Where this album fits

Career context
Released on May 16, 2000, 'Resolver' was Veruca Salt's third studio album and marked their first release after the departure of founding member Louise Post. This transition came after a period of relative quiet following their 1997 album 'Eight Arms to Hold You', positioning the band in a phase of artistic reinvention as they sought to redefine their sound and overcome internal challenges.
