The reunited Veruca Salt returned today with the first new songs in years! Today they released a limited edition 10" single featuring "The Museum of Broken Relationships," "It's Holy," and a newly recorded version of their classic song "Seether." A video for "It's Holy" is in the works, and the band is hoping to include footage of fans reacting to the song. The film's director Gary Kordan has asked fans to film themselves listening to the song for the first time:
"The moment you place the needle on the vinyl (or hear It's Holy for the first time) film yourself (or have a someone else film it) on your smartphone. I am looking for honest reactions to hearing the song for the first time: smiles, tears, dancing, rocking out, singing along or any honest reactions are all welcome. The only rule is that it isn't too dark and you hold the phone horizontally!"
Details on where to send the footage are posted here.
The new single was released today, so keep an eye out for it when you're out for Record Store Day. Clips from the single are available to preview below. A bad quality rip of side A is streaming here.
