  • i seen sublime with rome at the smoke out

    shit was dope idk y evrybody hates on rome he has a killer voice

  • all the songs sound the same

  • There's a reason they have a different style, same reason they have a different name, because they are not the old Sublime, regardless of how good Sublime was, this is a different project. Asking Eric and Bud to quit playing music cuz Brad died would definetly have been something Brad wouldn't have approved of, so go listen to Sublime if Sublime with Rome offends you so much

  • You Tube down loader ACTIVATE!!

  • As far as music.. This stuff is pretty good.. But Brad made it him and his life. This has no LIFE to it. Boring.

  • Quite honestly if Brad was still alive this is probably the direction and sound Sublime in 2011 would have.

  • @kynanelliott you're an idiot. No-WAY. No fucking waaaay.

  • @TheVinegarballs I think I agree with that other guy. where would the old sublime (the best sublime) fit in today?

  • this is the biggest letdown of an album i've ever downloaded. rome ramirez is a terrible songwriter and lyricist. this music is less than "oh itll work". that's like fuckin long beach shortbus for me (actually they werent that bad, but you get it). this is just terrible. the songs get old after the first listen, and they seem to think they're a pop group now. even paper cuts and my world were terrible. it doesnt have that same feel that sublime had, it sounds like a watered down dirty heads

  • @whatupmaaan i feel you completely. Why cant every sublime fan be like you and me? Why is everyone swayed in by hollow catchy tunes that sounds nothing like sublime? FML!!!!

  • @TheVinegarballs all these new bands need to start trying, cuz im not satisfied with the stupid 4 chords boring ass songs about smoking weed and attempting to get girls. although i do like some of the bands from around where i live (ballyhoo!, cant hang, 86 the effort) none of them satisfy me as much as the older bands did

  • Man, what I dont like about this is....if Brad was still alive, the music would still be so raw. Listen to Bud and Eric man, they sound better than ever. Rome lacks the heart/hook that Brad always had. But, it's all good.

  • @MrJustSomeTits It's probably the lack of heroin

  • @kiloggolik and lack of talent.

  • @kiloggolik thats very true

  • The sublime music is amazing, I can still tell it's sublime with the instruments, but I do miss the grit Rome is missing, even though he does a good job.

  • Where is Sublime?

  • I LOVE these album samplers, one listen and I bought this album, if you love Sublime with Rome check out the album preview for UK & JA hotter than hot Dub City Rockers there is even a tribute to Bob Marley and Brad and all our lost Reggae heroes.

    RIP Respect due! Peace x

  • my world and papercut aren't that good, but besides that i love it!s

  • I wasn't sure the first song but I'm digging it, good driving music

  • This is Amazing...I really want them to Do a cover Album of old Sublime stuff...Just so I can get that feeling again the one I got when I heard it the first time...

  • @RaikiriIketani that's what seeing them live is for

  • Skaa Gringo!!! XD

  • โหวๆๆๆๆ มาแล้ว

  • Fuckin Rome is sick, wait whaaaaaat is from Fremont, I'ma be there in 25min.

  • สุดยอด รอมานาน

  • it was pretty good.. until i saw wiz kalifa...

  • fuck this is sweet!! doing brad proud guys! these guys who are hating on rome shut it! they have good judgement in a new member so they can continue to rock our socks!

  • @skankinjon91 Thats why Bud left.....

  • You Better Listen is going to be the next hit. I can't that jam out of my head. This album is so fucking dope.

  • it still sounds like sublime to me... just be glad they still make music... ungreatful mother fuckers

  • i believe its still good maybe not as good as it was with brad but still good

  • Can't wait til they come to Salt Lake City.

  • how many famous/touring bands are all you opinionated cunts in ? nickelback doesn't count

  • brad is legend obviously and greatly missed but i bet hes happy his band is still going on and rome is a wkd replacement theres maybe one song on the album i dont really like but the rest are fcuking awsome keep it up rome lookin forward to future releases :) lovin spun

  • im sorry i cant really feel it!

  • Releasing Lovers Rock instead of Take it or Leave It as the second single is a HUGE HUGE HUGE mistake.... Im shoked with the decision. Take it or Leave it could have been huge....fail by the record company or Sublime w/ Rome or whoever decided....

