Like Sublime
 

Can someone suggest a band to me that sounds like Sublime?

I loved their music =(

I've heard people say 311 are similar to sublime, but I havnt heard much by them. Um, you could check out some reggae. You'd probaly like The Science Of Selling Yourself Short by Less Then Jake. Thats all I Got =/

slightly stoopid is similar theyre ok. The Toasters is just plain good ska. Streetlight Manisto and Catch 22 are uptempo and catchy. Authority Zero is poppy goodness.

I would go with 311. Less Than Jake sounds nothing like Sublime, outside The Science of Selling Yourself Short.IMO

Thats why I only suggested Science Of Selling Yourself Short. =P

eh, Im just saying that he wouldn't get to far down that road though that song is a good choice.

I think you may be selling yourself short on your selections http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f3...p/badteeth.gif

You could try

Goldfinger
Less Than Jake
No Doubt (old stuff)

for slightly similar sound

why not just listen to sublime?
or find a cover band?

Why bump an old thread that's irrelevant because the starter doesn't post anymore? And besides he/she was just looking for recommendations.

you would proably like less than jake no doubt b4 she became a sell out reel big fish phish maybe alot of the up beat bob marley sounds like sublime theres sublime trubute bands out there like bad fish and long beach dub all stars and krs-1 is more rap that anything but its got brad in it

Yeah 311 to a certain degree is like sublime (some people say 311 is a rip-off of sublime), Long Beach Dub All-Stars has the remaining members of sublime in there, Long Beach Shortbus (eric wilson's band) slightly stoopid, Voodoo Glow Skulls are a good ska band

OPM have been compared to Sublime, and although they don't really sound similar per se, both bands combine Ska, Reggae, Dub, Punk and Hip-Hop with a special little touch of Pop which makes their songs so catchy.

Sublime are the superior band though.

Sublime is a really popular band in the college community that I go to. There are a few local reggae/dub bands around.

Some of the popular ones are:

5th Generation

Badfish is the most popular Sublime cover band. Other similiar bands are Slightly Stoopid and Pepper. Check 'em out.

pepper sounds simmilar to sublime

try long beach dub all stars

and long beach shortbus.....i think both those bands have the bass player from sublime.

You can try "Save Ferris" they have a similar sound to me.

Try:

MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES
ALPHA BOY BAND
FISHBONE (late 80's/early 90's)
BABY HEAD (new U.K band) www.myspace.com/babyhead
SKANKT www.myspace.com/skankt

For reggae tinged ska:BEDOUIN SOUNDCLASH
For punk tinged ska: CAPDOWN (First two albums)
SKANKT WW

maybe RX bandits...thats what i've heard anyway.

Big D and the kids table-just got hold of their Strictly Rude album-highly recommended. It's a bit more mellow than previous bands that were mentioned but still no less enjoyable-holler if you want it upped.

Yaay, Authority Zero.

If you want a good AZ song, download (or buy) Everyday. Sounds bland, but it's a realy cool song.

you chould check out illScarlett

if my mind serves me correctly slightly stoopid were like 311 proteges or something. 311 is not the same but they are similar, using more rap than raegae but somewhat similar rock sound.

Pepper
Long Beach Dub All Stars

*I HIGHLY recommend Pepper, they are awesome. Some songs in particular to DL: Green Hell, Ashes, Border Town, Stone Love, Tradewinds, Punk Rock Cowboy, Zicky`s Song *

What is the story behind Long Beach Dub All Stars. I have one of theirs and love it. Is it a bunch of muso's from particular bands or a compilation?

Bud Gaugh and Erik Wilson basically started this band.The band broke up and members went on to create other bands like Slightly Stoopid, LB short bus...I dont know too much more on it though.

Don't think I've seen Mystic Roots mentioned, pretty good band.
