The Spent Poets' self-titled debut album, released in May 1992, is a critically acclaimed work that blends neo-psychedelia with literary and pop-culture references. While commercially unsuccessful, it remains a cult favorite. The album features tracks like "Mr. Einstein," "Dogtown" (their only music video), and "Walt Whitman's Beard."
While sales figures are not readily available, the album's ornate and lush sound clashed with the grunge scene dominating the early 1990s. Though praised by critics, the band's lack of mainstream success led to their disbandment in 1993 after an unreleased follow-up album.
