3.0 out of 5 stars It really depends on who you are..., February 6, 2006

By	William G. Thearle "Entertainment Aficionado" (Scenery Hill, PA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

First off let me say that I'm truely amazed that I have only heard of this release 3 months after it came out. Being a huge Sublime fan I'm usually on top of these things but this release seemed to have slipped between the crack. But I digress, onto the review. Here's the main sticking point of this release: If you're a big fan like I am and already have their 6 major releases (40oz. to Freedom, Robbin' the Hood, Sublime, Second Hand Smoke, Stand By Your Van, and Acoustic Bradley Nowell and Friends) there is nothing new here and while the tracks have been remastered there really isn't a great deal of difference between these and the origionals.

However if you are the other type of fan and are only familiar with the radio hits like What I Got and Santeria, then you should definitly check out this release. It features many great tracks from their first three albums plus one from their 4th release which was a rarities album. Chances are that if you've liked what you have heard before you will enjoy the tracks you haven't as well, and hopefully this music will turn you on to them and make you as big a fan of thier music as I am.

And as mentioned in an earlier review if you go to http://www.sublimearchive.com/home.php you will find a wealth of live and rare Sublime tracks for you downloading pleasure that are 100% free. And down worry, the remaining members of the Sublime family fully support this site and it is totally legal. also featured are many other great bands like Slightly Stoopid and The Ziggens which you should check out. Sublime forever!

4.0 out of 5 stars an honest review., November 26, 2005

By	J. Schmidt (ny) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Sublime Gold is sort of both for the old school fan's as well as new school. For people like me who bought the old records years ago and they are all beat up by now this is the record for you. 4 records all on 1 ok well 2 CD's. Also give or take a few good songs that for some reason are missing. The much added bonus is that everything is remastered. All the songs on this from 40.oz and Robbin sound just amazing. Self titled should have been left alone. Perhaps its me but the levels sound off. The track listing could have been more thought out. For people looking at this to get back into sublime or that hear the singles on the radio this is the CD to get as you get those songs as well as all the greats that make this still one of the biggest underground bands to this day. There are still some killer Sublime fans out there and many of the songs on this comp. is the reason why. Waste no time in picking this up. New or Old to sublime there is something for everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars "GOLD" SUBLIME, January 16, 2007

By	Isabella A. "Isabella A." (Globe, AZ) - See all my reviews

This is a two-disc set and it has their best known songs and others.
I love it! I never get tired of it, and the jacket has a quick biography of the band members, so you learn while you listen.
