"Volcano" blows in from II, the second album by the Presidents of the United States of America, which Columbia put out on November 5, 1996, the same day the country went to the polls for president: about as on-the-nose as release dates get for a band with that name. Chris Ballew wrote it, with a songwriting credit to the band as a whole as well, and he produced it alongside Dave Dederer and Jason Finn, with engineer Craig Montgomery stepping up as co-producer and Jerry Finn handling the mix.
II also raided the band's past, re-recording "L.I.P.", "Lunatic to Love" and "Puffy Little Shoes" from Froggystyle, the cassette they put out themselves before their debut album.
