Our Take

In their debut album "Rotting Pinata", Sponge brings a refreshing mix of grunge and alternative rock that leaves you craving for more. With frontman Vinnie Dombroski's gritty vocals leading the way, the band delivers a high-energy performance that keeps you on your toes from start to finish.

Tracks like "Plowed" and "Molly (16 Candles Down the Drain)" showcase Sponge's ability to combine catchy melodies with raw, unapologetic lyrics that hit you right in the feels. The band's sound is reminiscent of early 90s alternative rock, with a hint of punk attitude thrown in for good measure.

However, some tracks on the album can feel a bit repetitive, with a few forgettable moments scattered throughout. It's clear that Sponge has room for growth and experimentation in their future releases.

Overall, "Rotting Pinata" is a solid debut effort from Sponge, showcasing their potential to make a mark in the music industry. Fans of grunge and alternative rock will definitely find something to love in this album, even with its occasional missteps. Sponge may not reinvent the wheel with this release, but they certainly prove that they have what it takes to hold their own in a competitive music scene.
