Hits like "Plowed" and "Molly (16 Candles)" fueled massive airplay on radio stations from coast to coast and were in heavy rotation on MTV.

Sponge's follow up CD, the critically lauded 'Wax Ecstatic,' includes the hit songs "Wax Ecstatic" and "Have You Seen Mary?' Now touring in support of their newest CD 'Galore Galore,' Sponge continues to stand out as one of rock's most charismatic live acts. Sponge front man Vinnie Dombroski's powerful voice, heart-on-his- sleeve lyrics and full throttle stage presence captivates any audience he steps in front of. 'Galore Galore' features 10 blistering rock and roll tracks, and finds Sponge triumphantly treading new ground with the Rolling Stone esque 'I Did It Without the Drugs,' while tracks like 'I Wanna Lose' and 'Wasted' mine the addictive dark pop the band first unleashed on 'Rotting Pinata.'