  • never been a sublime fan. so as just "anybody" i think its safe to say that this is definitely not the next brad. Its weird. They shouldnt carry the title sublime. They should name is something completely different

  • Brads back in black

  • sounds way better than i imagined

  • Sublime without bradley dont mix like 2 dicks and no bitch

    fuck this shit. keep it 90's

  • Can't believe all this talk about the name of the band! Ever here of Bob Marley AND The Wailers? How about Tom Petty AND The Heartbreakers? Yeah people have been doing this for years and Sublime's no different

  • I like this alot.

  • you know whats annoying? people say he sucks cause hes not like bradley, but even if he WAS a perfect copy of bradley people would bitch that hes not original. hes doing his own thing, think of it as "Rome with the guys of Sublime"

  • @MrWalrus121 dude ive never been a sublime fan and even i think this is terrible. Brad wouldnt do gay shit like this

  • @DanielAmayaFinn

    its definitely a different feel i agree

  • Hey all,

    I think the music is really good but it is not sublime, when eric and bud where is Long Beach Dub All Stars they didnt call the band Sublime with Raz 1 and so on.

    The had to change the name cuz of the Knowell family so they should have come up with something better than Sublime with Rome,

    Peace out all also check out the Ska band Beneath The Reef

  • They should call the band Rome or something, seriously, you don't see every band with Dave Grohl in it called "Nirvana with 4 other people".

  • @TrollersJustice haha i thought the exact same thing

  • Like Nivarna, Sublime died with Bradley. You should really all start treating Sublime with Rome like it's a different band.

  • im feelin Murdera. its pretty nasty. kind of reminds me of marleys soul rebel for some reason but not as good

  • Panic is the best song on this, it combines sublime and Rome amazingly

  • Its a great album, its just going to be hard to think of Sublime without Brad but none the less, Rome is great.

  • I cant find one song that I don't like, great job guys!

  • oh wow when the ad thing said featuring panic i thought it meant panic! at the disco :S

  • it's too mainstream sounding.

  • @moshpittttt: so is the self titled album, what of it? it's still some sick songs

  • I love it!

  • Awesome album! Great job Rome! Great Job Sublime! Keep making great music! :) What a positive, fun, wispy summer rock album. Love and good music is in the air!

  • This is awesome i love it. a lot of the songs sound similar but still great album!

  • this band should have been named Rome with Sublime.

    do not misunderstand me, this is not a bad album but it has nothing to do with the heritage of Sublime.

    only Panic reminds me a little bit of Sublime style all the other stuff is more Rome than Sublime.

  • This is perfect. I am sooo illegaly downloading this. <3

  • @mrdjkorn lmfao you're like that guy that shouts out "hey you kids wanna buy some drugs" at random

  • wtf

    

  • I bought it its a pretty cool album

  • SHIT! my hero's without brad have turned into REBELUTION! Sublime paved the way for the slightly stoopids, the expendables rebelution, 311 still loves to copy brad's shit and it's really sad. Don't do drugs folks, if you die your music your legacy will all be replaced and it's only your fault everyone will sell the shit out because of a name, why'd you have to go brad? You had everything to live for...??

  • 311 copies brads shit?? you are delusional..i love sublime but tim mahoney destroys brad...and hey, mahoney is still alive and well....

  • Don't like Rome? Kiss my ass. Okay, Brad was amazing but can you bring him back to life? Didn't think so. So stop bitching because it is what it is. Brad's gone Romes here and that's not going to change so stop with your pointless arguments. Just be thankful that sublime didn't completely stop making music.

  • I like this but i think most of the fast guitar parts sounds the same...like rome found a few chords he liked and just used them for every song..It is still good.. each songs just reminds me of the previous one..

  • My one complaint is that the production is to LA. I like the fact that their old stuff was a bit on the rough side.

  • If I was the Eric I'd do something different in certain songs.. but it still fits. I love this album and been listening to it non-stop! Holy fuck! <3 At least Rome has the balls to actually be put into that position to keep Sublime alive. Fuck all ya haterz! Having Anger Towards Everyone Reaching Success! RIP Brad <3

  • If they changed the name of the band i would gain much more respect for them

  • If someone played this for you w/o telling you who it was, you probably wouldn't be hatin' so much! I think they should've gotten a new name since it's a new band, but whatever they're called I'll listen..and this is def better then anything else coming out these days..so all you haters STFU and chillll!! RIP Bradley

  • My favorite tracks are: Panic, Murdera, My World & Paper Cuts.

    It's a GREAT album but I feel that there are too many mid-tempo Reggae

    tracks which sound VERY similar.

  • is this cd in stores or only online?

  • @AntiHeroSkateboardss i saw it in stores

  • Goddamn this is actually pretty good. Good luck Rome, Bud, and Eric.

