The record stands as a testament to Silverchair's initial post-grunge musical style, and the vast, striking difference between the rock music of Frogstomp and the orchestral fusion experimentalism of later works such as 2002's Diorama divides fanbases exponentially. However Frogstomp, both as a lone work and in the context of Silverchair's career, remains to be one of Australia's most nationally successful albums, and arguably the most popular grunge album from an Australian group. Post-grunge is a subgenre of American alternative rock that emerged in the mid-1990s as an offshoot of the Seattle grunge movement. ...

Due to the album's status as a monument to their grunge-oriented teenage years, the band choose to mostly ignore this album during their new live set lists in favor of the more original and stylistically diverse music Daniel Johns has written later in his career.
