👴 Old Composer Reactions 🤘
This album is Sublime at their very best: groovy, punky, funny, quotable, every facet of their signature sound is present on 40 oz to freedom! It's the only chance you have to feel good even though you feel bad! And if ya didn't know, now ya know... And you know because of KRS-One! 😎👌
I knew Sublime BEFORE I went to a music festival, but I became a true fan AFTER I somehow made it HOME from my first music festival, this was back in early 2000’s. Then I was full “Robbin’ tha Hood”.
I got so burnt out on Sublime from them being on play almost non stop in my early 20s, that i really haven't listened to them since. Now in my late 30s i went back and listened to the whole self titled album again, and holy crap i forgot how good it was.
I did the same, I think I heard them every day from about 95-2005. Oddly enough I listened this morning and I had forgotten how bitchin the rhythm section were
40oz is a great release
Right? We wore out this CD out on some speakers we pumped out the window toward the mini ramp, fun box & rails we built so we had some music while skating. Between that & hearing it at friends' houses I got burnt out on it. But coming back to it is a nice listen & something to enjoy again.
Same, from about 12-23 I listened to them religiously, took a break, found different music, now at 34 I find myself back to Sublime, but now I'm appreciating different songs now, ones I knew before, but didn't think twice about. I really have forgotten how much I love this band.
I highly suggest their rarities album, Everything Under the Sun. A lot of great love performances and demos
Finally someone reacts to a non radio sublime song, props my man!
Sublime was really big on listening to a subgenre of Jamaican Reggae known as Dub which uses tons of phase shifting sounds, echoes that seem to go on for centeries, tons of reverb and almost always bringing the reggae down to the bass and drums and building up. Dub is ear candy for those into experimental music and most of all Dub is the true 1st form of Electronic music, RUclips has tons of documentary on the subgenre.
Man this is a deep cut sublime track. Glad you're covering this! Hopefully you get to cover A day to remembers new track Miracle.
Seriously deep cut, one of my favorites!!
Love Sublime! You went straight for their trippiest song. Please do more of them!
Pre- What Separates Me From You is the only good ADTR
I think this is arguably one of their best songs
Weird, I never think of this as a deep cut of theirs at all. It’s one of the first songs I think of when they get mentioned 🤷♂️ probably because I listened to 40 oz for months on end I giess
If you’re enjoying Sublime, give Pepper a try. Hawaiian band picking up that Sublime torch and running with it, they’re a fantastic fun live band too.
Belter of a tune "Dont push"
Whole album is fire. Im not a huge reggae fan, but i do love Sublime
Eric Wilson is one of my favorite bass players ever. Was privileged enough to see him rock out before and he blew me away. I hope you journey the rabbit hole of sublime!
As a composer you should get into reggae dub as well. Lee Scratch Perry, King Tubby, Scientist, Mad Professor are a few top producers . Peace.
What this guy said! You can also go on another microgenre rabbithole with dub itself
In reggae, bass plays melody and guitar plays rhythm.
As a surfer you gotta check out Sublime's Paddle Out.
Also to expand Scientist is a great Dub style reggae artist.
Paddle Out is awesome
Scientist's "Wins the World Cup" and "Rids The World Of The Evil Curse Of The Vampires" are immense albums. Have them both on vinyl 🤘🤘
Sublimes my all time favorite band. I know almost every word to every song. I actually have a tattoo of the 40 oz sun on my arm. They got me through tough times in highschool including the death of my father. They will always have a special place in my heart.
This album came out thirty years ago and I still can't get enough. I feel Sublime represents my generation better than most music that came out at the time.
The production of this album wasn't perfect, but the music definitely makes up for it.
Geebz, keep in mind Sublime is kind of a mix of Reggae, Punk Rock and Rap. "Long Beach Dub Style"
There's also a cover of Grateful Dead's Scarlet Begonias on this album that is worth looking into.
