CD Reviews

Oh Yeah!
jeff aaron | Charlotte, NC | 03/14/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The Spongetones have been making wonderful British Invasion music for almost 20 years. Those of us fortunate enough to live near their base of Charlotte, NC have heard these songs live. Of their five releases, "Oh Yeah!" captures the spirit and essence of both the first generation of the British Invasion (Beatles, DC5, Hollies, Searchers, Zombies) and the second generation (Badfinger, The Wackers, The Flame). "Are You Gonna, Do You Need to Love Me" is the great single that should have been number one, if only recorded and released back then. Check out www.spongetone.com (note singular)for more info. This is an unpaid testimonial."
Beatles to the max!

"This is one of my favorites! Their song writing skills gel on this baby. If your a beatle fan, then this is a must. Great work Jamie Hoover!!!"
Probably their best..

"I haven't heard all their albums, but I think it's a fair guess this album is likely their best.



Usually, I'm a bit wary of any artist that tries to copy the Fab Four to a tee. The Spongetones are an exception. At least, they are a tad more genuine than yer run of the mill, low-rent, power pop, Beatles clone.



The vox are a little like Macca's and music is early day Beatles- but no so much that they are copy cats.



The bottomline, Beatles references aside, the songwriting is fairly top notch and catchy. Most songs are under 3 minutes; only a couple are over 3 minutes (and one of those is an 'epic' 4 and a half minutes in length).



Good stuff."
