Veruca Salt, named after a character from "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," became synonymous with 90s rock. However, the band members were unaware that "Veruca Salt" also referred to a plantar wart. The band's journey began in 1992 when Louise Post and Nina Gordon, inspired by their shared love of music, formed the group.
Both Post and Gordon, coming from musical families that eventually divorced, found solace in music. Post, already a musician, and Gordon, initially reluctant to pursue music, formed a bond. Despite Gordon's early struggles with instruments, she eventually learned the guitar with the help of her brother Jim Shapiro. The band aimed to create a unique sound, blending their influences like Prince, The Beatles, and My Bloody Valentine.
Veruca Salt initially started as a duo, playing folk music in Chicago coffee houses. They expanded to a four-piece, adding Jim Shapiro on drums and Jim Lack on bass. The band's name was chosen from "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," not because they were fans, but because they identified with the character's assertiveness.
As Chicago's music scene gained national attention, Veruca Salt's popularity soared. Their first gig was in Wicker Park, a hub for Chicago's independent music scene. The band's demo tape, taken to Minty Fresh Records by a local funk band, led to the recording of their single "Seether/All Hail Me."
"Seether" became a local hit, gaining traction on radio stations and catching the attention of major labels. Minty Fresh Records signed Veruca Salt, and they recorded their debut album, "American Thighs," in just 10 days. The album's success attracted Geffen Records, who signed the band to a five-album deal.
The Geffen deal, though financially lucrative, brought criticism and accusations of selling out. Veruca Salt faced backlash from the media, and their early live shows were criticized. Despite the challenges, "American Thighs" went platinum, and the band toured with acts like Hole and Live.
In 1996, Veruca Salt released the EP "Blow It Out Your Ass It's Veruca Salt" in response to critics. Their second album, "Eight Arms to Hold You" (1997), produced hits like "Volcano Girls." However, internal conflicts led to members leaving, and by 1998, only Louise Post remained.
Post continued with new members, releasing "Resolver" in 2000, but the band's momentum slowed. Veruca Salt went on hiatus in 2012, and during this time, Post and Gordon mended their friendship. The original lineup reunited in 2013, releasing "Ghost Notes" in 2015. The band actively supports various causes but lost master recordings in the 2008 Universal Studios fire.
Despite setbacks, Veruca Salt persists. In 2022, Louise Post released demos from the late '90s, and she plans to release a solo album in 2023. The band remains a resilient force in the ever-changing landscape of rock music.

I had the misfortune of seeing Veruca Salt twice. Both times I got free tickets. The first time was in a club and it was like watching four people that never played together in their lives, and had no idea how to write songs. Then in 1993 they played the WMRQ Jingle Bell Jam at the Oakdale Theater in Wallingford, CT. and once again I had access to free tickets. I said "There's no way they could have been that bad. Maybe it was a bad night for them" and went to the show. Yes, they were THAT BAD.

Found myself at the Boathouse in Norfolk, VA where Veruca Salt was playing a gig because I saw a video and liked the guitar tone. I remember it being a good show until they stopped it to plead with the crowd to stop moshing. Nina kept saying "You have to stop hurting people!" and threatened to leave. I just thought that was kind of weird. There was some irate dude next to me as well and he was mad because people were moshing at a veruca salt concert. He was a bigger guy and kept violently shoving people that were thrown into him back in the pit. This action was accompanied frequently with a comment of "This isn't f**king Slayer!"

I liked Veruca Salt and 1) they weren't overhyped or even hyped at all, I heard the song Seether on college radio and most of my friends heard it the same way; 2) their album was quite decent, and Seether was actually a major song, and my friends and I - all music industry folks in Nashville - LOVED the fact they took their name from Willy Wonka - if anything they were considered underrated and cool; unfortunately they didn't have the songwriting chops to fulfill a long-term career. I still turn up Seether when it comes on the radio. One classic song and a handful of acceptable album cuts are much more than most bands achieve.

Not overhyped at all, just had an "easier than others" path to getting signed and took a lot of heat for the perception that they hadn't earned their success like most of their contemporaries did. Post and Gordon were fantastic song writers. "Earthcrosser" is, in my opinion, a painfully underrated tune that perfectly encapsulates life on the road for a rock musician. It's also almost absurd to me that Jim Shapiro didn't even know how to play the drums until he was asked to be in the band. Goes a long way towards explaining why their live performances probably weren't top notch in the beginning.

As a documentary this video is nice. Covers most things. Only problem I have with it is, that when you make a statement in your title (even it being a question), then you at least have to prove it, or answer the question. Now it is nothing more than a clickbait title.
