Description
Veruca Salt has successfully weathered its personnel crisesand returns as strong and defiant as ever. Sole remaining founding member Louise Post has started afresh with a new label and a new band to orchestrate her musical vision; the result is RESOLVER.
"The Same Person" opens gently with a mantra segueing into "Born Entertainer", featuring Post's trademark double-octave vocals and a clever Cheap Trick pun. Upbeat vocal harmonies contrast severely with the abrasive lyrics of "Best You Can Get", while the melancholy power-ballad "All Dressed Up" tells the tale of a woman trying to reinvent herself to please her lover, and finding the cause an empty and unrewarding one. "Used To Know Her" could pass for a lament over the departure of co-founder Nina Gordon. "Yeah Man" contrasts quiet verses with big, vocal harmony-heavy choruses, and "Disconnected" features Louise sounding desperately emotional, with lines such as "it's kind of scary when you're lover leaves you for a lucky star". While RESOLVER focuses on varying degrees of romantic discontent, Louise Post appears quite comfortable at the helm of a revitalised Veruca Salt.
