Nina Gordon, who wrote and sang both Veruca Salt hits
(Seether and Volcano Girls),
started her solo career in the world of easy-listening with
Tonight And The Rest Of My Life (Warner Bros, 2000).
Several songs sound like a cross between
Madonna and
Aimee Mann.
On the other hand,
Veruca Salt's Resolver (Beyond Music, 2000) is basically
Louise Post's project, straddling to be commercial without sounding too obvious, and to be alternative without alienating the masses.
Veruca Salt's drummer Stacy Jones formed American Hi-Fi
to play techno-pop a` la Electric Light Orchestra:
American Hi-Fi (Island, 2001), with Flavor of the Week and
I'm A Foot,
The Art Of Losing (Island, 2003)
and
Hearts on Parade (Maverick, 2005).
Veruca Salt's IV (2007) was largely a non-event.

Nina Gordon, che scrisse e cantò entrambi gli hits delle Verruca Salt (Seether e Volcano Girls), iniziò la propria caerriera solista nel mondo dell’easy-listening con Tonight And The Rest Of My Life (Warner Bros, 2000). Parecchie canzoni suonano come un incrocio fra Madonna e Aimee Mann.
Pertanto, il nuovo lavoro delle Veruca Salt Resolver (Beyond Music, 2000) risulta essere fondamentalmente il progetto di Louise Post, commerciale senza essere troppo ovvio, ed alternativo senza tentativi di alienazione delle masse.
La batterista delle Veruca Salt Stacy Jones ha formato gli American Hi-Fi, I quali hanno all’attivo American Hi-Fi (Island, 2001), con Flavor of the Week and I'm A Foot, e The Art Of Losing (Island, 2003).
