By FAR the best replacement singer in the last 20 years. He doesn't take anything away from Bradley but is a great compliment. Look at their concert sales, that tells you something.
i hope everyone can appreciate how lucky us fans are to have someone continue the legacy of sublime. most of the best artists out there have passed away so at least with sublime we can still appreciate and enjoy some new stuff
***** I understand your comment is old, but I have to point out how ridiculous that is. Bands replace guitarists, drummers, and bassists all the time. A singer is just another member. The others are just as important, so why can they be replaces so easily, but a singer can't? I don't think you make a very valid point here.
Well because you average fan associates a song to the voice of the singer who vocally harmonizes the melody. If u take twoguitarist.give them strats with same pedal an amp and sheet music and tell them to play it will sound pretty close depending on small expressions they might use. A slide or bend or maybe a different chord voicing. But if you take 2 people give them lyrics and they sing. ..it will NOT sound the same. Even if both try to sing it exactly the same. That's what the average listener hears. The melody and voice of the singer. So u can replace a guitarist or drummer and unless they are musicians..it won't be as noticeable.
I love Rome. He's a great singer and he sings with a TON of feeling, and when I first heard Panic, I knew he was going to be a great addition to the band. He can never replace Brad but I'm glad they have chosen to move on and continue touring and making music together.
hes a great singer and guitar player. its not hate its loyalty to Bradley and Sublime. i understand that. im cool with this band cause at least they changed their name
I saw these guys live the other day with the offspring. All I can say is that even though he's no Bradley, after seeing them in person it is impossible to not like rome. Seriously he is amazing.
Adrianna Rodriguez thank you so much!! I love my fans but there is alot of talented people who auditioned for the spot and I just happened to be the one! But seriously thank you I love to come on youtubes!! And under a different alias and scope out what y'all think
Still don't know why there's so many Sublime 'fans' that hate on Rome he is great, obviously doesn't sound the same dummy (they are different people if you haven't noticed) but it's just like hating on Brian Johnson of AC-DC when Bon Scott died, they are totally different but fits great in the band, just enjoy them both and that's it
It's always fun pointing out that Brian Johnson was, in fact, a *much* better rock singer than Bon Scott ever was. People who were big fans in the early days always get miffed. They know it's true :) hehehe
Literally, to everyone being mad, the dude is dead. There’s no way your gonna get someone who sounds exactly like him. But rome gets the vibe, he gets the music, and he just gets it. He keeps the soul of the band and that’s what’s important.
Its not nor will ever be Sublime but i can appreciate that Rome has an amazing voice. He's not trying to replace Brad because no one ever will, its still good music.
Hell no, they don't sound way better with the new singer, The original group is always the best, Bradley Nowell was a bad ass, extremely talented,, nothing like singing what you really lived, it comes from your roots & your soul...RIP! But the new singer sounds really good, what a honor he must feel to take over & sing those awesome jams...
Man you guys need to chill hating on rome you guys should be grateful he's keepings brad songs alive he would never replace brad thats why is sublime with rome i think he's doing a great job i miss bradley like everybody else and thanks to rome his songs are not fading away so chill and keep bradleys music alive
Mark Hibbard That's weird to say that's like saying watching a tweaked Rome is like watching a tombstone from 1996 play guitar and sing and we all know how fun that must be for all the sublime fans
Shoot me but Rome sounds good. Am I a fan of the new songs they’ve put out under his lead? Not really, but listening to him play the old songs and keeping the sound going is something I can get behind. He’s sounded decent in all the live recordings I’ve heard.
I like Rome. He sings and plays the songs really good. I mean the difference is that Brad wrote them, so he sung them with all his heart and soul put in. Rome is singing something that someone else wrote, so obviously he'll never zone into it, but still does really great and keeps the music playing.
Sinto falta do Brad mas o Rome é um ótimo cantor e guitarrista. Eu adoro a banda! É muito mimimi por parte dos fãs da antiga formação, eu adoro o sublime mas temos que entender que o Brad não está mais entre nós e que o rome está ajudando a levar adiante o trabalho dessa banda tão boa
Um English? Please with fucking sugar on top id love to read all the shit you're saying about Rome and what a wonderful fucking job he's doing am I right ?
Mason Weyant I'll try to translate it man, yeah he is doing a great job :D "I miss Brad but Rome is a great guitar player and singer. I love the band! Many fans of the old formation are complaining but we have to understand that Brad is no longer with us and Rome is helping to take foward the work of this great band
Rome does sound great performing this material. I am a casual fan and I know most hardcore fans subscribe to the viewpoint that "Bradley was Sublime" or "Bradley was God." Bradley Nowell was a musician who wrote and performed music just as all musicians are. The songs did not die with him and the reality is that he is no longer around to perform them. Eric and Bud were also both important members of Sublime so why shouldn't they be able to reform the band and play the music live since Bradley is no longer around to do so (and yes, I know that Bud is no longer a member of the band)? I am a huge fan of the GD and the music still lives on through the surviving members who contributed to it even though Jerry is gone. There is nothing wrong with that.