My personal fav song on the album I know it wasn't theirs but It's so amazing
thats a good one.
in what way would you say the production wasnt perfect? just wondering, i really like the sound of the album and dont see how it could have been better
@@jamieatcheson7710 the mixing is all over the place but it has a raw feel which is why it's so timeless. Acdc has that rawness that prob came from Bradley which is why the mixing was high caliber on the self titled album. Just my 2 cents
@@therealnynetynyne360 ahh fair enough, i agree that it has a raw feel, i guess i would agree that it isnt perfect but thats also what makes it so good
Wow - so cool you did Sublime!! One of the endless epic bands from th amazing musical decade of the 90's. It is sort of a sub genre of reggae/ska/hip hop/alt rock - a band called 311 occupies a similar space and some other lesser known but awesome groups - but no ne did it like Sublime. He was a mammoth talent who OD'd just before their first massive hit came out - tragic. But they are SUPER influential - my mid life band - we lean into several Sublime songs and emulate elements of their style. If you want to make your life beautiful just get into Bob Marley on your own time - he is a supernatural force of music. For a great classic reggae band that won't get blocked to do on your channel check out The Abysinians.
wow! just happened to wear my 40oz to freedom shirt today, this is crazy. one of my favorites on the album! so many moving parts and always a blast to hear. great reaction!
My walls may be coated in Metal & Videogame posters, but there's always been a spot for my 40oz vinyl of 40oz to Freedom. Truly something special of a band.
I love Sublime, back when I was taking bong rips every day they were my go-to for stoner jams🤣
the bass walks the song. like a good walk on the beach for you.
Sublime best songs IMO:
Seed, Work that we Do, Had a DAT, Poolshark, All You Need, Waiting for my Ruca, Let's Go Get Stoned, Right Back, Perfect World, Foreman Freestyle, Boss D.J. & so many others!
Reggae is awesome. Dive in!!
Man Sublime had such a nice vibe, Bradley really was a one of a kind
As for suggestions I'd start with the closest thing to Marley which is Peter Tosh, one of the biggest influences in the Wailers alongside Bob, I'd say "Bush Doctor", "Johnny B. Goode" and "Coming in Hot" are some of his best work.
Other great artists from the genre that come to mind are Rebelution, as well as Burning Spear and Groundation.
My picks from them would be "Sky is the Limit", "Fittest of the Fittest" and "Warrior Blues", respectively. All amazing tracks which encapsulate the best aspects of this amazing musical movement.
Stay fresh Geebz! AWWWWRIIIIGHT 🤙🤙
Stick Figure, Pepper, Slightly Stoopid, Dirty Heads, Tropidelic...
Hell yes! Welcome to funky reggae ska punk hip hop dub baby! Bass for days, and soul for years ✌️❤️🍾
This song reminds me of my dad like no other. That man loved his Sublime and this was his fucking jam 🥲 I miss that guy
I love Sublime! What a great pick!! Hope you check out more from them. They have a very unique sound to this day. To try:
Bad Fish
Date Rape
Santeria
What I Got
Doin Time
Smoke Two Joints
Wrong Way
Caress Me Down
- All AWESOME songs!
I BET you've heard 1 or 2! Like Santeria! Love your channel!👍
Been my favorite Sublime song for over 20 years, thanks for doing this one!!!
Same
I highly recommend the Congos- Fisherman. It's easily one of the best Black Ark songs ever produced by Lee "Scratch" Perry.
Thank you from the depths of my heart. Sublime is such a groove. This is music you have to let the whole album just roll. It all just flows along so nice.
They cover Grateful Dead’s Scarlet Begonias on that 40oz’s album. That’s a fun song, the title track is great, you can’t go wrong with that album. More more more lol!!!
I love watching your videos after I get out of a long day of work. Your personality and excitedness about music always makes me happy, haha!
in europe they were real underground been listening to them since 95.
The bands that were influenced by Sublime are excellent too.
The Expendables, Pepper(formed in Hawaii I believe), Slightly Stoopid, Passafire, Tribal Seeds
yessss. nailed it with the comments about the bass. definitely very bass heavy. sublime also has roots in punk, which is also bass heavy.
sublime is great.. so groovy and happy go lucky.. great to smoke a bowl to.. lots of teenaged memories associated with sublime, just hanging out with my besties, grooving along. good times. glad to see you covering them.. nice little shift from what you often do. :)
Sublime is THE ONLY 3rd wave of Reggae that actually represents Reggae, they actually listened to and represented true reggae influences and they really are the only band that doesn't seem like a pseudo mockery of what reggae comes from and means. Bradley truly understood the reggae feel and riddims. Not to mention the genius blend of ska, dub, and punk. Nothing from that time even gets close to as ingenious.
One of my favorite sublime tunes, great pick for the decomposing:) As a bass guy you can’t go wrong with any song Eric plays on!
Thank you Geebz
Ayyyyy Geebz! YOu landed on a good vibe track right here...... Sublime was my soundtrack to many a summers. Windows down, bass bumpin!!
