Music Debate #140: Sublime

Several really good songs, but I've never really listened to anything outside of their hits.  

[AstralSoul | 502]

I like their hits but never interested me much beyond that. 6/10

[doner24 | 1,195]

40 Oz to Freedom is still a masterpiece from front to back. The radio hits don’t do anything for me.

Feels harsh to give them a 2, I probably have friends who are fans but I would change the station. 

ETA Dammit, I wrote that last night and misread the descriptions - would change my vote to 3 if I could, not that it makes a lot of difference.

Not a personal favorite or anything, but they're still pretty good. 6/10.

[Kguillemette | 1,544]

8/10. They had some absolute timeless classics for sure. Another one of those 90s bands where who knows what would have happened had the dude not died so young.

5. They're okay.

The radio/MTV edit of What I Got was annoyingly overplayed back then.

That's quite a vote distribution.  Something about this band told me it'd be controversial, but I figured there would be minor disagreements. Instead, we nearly have "bingo blackout" on this band.

Solid 10.  I've been listening to Sublime for the last couple weeks.  Essential summertime listening. 

So good, yadda yadda, Brad died too early, yadda yadda, I celebrate their entire catalog, yadda yadda, hit after hit, yadda yadda, masterpieces, yadda.  

I love all their shit.  I'd say Robbin the Hood is likely my favorite album.  It's unrefined but I love the dub stuff and there's great proto versions of what became the bulk of the Sublime album.

3, solid turn the station band

[The Count | 527]

Overrated because of Bradley Nowell's death. Simple songs that are overall lacking. 3/10.
