Sublime: We're Only Gonna Die For Our Own Arrogance

There's nothing quite as awesome as when bands you like like other bands you like, and like them awesomely. Case in point: Sublime's utterly sublime cover of Bad Religion's already fantastic, lo-fi classic "We're Only Gonna Die For Our Own Arrogance."

A simple tune but catchy tune at its core, "We're Only Gonna Die etc etc" still left a lot of room open for Sublime?specifically the golden-throated Bradley Nowell?to have some fun. Despite the fact that the song's little more than a repetition of a chorus, we're still treated to bookends of wonderful ska, with some true-to-the-source punked-out nougat goodness in the center. It's just great.

Add this one to that pantheon of great covers, and someday I'll be back to talk about Goldfinger's "Rio" with you all. [Spotify, Amazon, iTunes]