Their sound on this record is straight up old school dancehall reggae...I mean, even many of the song and lines are call backs or actual covers. I love this band, got to see them many many years ago...round 94'. The reason nobody can duplicate them is because the inspiration is totally different.
Older reggae has that very 50s pop music sounding vocals with the signature upstroke and all that...you may dig it. You should check out some skinhead reggae compilations here on yt, you wont be disappointed.
Inka Inka- Tension. San Jose bay area reggae music from the 90's. One of my all time favorites.
Another part of the rabbit hole to go down: rocksteady. Look up the video of Bob Marley describing the differences between ska, rocksteady, and reggae. Rocksteady is a really interesting tweener space between ska and reggae.
Their cover of “Smoke Two Joints” by the toys is a master class. And the track “40 oz to Freedom” is legit. “Saw Red”, “Pawn Shop” “What I Got” and many more. I named my acoustic guitar “MF Riot”. And “D.J.’s” is absolutely fantastic!
I love Sublime 👍👍
My favorite song is Caress Me Down (FYI, it’s very Explicit)
Thanks for the reaction, bub! 👍👍
@Josh R this comment just made my day
No two Sublime songs are alike. He had so many influences, reggae being his main love. As much as he loved reggae, his first love was being a DJ. That's why you will hear a lot of different things mixed into his songs, and songs inspired by many different styles. He even refers to himself as the "Boss DJ" in at least one of his songs that I can remember.
Checking these guys out tomorrow night
Awwwright!!🤙
Excellent choice for starting with sublime.
I am more partial to dance hall reggae, but dub stuff is super cool as well.
Quick edit to recommend easy star all stars. They covered the entirety of dark side of the moon, titled dub side of the moon. Excellent stuff
Nice 'slow burn' gag. The Marley estate will nail you for sure.
I know how much you love bass tone. Simon Gallup, from the Cure always has a great bass tone and plays beautifully. I will look for specific songs, but it's all great.
Thanks again, Geebz. Keep it up!
The Wailers, Catch a Fire and Burnin' in particular, are stellar. 10 Ft. Ganja Plant as well. Love the channel man 🤙
A deep dive into ska & reggae would be excellent! Starting with the roots, the Wailers, the Skatalites, Lee Perry and the Upsetters, Junior Murvin, Prince Buster, the Heptones, Toots and the Maytals, Burning Spear, Jackie Mittoo, Desmond Dekker, Horace Andy, Gregory Isaacs, Sly & Robbie, the Aggrovators...
This entire albums is ah-mazing! Sublime's incorporation of reggae samples and the rocking guitar is genius and an inspiration to many reggae bands that came after them 💚💚💚
Just happens to be that my favorite genres are metal and reggae. Sort of a yin and yang
There's a song on this album where sublime does a brief reference to toots and the maytals, 54-46 Was My Number.
That's a good place to check out.
Hell yeah, my favorite Sublime song out of their entire catalog, and I’ve gone deep. Everyone in that band seemed so naturally creative and talented at writing music. They’re worth their own rabbit hole because they touch on many different genres, although reggae, punk, hip hop and blues are at their core. But every song is made with pure, unfiltered musical passion, and you can hear it.
As far as other reggae goes, as much as I love Sublime, they’re born and raised in the US, so it’s not quite as authentic as Jamaican-born artists, but Bradley really loved that music, so he tried to make it as genuine as possible. But I’d check out some native artists, too. I’m not real familiar with many reggae artists, but Peter Tosh is a classic.
Hey Geebz! Just thought that as a Jamaican musician and sublime fan I'd leave a comment lol. So, Sublime is definitely a ska/reggae punk band that came out of Long Beach in the 80s/90s. One of the things that sets their Reggae apart from other kinds is that they incorporate some hip hop elements (the drum groove and Bradley's rapping/singing) and some punk (sometimes using overdriven guitar and playing straight up hardcore punk).
One thing that defines Jamaican Reggae (Roots, Dub in particular) is that fundamental drum groove called the One Drop where both the kick and snare hit on the three of a beat instead of the kick on the one and snare on the three as is the case with most American music. A few notable examples of this being Bob Marley's Three Little Birds, Waiting in Vain and the aptly titled One Drop. As you already know the Bass is also an important of reggae as it sometimes carries the main melody and is the foundation of the whole tune.
If you're getting into reggae I definitely recommend you check out Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Dennis Brown, Koffee , Chronixx (I'm purposely leaving TONS out lol). Anyways, just want to say I enjoy watching your metal reactions but I just thought I'd take a change share some of my culture with you, Cheers!