  • i wish there were more funky basslines kinda dissapointed

  • i love this its not as good as back in the day but its really close . i mean haters its this or no new music and i rather have very very slightly less good music then none at all. p.s im not dissing rome i love him

  • im not a fan of rome when he sings brads songs but i have to admit im likin the new album. but on the songs that i dont like its because of rome, not because he's bad but because the singing sounds kind of like pop. all they should do now change the name and it would be fine. oh and whats up with the dub step shit on safe and sound? that i dont like because they are just trying to do whats in not what they like.

  • i'm glad sublime is keeping the new music going, rome is definatly talented and he can't replace brad, brad was just incredible but the songs aren't bad, definatly a little pop produced which sucks, but there are some good songs on here, murdera, dynamite, panic, only and my world aren't bad, take or leave it is catchy, almost all the songs are catchy, just really generic and same sounding. But i'm happy there's new music to listen to

     R.I.P. Brad

  • love this. haters can shove it. all haters can do is hate and misspell shit.

  • why do people keep on saying that this is something new???..this is clearly a rip from previous sublime stuff..this has bits and pieces that totally mirror the original product.."safe and sound" sounds like a parody of "April 29, 1992" and "my world" sounds a little like "Date Rape"...i think this is decent, but what bothers me the most is that they're trying to ride the wave using the "Sublime" moniker as a means for commercial success because alot of people are accustomed to the name "Sublime"

  • the song Spun has me on this i really wana hear the full song. cant wait till tomorrow! thanks sublime for finding a new singer so my generation can enjoy you. and rome is beast i dont care what anyone says. see you guys the 13th of august

  • I dig it...this is the band Pepper wishes they could be and been all along, and I dig Pepper too. It's fucking Bud and Eric and anyone who is in the least bit familiar with Sublime's (and Bradley's) reggae/ska/rocksteady/dub roots would know that it's ALL in the drum and bass...Rome is cool enough on his own, coupled with Bud and Eric it's a nice fresh sound.

  • @bitthehong you guys are my favorite band, you should come to dallas and not make it an 18+ concert

  • Rome needs to start doing drugs so he can write better lyrics. I suggest heroin.

  • I take that back, everything EXCEPT Safe and Sound is tight... Get your dubstep shit off man :/

  • Wow, great little reggae/ska album we got here. I will certainly be picking this up!

  • Sublime with Rome is better than no Sublime at all. RIP Bradley. We miss you.

  • Rome will do, since we can't have Bradley. They killed Bradley! Those bastards!

  • They pretty much all sound the same.... Rome just makes it sound like the Dirty Heads.

  • Of course its commercially produced they are tryin to get a main fan base down..DUH!

  • stop acting like you know what brad wudve wanted. are u brad? no? then shut the fuck up. Think of it this way: Sublime as we know it is over and gone. Sublime With Rome is a brand new band that nobody's ever heard of. Remember and always love the message and love of Sublime's music but this brand new band might even be able to do that too. So don't single them out :) it's sublime with rome. not sublime.

  • @Boeser51 then why do they call it sublime with rome, just to capitalize on the name? Why can't they name it something different even though eric wilson and bud gaugh are in it. The contrast with this music in association with the name sublime kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth

  • @WildBillHickums i think ik wat u mean. i dont think this is a bad album. the musics pretty on par w sublime but romes more pop oriented lyrics kinda added a candy coating that sublime fans are still not comfortable hearing yet. But im givin em the benefit of the doubt. its their first album. i look forward to where they cud end up. im a brad fan. always will be. but im willing to give this a chance. if eric n bud think rome is suitable then im ready to hear it. keep an open mind.

  • @Boeser51

    Amen. It's been over a decade since Sublime has been together. Bradly =/= Sublime. Bud and Eric where there as well and obviously are still talented musicians. The Beatles said it best, "Let it Be". If someone can't get down with then you were never a Sublime fan.

  • It may be bud and eric, and at face value isnt bad, but it just reminds me of all the copy cat bands that tainted the skunk sound. its just hard to enjoy.

  • I don't see how this deserves much praise. Half the songs sound exactly the same instrumentally, and the vocals are crap.

  • @battistin1 Congratulations....???

  • Comment removed

  • The only issue I have with this album is a majority of the songs are about love. I am in no way saying they are not good songs, there is just no variety.

  • Overall I like it. Panic is awesome of course. Other stand outs include My World and Take It Or Leave It. 

