Summary: <br> <p style="text-align: center; margin: 15px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; line-height: 21px; vertical-align: baseline;"><font size="2">We’re kicking off a new roundtable series revisiting the dreaded sophomore slumps of successful bands from the 1990s. The first album we’re checking out is the 1996 album Wax Ecstatic by <a href="http://www.spongetheband.com/" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px .15em; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; text-decoration: none; background-position: 0px 1.15em; background-repeat: repeat-x;">Sponge</a> with special guests <a href="https://twitter.com/chipmidnight" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px .15em; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; text-decoration: none; background-position: 0px 1.15em; background-repeat: repeat-x;">Chip Midnight</a> of <a href="http://www.kidsinterviewbands.com/" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px .15em; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; text-decoration: none; background-position: 0px 1.15em; background-repeat: repeat-x;">KidsInterviewBands.com</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/Rocket_Fuel" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px .15em; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; text-decoration: none; background-position: 0px 1.15em; background-repeat: repeat-x;">Jeff Takacs</a> of <a href="http://www.rocketfuelpodcast.com/" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px .15em; border: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; text-decoration: none; background-position: 0px 1.15em; background-repeat: repeat-x;">Rocketfuel Podcast</a>. With two hit singles and a gold record on their debut Rotting Pinata, their second album took a number of unexpected twists that may have thrown critics and listeners for a loop, but the lack of an killer chorus or hook like on the first record may have doomed them as well. We try to figure out whether or not this sophomore slump is worth redeeming.</font></p><br> <p style="text-align: center; margin: 15px 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; line-height: 21px; vertical-align: baseline;"><font size="2">Songs in this Episode:</font></p><font size="2"></font><br> <div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Intro - Wax Ecstatic (to sell Angelina) from Wax Ecstatic</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><br> <div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">14:42 - Molly (16 Candles) from Rotting Pinata</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><br> <div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">23:28 - I Am Anastacia from Wax Ecstatic</span></div><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;"></span><br> <div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit;">Outro - My Baby Said from Wax Ecstatic</span></div>