Because Brad wrote every song and calling this Sublime is a lie. Not saying Rome is untalented, not at all, just saying this is just a Sublime cover-band and they should change the name and instead of playing some else's song with a few originals they should be doing the opposite. Given I only saw this line-up once, and it was a disappointment to what I remember Sublime's live set. I saw Sublime 5 times, given I was 15-17 years old, this didn't hold a candle to what I remember. I've always felt Brad brought authenticity, at the time when every and any white guy singing reggae was a complete joke. Sublime changed that perspective for me and I assume many others. Seems to me not changing the name to something more fitting is just lazy and shows a lack of originality. Furthermore, Rome's writing style is different than Brad's.
@@Jonny2guns1984this is all facts. Rome is more like pop or country format. Copy paste type vocals. His voice is great & he can control it well but tbh I think the reason brad made sublime the way they were was because his vocals were edgy & made it fun to listen to instead of a note hit perfectly
Some u need to realize it's not the same! Those of us that felt this music wit original members when 40 oz hit the streets of so cal knw it will never b what sublime was! I look at it as the sublime name keeps the memory of the original stuff alive while giving us some pretty cool new stuff!! So chill on all the bickering take a bong hit and listen to it for what it is.
Jeez for years and years now I've been hearing these guys on the radio and never seen them once...I had no idea what the guy looked like... ha Totally thought he looked different
i dont see why everyone gets all mad about sublime now. If eric didn't like how the band was sounding, why would he stay? Clearly rome is doing a good job so people should think about that.
Everybody needs to give Rome a fucking break. Hes helping the band that we all love carry on, and he is continuing Brads legacy. Would you rather Sublime with Rome, or no sublime at all? I bet Brad is looking down on and shaking his head at all the hate. Rome had some pretty big shoes to fill, and i think he is doing a great job!
They don't sound bad at all but far as I'm concerned Sublime died when Brad did...he was the mastermind and creator of Sublime...Sublime would never have existed without him. Wilson and Bud Gaugh are great musicians too but it was Brad was who made them Sublime..and now that Bud isn't in the group anymore it really shouldn't be under the Sublime name anymore.. they can play the same style music but change the name man...and try not to play the old songs so often. They will never have or sound like they did when Brad was around its the same thing with Alice in Chains no longer having Layne..it just isn't right when such a key member is no longer there. RIP Brad Nowell, Layne Staley and the many other greats who've passed too soon..you're time here was limited but your impacts were not.
By FAR the best replacement singer in the last 20 years. He doesn't take anything away from Bradley but is a great compliment. Look at their concert sales, that tells you something.
Rome is kicking ass!! He is bringing sublime back to life!!!
I used to hang out with Rome. He is the coolest guy. I interned at a studio he was working at. He loved my music
Josh Freese on drums = RESPECT
I was just about to say, "Isn't that Josh Freese!?!" Now that's legit as it can get.
John Leete is that freese??? Wow hes freakin everywhere
He was great in Seether.
hey is awesome, loved him touring with NIN
Freese is everywhere. He helped out 311 a few times
Playing guitar while singing is tremendously hard. Respect!
Like I just said I know
Exercise in using brain parts….lmao
i hope everyone can appreciate how lucky us fans are to have someone continue the legacy of sublime. most of the best artists out there have passed away so at least with sublime we can still appreciate and enjoy some new stuff

damn that bassist is on fire!
jonnyboy531 well i dont know sublime that well....
Sulove Tripathee hes new to Sublime.... smh... google young one...use it lol
@@stormiedays6537 Better yet walk up to him and tell him he's just as good as the original guy they had lmao!
@@JerseyToTheBone he is the original
I love Rome. He's a great singer and he sings with a TON of feeling, and when I first heard Panic, I knew he was going to be a great addition to the band. He can never replace Brad but I'm glad they have chosen to move on and continue touring and making music together.
Rome sounds great, I seriously don't get the hate.
hes a great singer and guitar player. its not hate its loyalty to Bradley and Sublime. i understand that. im cool with this band cause at least they changed their name
yes thank you!
Dylan Scott ahh he seems more like a punk rock band member than a original sublime memeber idk
Or a solo guitarist
@@SonikJesus legally they had to change the name because the Norwell estate owned the sublime name and asked them to change the name.
Dude Eric's bass is dope...with all the buttons glued to it! that must've taken hours.
