Spongebath Records releases volume 2 of their sampler series, allowing you to test out the various bubble baths available without forcing yourself into a potentially unpleasant bathing experience with any one particular band. Some of the bands on this sampler include The C-60s, with their extremely catchy college rock infused number, "Remote Control," that will wash away any preconceptions that pop is dead. Likewise, The Features' "Anti-Gravity Class of '93" soaks in a late 60's garage-y sound similar to a Joe Meek-produced early R.E.M.. For those into more dangerous temperatures, Count Bass-D scrubs up with some steamy hip-hop, almost like sharing the back brush with KRS-1. As with most samplers, the object here is for band experimentation -- take a chance and listen to some bands you probably haven't heard of, and perhaps you'll realize that Spongebath Records has figuratively sopped up some of tomorrow's musical future today.
