    As a Sublime fan, you should look into Slightly Stoopid. Bradley Nowell discovered them, and signed them to his label. I would arguably say they are better than Sublime, in my opinion anyway.

    If you dig mid-range indy rock, I'd suggest checking out the Trews. They're an indy act out of Canada that's just starting to get attention south of the border. I heard their new single the other day and I was interested enough to look further into their stuff -- their back catalog is really good. Here's a link to their new stuff; it's as good a place to start as any.

    the motet (kina indy rockish, lots of stuff makeup their sound though)


    battles (more rock influenced)

    toubab krewe (worldly beat rock)

    Zilla (best band of all time....in my opinion lol...definitely not indie rock tho...check them out if you really want to discover something different. hard to describe their sound. never heard anything like it, which is precisely why they are one of my favorites for any occasion...)

    The Waking Eyes.

    Their new CD, Holding On To Whatever it Is, is one of the best albums I've heard in a long time.

    But their live show will blow you away and make you a dedicated fan for life. Best live band I've ever heard.
