About
In 1990, the band paid homage to its influences in the Pacific Northwest scene of the '60s with the EP Stomp and Shout and Work It on Out, while a second album, Thrillsphere, was issued by PopLlama Records by the end of the year. By this time, the band was touring frequently, sharing stages with like-minded acts such as the Mono Men, Crackerbash, Beat Happening, Phono-Comb, and the Woggles. In 1992, Girl Trouble released a project close to their hearts, an EP of theme songs from four of their favorite Elvis Presley movies, and the following year the band unleashed its third album, New American Shame, a title that would be borrowed as the name of a Seattle-based rock outfit. (Bon in turn borrowed the phrase from an old scandal sheet.) Girl Trouble toured extensively in the United States, Canada, and Europe in support of New American Shame, and released an EP of highlights from a gig in Chicago. In 1996, Girl Trouble appeared in the documentary Hype!, about the Pacific Northwest rock scene, and album number four, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, dropped in 1998, but as the demands of real life began to intrude, Girl Trouble pulled back on their schedule, never breaking up but touring less and staying out of the recording studio except to cut occasional compilation appearances.
