Wax Ecstatic is the second studio album by American rock band Sponge, released in 1996. The album features a blend of alternative rock and post-grunge sounds, characterized by heavy guitar riffs and melodic hooks. It includes notable tracks like 'Wax Ecstatic (To Sell Angelina)' and 'Molly (16 Candles Down the Drain)'. The album's lyrical content often explores themes of love, loss, and introspection, contributing to its appeal in the alternative rock scene of the mid-1990s. Although it did not achieve the commercial success of its predecessor, it has since gained a cult following and is considered a defining work of the era.
