, Post and Gordon would share guitar and vocal duties. The addition of a rhythm section created the band’s trademark alternative rock sound. Full of teen rage- Veruca salt blended the sound of My Bloody Valentine and The Pixies. The band would play only a handful of shows before being noticed by indie label Minty Fresh Records who signed the band. Minty Fresh had previously signed Liz Phair and a handful of other acts. That’s not to say that major labels weren’t lining up to sign the band, in fact many major labels showed interest early on in the group, but Veruca Salt opted to go with an Indie label first as there was a buyout clause in the contract and they felt more comfortable with the scale of what they were doing. Prior to being signed Veruca Salt had already recorded a 4 song demo but their demo didn’t include the hit song ‘Seether’ that would become their first big hit Regardless Minty Fresh Records, which was basically ran by a 30 year old guy named Jim Powers out of his Chicago apartment, loved the sound of the band and offered to pay to have the band record a single. That single would turn into Seether/All Hail Me. Since Minty Fresh Records, was a tiny label, Powers was more in favor of first recording singles instead of full albums with bands he was interested in signing. In addition to that Powers had to wheel and deal and that he did. Prior to signing Veruca Salt, he made a deal with local producer Brad Wood who was short on cash and owned his own studio. Wood had previously worked with alternative rock acts liz phair and sunny day real estate. Powers paid Wood money upfront so he could come back later and either record 7 singles or 14 songs in the future with any future band he signed. Wood had envisioned that Powers would bring 7 different bands to record singles in his studio, but since the Seether/All Hail Me single was such a big hit within Chicago and on college campuses, Powers came back and asked Wood use the remainder of his credits just to record Veruca Salt's debut album American Thighs. By the end of 1994, Minty Fresh would sign a distribution deal with Geffen Records, who would re-release their debut album and give it the boost and marketing power it needed to get national exposure. The single Seether/All Hail Me would shoot up the rock charts peaking at number 8 and garnered a lot of play on MTV. The band also got a prime spot opening up for Hole on tour. And American Thighs would go gold selling over 500,000 copies. While the album would receive generally favourable reviews, not everyone was a fan. Some critics would slam the band for being just another group riding the coattails of Nirvana and compared Veruca Salt to the alternative rock group The Breeders who were led by women. As the band’s profile grew, in 1996 they hooked up with Nirvana producer Steve Albini to record a stop gap 4 song EP titled blow it out your ass it’s Vercua Salt. Here's Nina and Louise from Veruca Salt talking to MTV about why they recorded an EP that they didn't really care if it was successful or not. You know i wanted to ask you about that. Well i think we tried to diffuse the pressure of having to follow it up following it up with a big single for our new EP blow it out your ass it's Veruca Salt um really just so we wouldn't feel the pressure. We wanted to put something without a big single without a big