  • well i definitley am listening to this whole album july 12th

  • everybody hating on rome cuz hes not brad can shove it. get used to it...this album sounds like itll kick ass. better than most shit being produced these days.

  • @gtrfrk443 so true. I love this band. rome doing a great job.

  • Take it or Leave it sounds awesome :)

  • This Is Good :] But,

    I Miss Bradly :/

  • FUCK! Wiz Khalifa? C'mon, man. Now Sublime's going to be one of those bands for the trendy fucks.-____- I must say though, though NOTHING like Brad's Sublime, Bud and Eric still got it and Rome ain't bad, he IS trying too hard to fill Brad's shoes. I just wish they don't become "cool" for the moment, I hope they remain timeless.

  • romes a whiny bitch

  • wow... There are two good songs on this album. I was hoping for more upbeat side of sublime.

  • Why can't I thumbs up or down any comments?! Why did they collaborate with the talentless black and yellow fuck. Well, I'm not really enjoying any of this anywhere near any Sublime song.And why the stupid synth effects.

  • to be honest! SOUNDS GREAT! but FOR ME this is not sublime, and it doesn't sound like sublime, its a completely different band, i'm just telling!

  • @mundo506 It Aint sublime Dum fuck...its Sublime WITH ROME....he killed the Long Beach Vibe...

  • @rocko562 que te den por culo!

  • dang I've kinda been a Rome hater for them trying to use the "Sublime" name, but he is great in Lay Me Down and I actually think Ill pick this album up after hearing these samples. Of course it isn't "Sublime," but it's still good. I'm impressed.

  • Paper cut, Panic, Spun and My World are the only interesting sounding songs to me.. the rest kinda sound the same. Not looking that great from the preview, but i'll reserve judgement till after i hear full cd.

  • although he has a great voice, these lyrics are vanilla... 

  • you all need to shut up this isnt Bradley's Sublime, it's Rome's Sublime. It sounds different, and it should. It's great to finally see Sublime reincarnated. I'm seeing them live on the tenth and I'm pumped to hear the classics preformed live but I'm also really excited to hear these tracks too.

  • @IonicDistortion dude, you gotta tell me how that show goes!

  • eh i dont like new hip hop AT ALL i hate it. sublime had always been a window intot he old hiphop world that bradley loved. rome, hes just a kid in this new generation, and hes pulling the old farts with him as much as i hate it, its happening:[

  • I feel if they had a different name half the people that said they do not like this record would have a different opinion. It gets so old hearing people try to compare the new with the old because it will never match up. people need to just relax and enjoy the music. thats what its all about

  • This album seems to be O.K. because it sounds like pop: very commercially - produced and not composed. Thets my assessment.

  • Wiz does not fit the whole sublime seen . he is all about money and living it up . Was i hearing things or didnt bradly say . ( A TIP FROM ME GIVE UP ALL YOUR MONEY TO CHARITY ) YA. you well never here wiz say that.

  • safe and sounds like it gonna be fuckin BEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Honestly...the best song that it sounds like that is comming off this album..is dynamite. Everything else kind of sounds the same. No dub jams. romes voice doesnt fit punk (even tho i think hes a good singer) the song wit wiz is boring. sounds like some shit you hear in the background while playing beer pong. Murdera is alright. I hope they put out another album after this...and have it sound less poppy. I hope rome gets serious. hes got the potential.

  • @FrankieGgoes yeah, the whole album sounds pretty boring... when I first heard "panic" I though Sublime was back, but the rest of the record is just lame ass reggae (and don't get me wrong reggae is great)... It would be pretty good for another band, but not for Sublime

  • I went into this album totally pumped. Then I hear some of it and, despite my trying to stay positive, my thick skin of cynicism has affected my anticipation deeply. Despite that, I'm confident that Rome will cut that skin away with his piercing vocals. I hope I'm right.

    Oh yeah, fuck Wiz Khalifa, btw.

  • needs more punk influence and less repetative choruses but other than that its pretty sick

  • LEAK DAMN U!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wow lovers rock is absolute money! they have a link to the full version posed on their website, cant get enough!

  • longest preview I ever listened to.

    I love it though :D

  • wiz smokes, sublime smokes, that song is about smoking. cant wait for july 12th sublime and 311 in pgh!

  • @tay4lor1gang2 dude thats sick i really want to go to the philly show amd i agree wiz fits in this song his old shit is way better most of his new stuff sucks but some are good

  • Needs more punk, but overall this is really good. Looking forward to picking up a copy.

  • illuminati shit, swr never going to be near at sublime's lvl.

