Can anyone wean me off of Sublime?

I am a big fan of Sublime. Their "tightness" is unmatched by few bands. In some of their live recordings, Bradely could change things on the fly and the others would not miss a beat. I have tried to listen to Long Beach Dub All Stars and just can't get into to them. I think I am expecting to hear Sublime but, am always disappointed. You might look in to The Super Suckers. They have the raw but tight sound like Sublime.

Pepper, a Kona Band now living in San Diego.

The Beautiful Girls. They're from Australia. Especially "We're Already Gone" and "Learn Yourself," which both have TONS of groove & are very well recorded. Their latest album, Ziggurats, is harder.

Sublime is a classic,Nuff said. Try SOUP by Blind Melon.

Russell,

I haven't listened much to Sublime, but this thread prompted me to check out the "genre" again. So, I went to Pandora and created a "station" for each of the following: Sublime, Blind Melon, Pepper and The Beautifuls Girls. Then I created a "quick mix" of those 4 artist/stations.

Pandora is a sort of Internet Radio, but you choose the artist, well sort of.... Pandora uses their "music genome project" to select artist that have similar musical styles. So, if you create a station for Sublime, Pandora will play music by Sublime and similar artist. If you create a "Quick mix" it will play songs by all of the artist in the mix, plus artist similar to the ones in the mix.

It's a pretty cool way to hear new music quickly. It does sometimes get kinda repeatative, so adding more artist to your quick mix will typically cut down on the repeatition.

Enjoy,

TIC
