Album Review
In 1996 Sublime was the talk of the music world, until the lead singer died of a heroin overdose, but from the ashes that is sublime a new band has formed. That bands name L. B. Shortbus, which is short for Long Beach Shortbus. This band started by the members of sublime and Long Beach dub All-stars which combines the style sublime and gives it a new twist. This style of California rock infuse reggae, ska, and punk rock. There newest album Flying Ship of Fantasy does that and more. Between the chilled out beats of Beautiful to the adrenaline rush that is Walking Man. You are sure to find at least one song in this 18 song C.D. that you are bound to like. In all L. B. Shortbus provides you a great mix of different styles of music, just perfect for any party you are planning. If you're a fan of sublime, long beach dub all-stars, or just of fan of punk, reggae, or ska I would give this C.D. a look. It's about as close to sublime as you going to get.

"Shortbus rips ! This record is simply amazing. Everything clicks in the right places. RAS1 is better then ever, his vocals "grew" a lot when compared to LBDA. Eric, Trey like always are on top of their stuff. This record with more publicity easily could hang in the top 10. Just get the damn thing."
Fu**in amazing

"L.B. Shortbus is a very talented band. if ur into Sublime, LBDA, Slightly Stoopid, i suggest you pick this up, you will not be dissapointed. Eric Wilson in an amazing bassist. I think he is one of the greatest bass players of all time, just because he can flow so good. I love the rolling bass lined that he can deliver. Every song on here is amazing and Ras 1's vocals are better than ever. Let's just say that this cd definetly delivers to my expectations."