He looks sad 😓😓😓
Who else loves the way sublime strum, their strumming is like a reggae strum
Rome is bringing the sublime voice out like the old days!!!!😎
this is actualy the best live sound quality of this song and it sounds great
I saw these guys live the other day with the offspring. All I can say is that even though he's no Bradley, after seeing them in person it is impossible to not like rome. Seriously he is amazing.
no one can replace you brad even your son. RIP Bradley
His son replaced him Rome is gone
This literally made the hair on my body stand... I’ll always love this song
Rome is the only person can sing Bradley's songs and sound just as good
agreed
agreed
yea im going to check them out in a month and had to see if he could or not. Im pleasantly surprised i must say should be an amazing time.
Adrianna Rodriguez actually he kinda sounds like Bradley if he were here today
Adrianna Rodriguez thank you so much!! I love my fans but there is alot of talented people who auditioned for the spot and I just happened to be the one! But seriously thank you I love to come on youtubes!! And under a different alias and scope out what y'all think
Rome is a one in a billion find to sing for Sublime. A gift. No one can replace Bradley but man, he is the next best thing and great in his own right
Still don't know why there's so many Sublime 'fans' that hate on Rome he is great, obviously doesn't sound the same dummy (they are different people if you haven't noticed) but it's just like hating on Brian Johnson of AC-DC when Bon Scott died, they are totally different but fits great in the band, just enjoy them both and that's it

Sublime with Rome is fantastic live. Saw them play with incubus last year and it blew me away! Bought a sick hat too
Literally, to everyone being mad, the dude is dead. There’s no way your gonna get someone who sounds exactly like him. But rome gets the vibe, he gets the music, and he just gets it. He keeps the soul of the band and that’s what’s important.
wow kick ass performance....love that josh freese in on drums the dudes a monster
Its not nor will ever be Sublime but i can appreciate that Rome has an amazing voice. He's not trying to replace Brad because no one ever will, its still good music.
ROME is the man. he dont need the band the band needs him. brad is gone if not for rome this would not be. thanks Rome!
I was so upset that I didn't get the trombone solo I got mine and learned it so I could play along.
Hell no, they don't sound way better with the new singer, The original group is always the best, Bradley Nowell was a bad ass, extremely talented,, nothing like singing what you really lived, it comes from your roots & your soul...RIP! But the new singer sounds really good, what a honor he must feel to take over & sing those awesome jams...
Belle hommage !c'était un bon groupe mixant reggae, punkrock, hiphop, ska, ragga . Fusion parfaite à l'époque 😢🏁👌
Rome vocal are magic
Rome is awesome and the hate he receives is bs.
Man you guys need to chill hating on rome you guys should be grateful he's keepings brad songs alive he would never replace brad thats why is sublime with rome i think he's doing a great job i miss bradley like everybody else and thanks to rome his songs are not fading away so chill and keep bradleys music alive
Hypothetically what if rome was in the original band and then died and was replaced with brad would yall hate brad
Exactly! People just don't like change.
Good thinking.
Sublimes in my top 3, u don't have the slightest clue.
I couldn't agree more with you.
Mark Hibbard That's weird to say that's like saying watching a tweaked Rome is like watching a tombstone from 1996 play guitar and sing and we all know how fun that must be for all the sublime fans
this guys much better
nope.
Josh Freese is so clean on the drums
This was always Rome at his best
Shoot me but Rome sounds good. Am I a fan of the new songs they’ve put out under his lead? Not really, but listening to him play the old songs and keeping the sound going is something I can get behind. He’s sounded decent in all the live recordings I’ve heard.
That was great honestly! I seriously think Rome is a good fit! 😄
it is nice getting to see a band i would never have been able to see with a new singer. He is not brad, but I love his style. It kicks soft hieny.
I like Rome. He sings and plays the songs really good. I mean the difference is that Brad wrote them, so he sung them with all his heart and soul put in. Rome is singing something that someone else wrote, so obviously he'll never zone into it, but still does really great and keeps the music playing.
It is unfortunate that there is only one of the members of Sublime in it anymore, but they are still amazing
why so many thumbs down? this performance is TIGHT!!
Sinto falta do Brad mas o Rome é um ótimo cantor e guitarrista.
Eu adoro a banda!
É muito mimimi por parte dos fãs da antiga formação, eu adoro o sublime mas temos que entender que o Brad não está mais entre nós e que o rome está ajudando a levar adiante o trabalho dessa banda tão boa

Conheço a música há tempos, adoro; mas é a primeira vez que ouço essa versão, honra muito a original

Nice meeting you today! You seem like a very nice guy...
Rome did a great job filling in 👍
I saw these guys live out in DC and it was amazing!
Going to see these guys tonight, if this video is any indication, I'm in for a kickass show!
Great Performance...
Sounds great Rome!
Respect to Rome
i dont see why everyone gets all mad about sublime now. If eric didn't like how the band was sounding, why would he stay? Clearly rome is doing a good job so people should think about that.
Dari indonesia angkat tangan cuy
