Rotting Pinata was the first cd I ever bought. Sponge rocks!

My bar band ends every gig with Plowed. Such a fun tune.

I <3 the 90's. I feel like it was a great time to grow up and come of age!

Good song. Singer has a Layne Staley kind of vibe.

(Did you miss the '60's & '70's?)
Sponge...Another band I missed ever hearing.
I kind of like that one. Sounds like rock n roll.

My bar band ends every gig with Plowed. Such a fun tune.

Back in the 90's, my band opened the show with Plowed every night.


I always loved the vibe of Wax Ecstatic

Around 94 or so we were playing with another band in a horrible winter storm. A 3 nighter. No one was there but we made the most of it. Talking with the band who was awesome by the way the singer asked if we wanted to come back later in the week to open with them and a new band they were friends with and just got signed.
He said he just produced their record with his brother. We had never heard of them so we declined. The next week we saw this band .....Sponge on MTV. Darn.


The singer in this cover band we opened for and we talked to was Andy Patalan. Andy co produced the record and is now a member of Sponge along with the guitarist in that cover band.

I loved Sponge back in the day. Listened to the cassette of "Rotting Pinata" constantly. I think most rock cover bands in the 90s played "Plowed", my band used to open with it.
I gotta admit though, I was not a big fan of "Wax Ecstatic". Feel like they kinda lost their way a little bit on that one.

the ep "For all the Drugs in the World" had some good stuff on it:

That is a great tune. Sponge were a good band.

Love that song.

 

[Magicpad]

Molly (16 candles) is my fav

 

[chrisjw5]

6 or 7 really great songs, and I remember a GuitarWorld interview where both guitarists said that they played Strats exclusively. Pretty heavy sound that defies the stereotype.

I've always liked them a lot.

 

[Guitar Josh]

That is a great tune. Sponge were a good band.

Were? I just saw them last summer!
