Spongehead
Spongehead were an American noise rock band formed in Brooklyn, New York, formed in 1985. The band was formed by brothers David and Doug Henderson and drummer Mark Kirby. Their fusion of jazz, blues and funk music was compared to Pere Ubu and Barkmarket, whose bandleader, Dave Sardy has worked with Spongehead on most of their albums. History Spongehead formed in Brooklyn in 1985, featuring Dave Henderson on saxophone, Doug Henderson on vocals and guitar, and Mark Kirby on drums. With Kramer producing, the band released their 1988 debut ''Potted Meat Spread'' on Shimmy Disc. The band began to tighten musically and they released '' Legitimate Beef'' in 1991. Influenced by past collaborations with Eugene Chadbourne, the lyrics embraced a dadaic viewpoint on politics. 1993's Curb Your Dogma was produced by Dave Sardy of Barkmarket and showcased a maturation in the band's sound.

Although they are not representative of the entire genre, they helped popularize noise rock among alternative rock audiences by incorporating melodies into their droning textures of sound, which set a template that numerous other groups followed. Other early noise rock bands were Big Black and Swans. Characteristics Noise rock fuses rock to noise, usually with recognizable "rock" instrumentation, but with greater use of distortion and electronic effects, varying degrees of atonality, ...
