SUBLIME!!!!

[crazyfool405]

Ok guys now for all of you who ARE fans of sublime, even though brad nowell passed away in 1996, bud and eric found a new guitarist to play with. He freaking good to. his name is ROME, they played a show in reno last night, and o my suprise sound very very good and similar. now supposedly the name will stay as sublime however, i personally think it should change.

While I am sure they would sound good, they should drop the name. Sublime without Brad is like the Misfits without Glenn Danzig, or the DKs without Jello Biafra (my two favorite bands, both who attempted comebacks w/a different singer)...

let sublime r.i.p.

 

[crazyfool405]

I agree. They should just change the name. And play good music.

 

[cheloz28]

Yup, they should change the name. If you like sublime you should check out slightly stoopid as they have a very similar sound.

Agreed they should not use the name. As stated above about the Misfits and the DK's, it's just not really Sublime w/o Brad. Like the Doors w/ no Morrison, and we certainly don't want them to become like Lynyrd Skynyrd (RIP Ronnie).

I definetely dig Slightly stoopid and Pepper. Haven't heard Red Light Runners. Will definetely check them out!

I'm really torn...

On one hand I think it's wrong to call it something it's not as Brad was too central to the song writing and overall sound. I also have the same issues with the Misfits and DKs - it was never as good.

Then again, I feel bad for Bud and Eric.

There are many bands that are "Sublime Cover/Tribute Bands" that do so well, they can play professionally as musicians. Meaning they make a very comfortable living touring and playing covers. It seems wrong that two of the actual members of Sublime, can't at least pay their bills from the success that their OWN band actually had, rather than some third party.

I say good luck...

Slightly Stoopid is in my town this weekend but I'll be out at the Arnold.
I hope "Sublime" tours around a bit, I would love to see them no matter what name they go with. I am a Sublime fanatic so this is all pretty exciting news for me.

Bradley was so talented and has such great music-making abilities. But by keeping the name, they also keep the well-deserved recognition, so I see why they would want to do that. It worked out well for Faith No More. BTW, Sublime's (W/Brad) cover of the Hong Kong Phooey theme is RAD to the power of SICK!
