Throughout modern pop culture, melodic music representing
the California lifestyle has always had its place (Beach
Boys, Eagles, Grateful Dead, Red Hot Chili Peppers,
Sublime, Jack Johnson to name a few), and every era yields
a definitive reggae-influenced rock band with HUGE
breakthrough commercial success (The Clash, The Police,
UB40, Sublime, Shaggy, etc.). SLIGHTLY STOOPID, a clear
descendant of that lineage, is primed to be a breakout act
of 2003!
SLIGHTLY STOOPID possess a unique dynamic. They have a
musical kinship so to speak, which is clearly the organic
result of years growing up together in the setting of one
of Southern More...
Review about Slightly Stoopid SScrew all day | Reviewer: jazzie
------ About artist/band Slightly Stoopid
Slighty stoopid takes music to a different level. no matter what kinda day you had when that shit comes on you just close your eyes and start rocken to the beat. my favorite song to calm me down is Circle house blues. but i LOVE the "everything you need" album its one of the few albums i come across where i like everysong on the album. it never gets old or worn out. People who dont listen to it are deffinitly missing out.
Yes i agree with everyone above and below, S.S. is unique. I just learned bout them, just now, and now i can't stop listening to them. I feel like i am driving people nuts, but it is actually contagious, everyone at my work is listening to it now. Slightly if you guys are listening, COME TO HUMBOLDT!!

damnit tony i realize alot af rock has gone down hill since the mid 80s personally i believe most bands that came out after disco one of the biggest tragedy"s to music ever.weren't good and didn't have the spirit of previous bands but alot bands survived that era many broke up but not every single band since kurt cobains death is a coockie band. it sound like your are copying to the exact opinon of some jack ass who calls himself a rock historian music ist exactly like an event or period in history that can followed by marked evnts that directly effect another there are merly moment were we can say alright around this time period music started to change but kurt cobian killing himself didnt have anything to do with the down fall in "talent" in later years. talent has been shut out for looks since around the time music videos started big also the way that record companys control more creativity when this happen you start getting people like boy bands brittny like pop stars and fall out boy these bands are horrible and directly endanger music not this song or this band

so im pretty sure everyone agrees 'tonys' a douche bag! :D this song is amazing. any slightly stoopid song will definitely mellow you out, but this is one that never gets old. ive been into the band for months now, and i have yet to find a song i didn't appreciate or enjoy listening to.
kurt cobain was a fantastic artist, and a rock legend. however nirvana wasn't an underground band. slightly stoopid is. i've probably heard smells like teen spirit 20 times on the radio before, closer to the sun has yet to be played while i was tuned in. (:
bad timing perhaps. ha. love this song and band.

------ About the song Closer To The Sun performed by Slightly Stoopid
You know nothing about music tony. This song sounds nothing like hip hop. And stop trying to show that you know about music by talking about kurt cobain because you are problebly a mainstreamer who only knows songs from nirvana's nevermind album.

screw what you say tony . this song is incredibly bad ass. i'm not even going to lie, it makes my top five, and i would bet money that you would never hear this song on some gay hip-hop station . hip hop can go jerk off and die. lmao , anyhoo this song and band kick ass unlike you (tony) . this is one of those songs that never gets old, kind of like santeria . it's nearly perfect. :D

My view on this song and band is it depends on the person when you listen to slighty stoopid's music, so people shouldn't be critizing when everyone has a different taste of music.
but personally i love this band.

------ About the song Closer To The Sun performed by Slightly Stoopid
This is not trying to be rock or hip hop, they are a mix of rock, reggae, and I'd say dub, which you most likely assume is the hip hop aspect. They are very unique, and they are not extremely popular, I don't get from where you find this as generic bs on the radio. It's really good, relaxing, and generally an awesome song/band.

------ About the song Closer To The Sun performed by Slightly Stoopid
the song sounds just like the other hip hop rock bands i hate this hip hop rock movement. what has happened to rock it declined into something horrible where it's just a fashion that comes and goes. rock died once kurt cobain killed himself even ask a rock historian. the radio is now filled with all these cookie bands

no the lead singer of slightly stoopid is not mike doughty. it is MILES doughty. They are not related in any way and truthfully, Slightly stoopid has two lead singers. the guy singing this song is Kyle Mcdonald, neither miles or mike
peace, love

you know how when you listen to a song to much and it just gets old and you get sick of it little by little. this song isn't like that at all. i listen to it every day and i still feel the same soul vibe through me as i did the very first time i felt. truly soulful.
Mike Doughty??? | Reviewer: David

jasmine c,
Miles Doughty is the lead singer of Slightly Stoopid, not Mike Doughty. I agree that Mike and Sould Coughing are great though but wanted to make that correction. Not sure if they are related or not? Anyone?

I am a new listener to this band and all Ican say is "Incredible". Sick and tired of the stuff I hear on the radio everyday my son brought this CD home and I have basically stolen it from him. Totally hooked on being "Stoopified" and this song definitely soothes my nerves.

------ About artist/band Slightly Stoopid
i have every slightly stoopid cd and yet i still feel like i cant get enough. been to a bunch of concerts, going to a few more. i hit shuffle on my ipod, officer comes on and i just smile. its just mellow, feel-good music with the occasional metal riff. nothin' better than a slightly stoopid session. if you haven't seen them in concert, you're missing out on one hell of an experience.
I just love slightly stoopid. There music is like my therapy. It relaxes me and there songs just fit in with everyday problems. I am a big fan of sublime and just listening to slightly stoopid puts them right behind. I just love slightly stoopid. I repeat there songs over and over again and I never get tired of listening to them.
