Comment on Comeback of Long Beach Dub Allstars by Jorge Urreta
Since you asked, I guess I'm also qualified to represent the European fans (I'm pretty sure my fellow Sublime fans will get this subtle reference). Well, maybe not. I'm not certain but, at the same time, I'm quite sure I must be one of the few (if not the only one) guys here (Spain) to have all the Sublime records along with the three LBDAS ones. In the latter case it looks like I now have al least two collector's items. I knew about Sublime a few years after Brad's dead, when I discovered "What I got" thanks to a videogame (Dave Mirra's freestyle BMX) and was instantly hooked. I was also lucky to find that a store near me had a copy of Sublime's posthumous self-titled album (the only one available locally). Then turning to the LBDAS was the logical move. And I've been a fan ever since. When I knew about the new record, I crossed my fingers and hoped Amazon Spain had it on stock, so I wouldn't have to import it like the previous ones (yes, expensive). And you know what? Not only they had it available, it was also a Prime item, so I got it in 24 hours. I couldn't agree more with you. This thing is awesome, and I find myself singing all the choruses inside my head all day long.