Respect
Aston Barrett said “the bass is the spine of reggae”.
There are plenty of great sublime songs. This one has been #1 since day 1
This one brought me back 20 years. It starts with Ska (shush Jazz). Circa 2002, some older than me dude I was bartending with says, "Oh you like Ska but not Reggae? It's the same thing". I would highly recommend seeing/hearing The Slackers live if they come your way! Make sure the joint is dirty. 1-2
Never really got into reggae and like you I knew the big artists but gradually grew into it and the roots / dub scene, really found a love for it when I discovered the different sounds and artists like john holt and what he was doing and then where Damian jr gong Marley took it, and some oddball stuff like paddy Rasta cover of molly malone, hell even what South America did with reggaeton,
Think you have to be in a certain mood set to appreciate it and only in moderation like most things
I never would have thought that you would ever touch on Sublime, but here we go
In my top 10 albums of all time! If I lived in Hawaii, I would listen to Sublime every single day eating edibles and rollerblading around! 💯
Your a legend mate. Keep the good tunes flowing
Geebz! A rabbit hole indeed.. Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare were the rhythm team superhero’s of reggae. I remember reading they played drums and bass respectively on something like 400,000 songs. No joke!
Early reggae group recommendations:
Gregory Isaacs, Eek a mouse, Barrington Levy, Burning spear, Dennis Brown, prince jammy, scientist, Lee scratch Perry, Black Uhuru, yellow man, Johnny Osbourne, John Holt
Modern bands: John browns body, 10 foot ganja plant, black seeds, fat freddys drop, skindred
Enjoy brother
Would love to see a long form Sublime reaction at some point. Some of my personal recommendations to check out:
we're only gonna die for our arrogance, new thrash, chica me tipo, hope, same in the end
One of my favorites. Def a deep cut no one know lol except for hard fans
I have a vinyl copy of 40 Oz to Freedom and if you thought this sounded cool digitally, you’d be blown away with the physical album
You got to check out the dub of the 70s and 80s. Scientist, King Tubby, Augustus Pablo, Prince Far I, The Upsetters. That would be great to see you hear some of your first dub reggae.
So glad you finally did sublime.. been a long time fan.. please do more that's not one of there best songs
I love the "jah don't pay the bills" version of this song
Note that the riddim is downstrokes. Upstrokes are more of a funk thing.
Steel Pulse for band oriented reggae. “Blues Dance Raid” and “Chant a Psalm a day” are absolute gems.
Nice, love some sublime. dont remember this track at all tho.
The more popular version that got radio time was a remix version
Just found it its called the "shs" version
Still here...
I grew up listening to Sublime and this album (40 oz To Freedom) is probably my favorite of their albums. This is such an odd and interesting way to start delving into Reggae music on your channel but I'm not complaining! Honestly Sublime was as much a punk, rock, thrash and ska band as they were a Reggae band... They even have a heavy hip-hop influence, and also entire songs in Brad's broken version of Spanish... The singer/guitarist Bradley Nowell was taken far to soon and never got to experience his own band's success. It's a shame and a really sad story...
Geebz I don't know who suggested this band and song to you as a first entry into the world of Reggae music or Sublime in general but thanks to you and them both! I was stoked it wasn't 'What I Got' or 'Santeria' (I love both those songs btw) but you just wouldn't get a fair representation of Reggae music... I am going to say something pretty controversial (as a lifelong Sublime fan) but even though they loved Reggae music they are about as 'authentic' reggae musicians as UB40 was... While I thoroughly agree you should start with the legend himself Bob Marley, I also understand how easy it might be to get copyrighted on those videos. Peter Tosh and Jimmy Cliff are fantastic, as well as Bob's sons Damien and Ziggy. Toots and the Maytals, Desmond Decker, The Melodians, Johnny Nash (yes I spelled that correctly) are all great reggae groups that aren't Bob. A few non-Marley song suggestions: Steppin' Razor or Pressure Drop. I also suggest checking out the movies "Rockers" and "The Harder They Come" (the soundtrack is amazing) if you are interested in learning more about reggae music/culture.
But Sublime is still one of my favorite bands of all time, and the best way to listen to Sublime is to pick any album, light up a joint, start from the beginning and press play. You'll be glad you did...
