Pepper - Stormtrooper

[flintroll187]

they do try to sound like sublime... i know its the same genre but cmon. supervillains are same genre and they have there own sound and they are a hundred times better live

[mtmessmer]

this band reminds me of sublime

[mtmessmer]

this band sounds like sublime!

[4210outlaw]

@mtmessmer false

[ournam3]

If you expect live shit to sound exactly like the album, then fukn go back home n listen to the album!!!!

[Trasta419]

That beer landed upright!!!! Oh yeah pepper rocks too

[senorjiveturkee]

Who needs to be in key when you have that much energy?

[blakefoster937]

lol did anyone else notice the bass player fall at 3:58

[staceyjo2103]

So Pepper sucks BC they're not lip singing their shit? They kick ass live compared to so many other bands. And live performances are also about stage presence and they fuckin bring it.

[vulgarcowpower]

thts not the troubadour. this venue looks to big. and i dont remember the troubadour filming their shows like that..... hmm seems fishy,. correct me if im wrong. but im from l.a. and i dont remember the stage ever looking like that.

[vulgarcowpower]

WTF clippers??? i thought they be from longbeach? this is LAKER town hommie.

[360NickFlip]

Dam they suck live

[YourSisterOnMy7inch]

Heroin killed Brad Nowell, but Pepper's douchebaggery is the real death of Sublime. I'm not gonna say Pepper is talentless, because they write some good songs. But come on seriously, Bret is not even singing in the right key at many times live. They suck ass live.. that is how they sound different from Sublime.

Brad was notorious for getting fucked up a lot and preforming live, and Pepper thinks they can be the 'party band' by doin the same and their fans let it slide because they miss Brad

[YourSisterOnMy7inch]

@BMXcomedy the logic is there if you're not blinded by your love for the band and this kind of music. I love pepper, seen 'em live 9 times at 4 different venues.. they are not the greatest musicians live

bret tries for the brad yell/sing and drops off playing bass way too much. On another note.. you cant tell me the cadnece kaleo is going for in his voice isn't built from a foundation of wanna be bradley nowell acoustic style. It's so obvious that they are compared constantly to sublime.

[YourSisterOnMy7inch]

i love pepper but come on you gotta be blind to not see that they are douche bags.. its thier style, its in the lyrics of thier songs, its thier charm.. if you can't see it then you don't know the band that well.. or i think you just need long hard exam of yourself in the mirror ya douche haha.. i like a lot of thier studio stuff and thier direction. Yeah brets got a great voice recorded but his lack of talent kills his live preformance

[elizabauerann16]

@YourSisterOnMy7inch i saw pepper like a month ago.. i fucking loved every second of the performance.. they were just as good if not better live than recorded and they are some of the chillest dudes i have ever met

[geoffrosstone]

@YourSisterOnMy7inch thats gotta be the dumbest comment ive read, the second part

[timcrim]

SUN DRIED VIBES!!!

[jayflayer]

if i hear another sublime comment im gonna snap.

[jonnystephens]

check out my band...FAT LIPPED FISH...we have a full length album due march 2011.

[the1stkneegrowever1]

i liked the part when he hit the drums

[ginnungagap3]

is that the guy from LOST?

[mrbigfish16]

why is there alwys someone saying they sound like sublime on every video?

[JandroDub]

I can't wait to see this shit in person today!! Kona Love!

[yininats]

fucking awesome... sublime is sublime... these guys are fn awesome

[sptaugner]

I think they sound better live than on their album... who agrees?

[RO80T]

@sptaugner i think they just make a hell of a live show

[nickistheman12345]

Sublime is legendary. Pepper is awesome but definitely has a distinct style from Sublime. Overall, both are amazing, why complain about Pepper sounding like Sublime when you have both?

[Jackassmotorcyclist]

oh man that funny shit when he falls off the stage, hes so wasted when they filmed this sounds so horrible when there drunk but still gotta love it

[happyrasztakocig]

one love from slovakia :)

[Skate8782]

saying pepper sounds like sublime is retarded. just because its reggae doesnt mean they copied sublime. thats like saying led zeppelin sounds like acdc because there both rock. smoke weeeedddd

[Yesmaamiagree]

They really don't sound much like sublime. Both reggae influenced is all. Everyone in Pepper is a huge sublime fan. They even have a reference to 'Pass me the laserbeam' in this song. So shut up. Enjoy both bands, because they're both fucking great!

