El Subliminoso by dada
El Subliminoso is an album by dada, released in 1996. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 7 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “I Get High”, on 7 lists with a best position of #1568.
El Subliminoso, dada's third album, came out on I.R.S. Records in April 1996, and it turned out to be their last for the label. The California trio worked the same way they always had: Michael Gurley on guitar and Joie Calio on bass trading lead vocals on every song, Phil Leavitt holding down the drums, and melodies stacked high with harmony.
That sound was built on the road, where dada were known for marathon shows running two and a half to three hours, the kind of work ethic that wins a loyal crowd one town at a time. "I Get High" is the cut that has kept turning up in rock radio countdowns. SoundScan counts 36,000 copies sold, and Blue Cave Records reissued it with bonus tracks on July 13, 2004.
