Stankonia is the smell of Ga in the summertime. fresh mowed lawns. BBQs and fireflys.

so, it is indeed ok. not the best.

yeah, sure. RHCP was a better singles band than the other. i only remember that one Sublime hit and the one about date rape and the one where mr sublime gives a shout out to the butthole surfers. i was not impressed.

SuchFriendsAreDangerous 04.14.2014 09:22 PM

biased by local status but Sublime isn't that bad at all! RHCP had solid moments, and I agree, was a 'singles' band but they had some good ones, if you combine all their best singles you probably get at least one LP worth of material to be considered an all-time kind of contender..

foreverasskiss 04.14.2014 09:27 PM

i slot Sublime in the same category as third eye blind and what was that band that had the standing on the sun song?....whatever, 90's crap for Green Day fans to chill to.


the RHCP had some fantastical singles.

now Pavement? that was a 90's band. everything else can fuck a boney dry chick.

That is disgusting. trust me, Sublime was NOT green day neither 311.. they were a drunk punk band that loved reggae but the real secret is they were deadheads. They weren't some corporate radio band, they became that after Bradley died..

Now again, as a form drunk punk who loves reggae and whose real secret is that I am a deadhead I might be a bit biased but at the least I do not and never have listened to Green Day..

foreverasskiss 04.14.2014 11:30 PM

dude..

..im not saying you listen to green day. just that Subliminal guy loved heroin more that reggae. 311 are another garbage band from the bowels 90's.

While that isn't exactly fair it is more or less true..

This is also true, but it has less to do with Sublime than you might think..

trying to rep Such because of much message board confusion between me and you.
wouldn't it be funny Such, if me and you just repped each other all day and dead battery over intellectualized about the power of nuclear fission and the others just went on about their daily business? ignoring all trolls, going to sleep at night.

SonicBebs 04.15.2014 03:01 AM

British Sea Power are really very good

Rob Instigator 04.16.2014 08:53 AM

sublime is as far into "reggae" as many white people got, and that is a sad sad shame.

evollove 04.16.2014 12:34 PM

The first Barenaked Ladies album GORDON is a pop masterpiece.

While that is true, you shouldn't hold that against Sublime because those dudes were MAD into reggae yo.. so.. at least they tried?

Rob Instigator 04.16.2014 02:57 PM

truth.

Slint's Spiderland is an overly pretentious, mediocre and uninspired record.

Nefeli 04.20.2014 12:03 PM

im sorry, but After the Rain is, if not The, one of the best bands alive.

d.sound 01.26.2021 11:02 AM

Bluegrass is just acoustic speed metal.

Green Day were a much better band than people admit and their reputation only suffers because of all the shitty Warped Tour-core that they opened the doors for.

Screeching Weasel, NOFX, the Descendents and many others wish me to tell you to burn all your Green Day shit because it is SHIT

Savage Clone 02.04.2021 03:13 PM

They’re the Typhoid Marys of that epidemic .

choc e-Claire 02.05.2021 06:35 AM

^^

Descendents a very fair call, Screeching Weasel as well, but you cannot tell me that you'd rather listen to NOFX.

*I've bought 4 of their albums in the hopes they would capture the live experience but they haven't at all, I've seen them about a ten or twelve times and try to catch them each time they tour because the live shows are phenomenal.

Unpopular opinion: some Coldplay songs are pretty decent.

However, they are such horrible performers it's impossible to care.

_tunic_ 05.30.2021 03:23 AM

Lou Reed would have been a much better artist if he would have worn the same yellow speedo as Dries Roelvink