    R,I.P. Bradley Nowell

  • I really love this. Sure, they wont be exactly as they were with brad like 15 god damn years ago. I think rome is a really good choice for their new lead, and he's talented and even sounds like brad a little. Just shut the fuck up, and be happy that sublime is still going on, playing shows, and still coming up with new things. Its good. Nah, its great. And this all sounds amazing. I cant wait until the whole album comes out. Brad would be proud of all of this.

  • Hmmm seems on pretty much all Sublime with Rome videos on youtube Likes beat dislikes so theres some people that like them including me fuck you all i get to smoke with rome how chill is that?

  • To the one who said Sublime with Rome never covered anything from Robbin the Hood....There are many videos of them doing STP on here....which is from Robbin the hood....some of their best songs are from that CD i think...Greatest hits, STP, All you need.

  • safe and sound is that shit!!!

  • sublime always collab with "the other" rapper. KRS ONE?

  • Some instant classics sprinkled with songs that will grow on me....this will be on repeat all summer!! Concert day after release Thanks SWR!! R.I.P. Brad, lou dog

  • FUCK ADVERTISMENTS ON YOUTUBE!!!

  • Lou Dog for life.. this is still pretty tight.

  • @geoffrosstone Oh I did not know robbin the hood is their most underrated album for no hardcore sublime fans self titled and 40 oz to freedom is more to like I also know of a band that cover sublime but they never cover robbin' the hood. I also realized that most band that are influence by sublime have more of the reggae stylee than punk

  • jus plain obvious illuminati symbolism? really? why the fuck is there an all seeing eye on the album cover where the head should be. its not about the loving anymore and thats why it doesn't give u that feeling that sublime or any other music u love gives u

  • @wagz420 I dont really understand your comment...but if your saying SWR is down with that false illuminati bull. then you should look up what the eye in the triangle REALLY means. if your saying they r down with that. Dont listen to word of mouth by idiots who have no clue what they r talking about.

  • I've heard full versions of Panic, Can You Feel It?, and Murdera, and they are pretty damn good compared to the songs the Long Beach Shortbus and All-Stars put out. Rome has talent, and even though he is not Brad, at least he has a decent voice, and wrote at least a few good songs on this album...Panic is such a good song, as is Can You Feel it?

  • sounds great!! can't wait to hear the whole thing!

  • they need another lou dog :/

  • @geoffrosstone Oh ok I never knew that I know other bands that do covers of sublime but they never do robbin the hood I think it is the most unerrated sublime album especially for not hardcore sublime fans they are most known 40 oz freedom and self titled

  • You have to appreciate that Bud and Eric finally got away from doing stupid shit like LOng Beach Short Bus and using their talents to give us a sound that we have been missing for 15 YEARS.

  • @BondsTakesRoids- How can you say "Bradley was everything to and for that band?" YES Bradley gave it's soul especially when performing songs he wrote, but you can't discount Bud and Eric that much. Sublime for a large part covered songs (Boss DJ, Big Salty Tears, Guava Jelly, etc...) and what you have here is a full album of original stuff.... Yes Rome lacks some passion in his voice but you can tell he is no Bradley..

  • Safe & Sound, fucking awesome

  • ........ is it me or did i break the reply button

  • I like this album, you can never replace Brad, but Rome is good. I miss Bud & Eric

  • you know i aint a huge fan of the fact that they replaced brad but i can say rome has the same soul sound of brad, this is one album i will buy, these guys are tryin to keep the memory alive and i respect the face that true sublime fans will find this album good no matter how much they hate the fact that it aint brad behind the mic, it still has the soul of the original....

  • Comment removed

  • how about we just let them live their lives the way they want.. stop acting like you know them to give your opinion on who and what the band did wrong with this cd. and give up on the differences between brad and rome. its a different band.. no one complains about ac/dc, pink floyd or any other bands out there that have changed their line ups cuz of a death..

  • Dude, I want to make love to a physical form of Paper Cuts.

  • unbelievble what some people say, be ashamed, their so cool live im glad i could listen to my favorite songs performed by bud,eric,rome Fuck yeah cant wait to see u back in europe!

  • cant wait to buy this album and play the hell out of it.

  • Did u noticed how sublime with rome never cover Robbin' the hood

  • @Bandelero297

    yeah, do you know why?

  • Lover's Rock, Can You Feel It, and Safe & Sound are THEE BEST songs on this album PERIOD, POINT, BLANK !

  • Rating as just another modern rock album, not bad. Rating as a new Sublime album, SHIT
