Into the Pink

Into the Pink is the second album by the American rock band Verbena, released in 1999. It was their first release for Capitol Records. The album included the singles "Pretty Please" and "Baby Got Shot".

Production

The album was produced by Dave Grohl. It was the band's first album as a trio, with Anne Marie Griffin changing from second guitar to bass guitar after the departure of the original bass guitarist.

Critical reception

Rolling Stone called the album "skeletal rock with gravely roughed-up guitars." Entertainment Weekly wrote: "To make their potent retro cocktail, Verbena add a dash of Iggy Pop swagger and a measure of T. Rex power chords." The Stranger thought that "the distinctly crumbly crust of grunge is detectable among the sexy hot rock this time around." The Boston Globe declared that "Verbena's grimy guitar rock, as well as the potent vocal interplay between [AA] Bondy and bassist Anne Marie Griffin, still sounds as deadly as a rattlesnake."
