[edit] ska=punk?
Sublime is constantly classified as a ska-punk band but I get the impression that this is because Southern California was chockfull of such bands at the time. If forced to define Sublime, they are much closer to reggae - the ubiquitous one drop drum beat, the rhythm strokes on the 2 and the 4, the deep basslines, etc. Would anyone object if I changed the label? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stylee (talk • contribs) 03:35, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] skankable?
In the section entitled "Legacy," Sublime's music is described as "skankable." Clever and evocative though it may be, I am not sure I know exactly what the word means. Not having even appeared yet on Urban Dictionary, this word may be too obscure for Wikipedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.74.222.145 (talk) 04:14, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Link to Badfish (band)
- Where could we put this? It has a "no links to this article" tag, and it's the best-known Sublime tribute band in existance. TheDavesr 15:44, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sublime album
Shouldn't an album that is certified 5x multi-platinum (5x2 million) be called a 'Diamond' album (10 million)?? Msjayhawk (talk) 02:47, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Tried to fix
Sorry, I tried to fix this paragraph, but it was just too poorly written (spelling mistakes, an unprofessional writing style, and information that isn't exactly important imo) so I deleted it:
"Their eclectic style of...everything which changes from one moment of melodic grooves to an eruption of distorted madness. Some beleive the bands style can be best perceived through the song Get Out! remixed on their posthemus release of Second Hand Smoke (originally on the first releases of 40 oz. to Freedom."
[edit] pictures.
are needed. for shame. Lockeownzj00 21:58, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[edit] This is the best I can do:
Some believe the band's style can be best perceived through the song Get Out!, which was remixed on their postumous release of Second Hand Smoke. Get Out! was originally going to be on 40 oz. to Freedom, but when MCA picked there back cd's up for reissue it was cut due to a Led Zepplein sample. That sample is not in the remix.
[edit] robbin' the hood was a major label release?
hmm, i'm pretty sure that it was only reissued by MCA and originally released on Skunk. hmm, allmusic.com seems to back me up on that.
SUBLIME IS AWESOME!!!
[edit] Headline text
Many have tryed to copy SUBLIME, but no one can capture the feeling
...listen to Pepper if you want a great band that has similar sound to Sublime
Pepper is a decent band, but comes no where near the variety of musical styles Sublime incorporated.
[edit] Hip Hop
I've added Hip-Hop to their list of genres, since they were influenced a lot by it and this shows alot in many of their songs. - User:Tricklin
[edit] no woman no cry
why arent there details on the sublime cover of no woman no cry?
that was actually by a band called Murder One. it's commonly mislisted online.
[edit] why is "badfish" redirected to "sublime"?
?
[edit] Why "Sublime and the College Crowd"?
Is it just me or is the section entitled "Sublime and the College Crowd" rather asinine? I believe someone should remove it, but I won't do it unilaterally. TuckerResearch 17:02, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Smoke Two Joints
"Smoke Two Joints" should not be under the section of songs by Sublime that were covered by other artists, since it is originally a Bob Marley song, as indicated by the list of songs which Sublime covered (confusing enough for you?). Removed. BTW, the two "songs covered" sections seen kinda pointless and confusing too me. Do they really warrant inclusion?
It was a Toyes song.
[edit] Could someone please identify the style
Could someone identify the style of singing that the guy does at the beginning of Caress Me Down? The word I saw in one of the articles was "gruff vocals" but I figure there must be a more precise term. Thanks! Avast matey! 05:29, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

- That could be called 'dancehall'.
[edit] Possible Copyvio Issues
It looks like the second and third paragraphs of the History section are almost verbatim copies from the AllMusicGuide page for Sublime. I'll blank them for now and let people more knowledgeable with the page address as they see fit.Cool moe dee 345 14:34, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Okay - scratch that. The section just looks ridiculous if I blank it, so I'll leave it this way for the time being with the justification that having something that makes even a little bit of sense is a virtue worth waiting for somebody to fix the issues. I'll check back in a couple of days to see if the problems have been resolved.Cool moe dee 345 14:36, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
Well, it's been a while and there's been no movement by anybody more knowledgeable about the group, so I went ahead and just stripped out the worst of the material (word for word copy from AMG, and you can clearly see the copyright notice at the bottom of the screen if you visit the site, even if it wasn't plagarism). If somebody wants to rewrite what I removed and reference AMG, I expect that would be fine. The page in question, assuming that this link works, is at the AllMusicGuide Website on the band.Cool moe dee 345 13:08, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Long Beach Dub Allstars
Didn't LBDA break up a coupl of years ago?
[edit] Members
I'm pretty sure that a dog shouldnt be included in the members list.
Well... The first sound on the first track of their first album is donated by Lou...
don't be a douche, the band considered the dog an honorary member and its in all of their videos and sometimes barks in their songs, just let it go —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.97.185.35 (talk) 02:06, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
