The light behind her eyes...
'The Same Person' is an eerie demo(the studio version is equally good, if brief); 'Straight Jacket' is a lot of fun(Louise still has her sense of humor); 'Smoke & Mirrors' is a pithy look at the high life. After suffering a horrible break-up with musical partner Nina Gordon(and reportedly with her boyfriend as well), Louise Post rises from the ashes with this single from the incredible "Resolver" CD. Great stuff.


OK
But out of all the Cd's i highly sujest "Volcano Girls". I think that this CD wasnt the BEST from them. Its a clasic rock song!.


If you are a true fan
"officially Dead" is a reminder of what we were left with, with 2000's "RESOLVER". This CD isn't Veruca Salts best EP album all put together as one, but it has some of the bands best songs ever. Straightjacket is a fast paced, easy to learn the words to and fun to sing along to rollick. "Blissfull queen" is toned down a bit from the previous but speeds up soon after it's eerie introduction and maked for a beautiful and memorable track. "the light behind your eyes" is a pretty song with very thin instrumentation. Louise's voice sounds very whispery in this song. And the final track "the same person" which is a remix of a song on the "resolver" cd is a slow and drawn out dreamlike gem that will easily put any drowsy listener to sleep in no time. This CD is worth the money if you are a true VS fan. If you can't wait for their new CD and you want to hear there new sound this Cd is for you.
