sublime 10th anniversary
I don't know how many of you have heard
about the re-release of Sublime's s/t
album due out on August 15? It actually looks
like it's going to be really cool and
worth the money. My friend at work at umg
showed me the tracklist on
myspace.com/sublime and I can't wait to
hear more about it. I mean the cd itself is
incredible, so the album remastered, plus a
full album of acoustic
tracks/instrumentals/remixes, AND videos is
very exciting. I also heard somewhere that
they're going to be releasing a boxset in
the fall? Anyone else heard about either of
these?