The upside to Sublime not being true reggae is that it's an easy gateway for people who like rock, punk or even hip hop to have the seeds of reggae planted in their brains, so they can eventually follow the rabbit hole to the greats and true creative forces of authentic reggae. If it can get your brain to understand and appreciate the building blocks Sublime provided, it's far easier to get into it when it doesn't have those other added elements that drew in fans from those other genres in the first place. And also, those songs on 40oz slap, no matter what genre you wanna lump them into. A good song is a good song, and Sublime's songs aging so much better than their peers/competition in the era and scene they came out of, is absolute proof of their superiority as songwriters and musicians. 🤙✌️👌☝️👍🖖🤘✊
Great vid. I would love to hear you listen to this whole record.
In terms of Modern Reggae, I'm sure you've heard of Maoli who is based in Hawaii. He is more a fusion of Reggae/Country but i really love his stuff. It's been my favorite Genre for more than half my life
I always liked "What I Got" and "Santeria". Reminds me of good times!
You might like this then: ruclips.net/video/GL9E5rxcsgM/видео.html
Strange I have the bell on but don't get notified anymore..why??? Damn I have a few videos Tonto back on just to say....... WELCOME HOME BY HELLYEAH!!! lol love ya brotha
Sublime, Slightly Stoopid & Pepper - Those were the days. All worth checking out (esp the Slightly Stoopid "Live and Direct" album and Pepper's "Kona Town" LP).
My brother got me into all of them 20 odd years ago. Its difficult to listen to them again without major melancholy from myself as he passed away end of last year.
Funny how certain songs remind you of strong emotions/memories.
5 seconds in that bass drops and you start groovin, that’s what sublime is all about man!! 🤙🤙. “Go and raid the sound, tell the people the news; tell them reggae music is in the loose!!!”
i realized i've never actually listened to this album. the only one i know is their 1996 record. cool track
40 oz. Is much better
Reggae suggestions-
The Heptones
The Congos
Junior Murvin
Lee Perry
An adventurous reggae curveball, sweet band live too, is Skindred. Check out "Nobody", "Babylon" or "Trouble".
Yes, Skindred would be so great.
You can't really define sublime as reggae. Some songs are and some songs aren't. They just made what they liked and sampled the shit out of alot of songs.
Sup Geebz! I remember Sublime from a few video games growing up as a kid. That's all I know
Eric Wilson (bass player) is one of the greats and he is a big influence on why I picked up a bass in the first place, can't wait to see more sublime....there's sooo many great songs
Oh man, surprising first song for Sublime. They blended and owned their influences so well.
Check out the band Slightly Stoopid. Or
From Hawaii - Iration
U should give ‘Pepper’ a listen. They’re from Hawaii. Kona town is a great album
Sublime: reggae, ska, Punk, Hip Hop. They had such a unique blend for the times that captivated an entire generation! I don't know a single person that was a teen in the 90s that didn't love Sublime, (or at least had a t shirt). Another reggae infused metal band would be Skindred. There nothing like Sublime, but is along the lines of content that you decompose. Love the Chanel my guy! Looking forward to more songs from Faith No More!🤘
One extension of Reggae you might want to look into is Dub. It's more of a DJ type style that uses samples of Reggae songs and a lot of the old school stuff is really cool. I'd look at something off the Lee "Scratch" Perry/Upsetters album "Super Ape".
I enjoy watching your channel simply for the analysis. Thanks, man.
Some reaggea, that's great! I love to hear things from other genres! You have to check Easy Star All Stars! Their OK Computer full album cover is legendary. But The Dark Side of the Moon's full album cover is even way better. It will blow your mind. Awwright!
Let’s do some pepper or slightly stoopid!! GooD choice haven’t sublimed in awhile
Jailhouse by Sublime is a MUST, its a cover from bob marley and the wailers
Sublime - Get Out!
Sublime - Pawn Shop
yessss, good choice Geebz! if you want to keep rollin' with this type of feel while also doing a local band from Hawaii, you should check out the band Pepper! I recommend their songs "Sitting On the Curb", or "Ho's". Good stuff as always 🤙
Fellow old man here but before the electronic bass music we used to use it to test car sound systems before like 95 electronic bass music wasn't really a thing. Edm was a thing but it didn't translate as well to a car system
i was waiting to hear you touch on the key changes. But still great review )
You would love any track off of Kendrick Lamar’s “Good Kid, Maad City”. The production is INSANE.
Namaste
Please more sublime, but B sides!
i know you can't soley react t sublime for this genre but please react to alot more sublime or check out some reggae from New Zealand salmonella dub, katchafire, the black seeds, herbs, fat freddy's drop, kora, trinityroots.. love your vids
you should check out The Aggrolites, such a good band. great video as always. dont push is such a great song.
