SUBLIME w/ Jakob Nowell - What I Got

Sublime with original members Eric Wilson (bass) and Bud Gaugh (drums) headlined a benefit show for HR from Bad Brains with Jakob Nowell as the singer (playing with his Dad's original guitar & amp) and Trey Pangborn on lead guitar (Long Beach Short Bus). 12/11/2023

This gives me goosebumps and tears to my eyes all at the same time! Jakob sounds so much like his dad! It's beautiful! You know Brad's looking down from heaven beaming with pride.

[@InfectiousGroovePodcast]

I got to see Sublime with Brad but I've sat out of reunion shows up til now. If they came to town with Jakob, I'd probably go check them out.

[@kristidouble910]

Rome just announced he’s leaving next year. I wonder if this means Jakob would be joining? Obviously I respect whatever he chooses, I know in the past he’s said he wanted to be separate from Sublime which is totally valid but this is also amazing

He needs to be their new front man. His dad would be proud. I know I am. This makes me sad and happy. Bradley was part of my youth. Sublime is the shit!!

[@ToxicToastRecords]

HOLY SHIT!! We had LAW (Jakob's band) play at our venue, and he talked about not wanting to do Sublime songs, and wanting to be his own artist. I am shocked at how much he sounds like his father, singing the Sublime songs. So glad he did this, even if it was a one time thing. Next time I'll definitely see this line up, if they play again.

[@adkads27]

He does not sound like Brad.

If this man does not take the spot of Rome, he is doing a disservice because I was too young to go see sublime and I’m in tears right now because I feel like I just got to hear Bradley sing live, but it’s even better because it’s a son singing just like him. I literally cried my eyes out listening to him singing this song just like his father. If I listen to it again I’m gonna cry again this is so beautiful.

[@FrugalGamerFlashback]

This just feels right.

[@kolekuikman799]

Bottom line. He is the missing piece. I hope he doesn't get offended but he sounds like his father, more gritty. Jakob was doing alright with his band but with Sublime He is about to make history! Don't know of any other band to have 2 lead singer, one father, one son, that sound like eachother! Friggen amazing. Can't wait to buy tickets for my family and I when they come to chicago!!!! This isn't sublime with Rome, sublime with anyone.... This IS SUBLIME! mad respect to u Jakob, I know it's hard!

Please stop. He sounds nothing like Brad. He doesn’t have 1% of his dads talent and it’s not Sublime without Brad.

I cant love this anymore. Its perfect ❤. But i do need some new music of course. Gotta atleast try dudes. 3 more albums. Lets do it!. Hit the time machine, come back out, make the bangers that was taken away from us all. I hope songs are in the works. Dont over think it. Dont try to make 90s music. Just make music in the same way its always been. I believe in this. Just jam some stuff, from reality, from the heart, from the soul, from the streets, through all the suffering .... then hit record, and have some fun.

​@@kayleesharp982 that guitar solo is terrible and his guitar all around is not even strong enough to play regular chords. At times he sounds ok singing then he loses it almost immediately by being too spazzy.

I feel like Rome performed the songs better and sounded more like Sublime. Jakob is giving it a nice try but it sounds like karaoke. Rome was just in your face, more aggressive, sounded way more like Sublime.

[@ri067953]

I agree

[@lilramborambo4399]

Okay.....Well I'm going to say something that needs to be said... I've watched Sublime live with Bradley several time's back in the day in Chico California.... That sound is gone and his son sounds nothing like him... I know,,, buzz kill but it's the truth.. But he does have the right to play his father's music ... Bradley's voice was much sweeter , it was more along the line of his reggae musical influence... I'm not sure most people reading this will understand what I'm saying it's one of those thing's that you really had to be there to hear for yourself... And sadly that can never happen because that sound is gone forever.... I understand people's need to recapture what is gone, but something that unique can never be replicated. Much luck to Bradley's son and Sublime I hope this brings healing and closure to what could have been... Sublime definitely made history and will go down as one of the greatest most unique musical trail blazing band's that made there own sound. Much love... Sublime always killed it at Juanitas in the early 90's in Chico California....🫵😉🤙💯💛

[@Cat_1969]

You're not wrong. I keep listening and hoping to hear it. It's close but Brad was one of a kind. That being said, great to see him up there. Glad Bud showed up.

[@lilramborambo4399]

@Oscarhobs2020 Again I'm not trying to rip the kid I am just trying to be real...And you are definitely correct Brad was one of a kind... I hope his son finds his own path with his own sound his father's shoes are way to big for him to put on and it's really unfair of people to think just because he's the son of a legend he can put on those shoes..

[@ri067953]

And everyone is clowning Rome but he kept the band going and did a great job. He did the right thing by stepping down allowing Brad's son to continue his dad's legacy but I have to say Jakob's sound is different and I think Rome voice sounds more fitting than Jakobs does.

[@lilramborambo4399]

@@ri067953 I agree....🤙

I’m sorry but Jakob sounds nothing like Brad and doesn’t have 1% of his dads talent. Honestly, I’ll take Rome over Jakob.
