Sponge – Planet Girls (The Lost 1999 Album) RSD 2024

After releasing back-to-back gold albums Rotting Pinata and Wax Ecstatic, Sponge saw a label change during the recording of their third release. During initial recording of the album legendary producer Kevin Shirley (Journey, Aerosmith, The Black Crowes) was brought in to create a an album more pop-rock in nature, a departure from the grittier sound of their first two albums. The album was eventually shelved and never released, until now.
