Salt (band)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Salt was a Swedish grunge/alternative rock band that had one hit single from the album Auscultate, "Bluster", in the United States in 1996. "So" was released as a second single from Auscultate but did not achieve the same level of success.

Salt formed in 1992 after its members had played together informally, with others, at an art school.[1] The group signed with Island Records in 1995, releasing the album Auscultate the following year; this album reached No. 33 on the U.S. Billboard Heatseekers chart.[2] The album's lead single, "Bluster", was a rock radio hit in America, reaching No. 21 on the Modern Rock Tracks chart.[3] The group released a collection of B-sides and unreleased material in 1997.
