Volcano (supergroup)

Volcano was a supergroup band, formed by Meat Puppets frontman Curt Kirkwood and Sublime drummer Bud Gaugh after the breakup of Eyes Adrift. They released one self-titled studio album in 2004.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Kirkwood said: " [The producer] says it sounds a lot like Eighties, SST-era, Up On the Sun Meat Puppets. But there's more bouncy rhythms -- we do a lot more stuff that was inspired by the Selecter, the Specials and Bob Marley."

Kirkwood wanted to name the band "Pine Cone", but was outvoted by other group members. [ [http://www.chartnet.com/damn/2006/07/1413.cfm Curt Kirkwood Rambles On, And Along, Alone And With The Meat Puppets] , Chart Attack, Friday July 14, 2006. accessed July 19, 2007]
