Sublime reminds me of Nirvana. Fun to listen to, but they will never be remembered as great.

well thatz debatable,
Nirvana might not be remembered for being great but they will be remembered for starting the whole Grunge scene which eventually killed hair metal (thank god for that) and brought other awsome grunge bands into spotlight too (AIC, sound garden )

Heh, well, it's true about Nirvana. They did, at least for the public, start a new trend.

I don't know that Sublime did much of anything, other than come out with a few fun songs.

Yes. The "Greatest Hits" album is one of my favorite albums to date...

EDIT: BTW, if you really like Sublime and you don't already know, check out the band Slightly Stoopid, esp. their song, "Runnin' With a Gun." Fun stuff.

Yeah. Not "great", not "horrible". Like most of the rest of the music I've heard.

Wow, the number of people who chose that 3rd option makes me feal old . . .

1 - I never said they were "great".

2 - My point was that a lot of people seemed to like their music, no matter what their musical taste.

Mucho gusto me llamo bradley i'm hornier than ron jeremy
And if you wanna get popped in your knee
Just wipe that look off your bati face
You hate me cause i got what you need, a pretty little daughter that we call mixie
If you wanna get beat physically
It will be over in a minute if you

So she told me to come over and i took that trip
And then she pulled out my mushroom tip
And when it came out it went drip drip drip
I didn't know she had the GI. Joe kung fu grip
And it went uuh and the girl caress me down
:Q

:D

i dont see how anyone could not like sublime. we should probably just kill those kind of people, theyre not good for the world.

About half of the women I've known don't like Date Rape.

I love all their music and get myself into trouble a lot when I'm playing that CD on random and that song comes on. Smoke two joints is a different story though, everyone loves that song.

they are my favorite band, especially 40oz. as a matter of fact i went to the same high school as they did, separated by 6 yrs i believe.

one of my current roomates graduated with them and has an old demo tape of them w/ like 3 songs (he's a musician also). unfortunetely they sound too much like the final version for me to record to the computer
