This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
After nearly becoming the next big thing with ’95’s Rotting Piñata, these Detroit mod-rockers seemed to lose their steam.
They still haven’t found it — in fact, for most of their third album New Pop Sunday, they also seem to have lost their amplifiers. Pop is the operative word here. Most of these 12 tracks abandon any pretense of heaviness and opt for mid-tempo wimp-rockers with ringing guitars and drearily earnest lyrics. By the time they find the Marshalls and rock out for the the final few tunes, it’s too little too late. Sponge are all wet — and ready to be hung out to dry.