[rmcgrath45]

@dcshankles the only album they sound nearly identical to sublime is kona town. plus bret's and brad's voices are way different. now whos the ignorant one?

[jar109756]

@rmcgrath45 not to jump on you man but how can you guys say they dont sound like sublime?? maybe if the only sublime you listen to is the big name songs. listen to slow ride off second hand smoke and some of their older stuff. pepper is identical to it. but i admit that alot of their stuff is different, just in the same genre.

[set92np]

fuck how drunk does bret get before the show?haha

[linkitachan]

the reggae peppers (copyyyy)

[MrMotorboatingurmom1]

deam he plays the bass and sings thats sick

[Elion420]

He Barely Plays the Bass... Wen He does Its Holding Notes, But Go Watch Slightly Stoopid-Cool Down Thats Some Impressive Shit, Ive Noticed Pepp keeps It on the D-L with instros Live... But Props 2 Those dudes Cause It iz Hard Pluckin And Singin

[steevee987]

this song fucking rules, blown or sober

'fucking love pepper

[exileskim09]

sublime has a totally different style than pepper i dont know why people compare them, they really aren't as similar as everyone thinks. dumbasses.

[mdguitar12255]

@exileskim09 relax shithead

[CoryBenhart]

did he fall into the crowd? it was a piss poor stage dive if not

[magic265]

lol i think he fell

[heardc0re]

EU PIRO NESSA MUSICA... fato!

[hendrix6906]

even if they sound or sing like sublime its more good music for me to listen to and i'll definately take it, why hate? i love this type of music i wish more ppl were as good as this

[wakeatl]

They don't sound like sublime. All these asshats like to compare them because they are both in the same genre. They sound nothing like sublime and its probably really annoying to them to hear themselves compared to them every 2 seconds.. Its a genre, it's all gonna sound similar, kinda like rap or country.

[dcshankles]

@wakeatl i'm not sure if you've actually listened to pepper, but they sound almost identical to sublime on most of their material. don't get me wrong, sublime is my favorite band, so it's nice to hear new similar music but to say they sound nothing like sublime makes you just sound ignorant.

[lorenzen162]

Definitely have their own style for sure, not a fan of their new stuff by any means, but different style, more rock.

You should listen to the Pepper-stone love and compare it to Sublime-slow ride :) and you may be able too argue their is some inspiration

[blakefoster937]

@wakeatl being compared to sublime is an honor. pepper does have a similar sound to sublime (especially when kaleo sings) but they definitely have their own distinct sound

[owaaaa984]

i like the double time at 3:27

[hacoome]

They probably had a great time tho... same with the people in the crowd

[FlintHomeLinuxNet]

mmm sounds like sublime to me.

[tymark1]

fuck off.......everyone says everyone sounds like sublime, i dont personally think these guys do, but LONG BEACH DUB ALLSTARS do, but then again they corralated with sublime on a lot of stuff....plus doesnt matter if they sound like SUBLIMe, they are good in their own right, and that is all that matters

[MarauderOfOpeth]

Bret does sing a lot if not exactly like Brad though, I must say.

[sublimefolife]

nah fool

you dont know sublime if you think sublime sounds like this...sorry

[feezy2525]

i thought it was good

[abastine]

damn this song is usually much better...josh is the man, he does a sick version of this song with "brothers gow". BG also does a tight version of black eye with josh for all you bargain music fans.

[udub]

Josh didn't seem to happy at the end there....probably because Pepper sucks live and can't keep their shit together! Singing out of key...changing the song when it was already a hit?!? Getting in the way when Josh has got the lead...it's a shame

[monsterstinker]

PAKALOLO!!

[thenewguy93]

I like it better as a mellower song as on the album.

[dsmundertaker]

yeah, he is obviously to shitfaced to perform in this vid
