Binding: LP RecordEAN: 0602517800083 Format: Explicit Lyrics Label: Box Tunes Manufacturer: Box Tunes Number Of Discs: 2 Publisher: Box Tunes Release Date: September 30, 2008 Studio: Box Tunes Editorial Review: Amazon.com: For all his tattoos and bulked-up frat-boy persona, singer Bradley Nowell had real soul, which made his fatal heroin overdose even more tragic. There's more to this Long Beach, California, trio's debut, released shortly after Nowell's death in 1996, than white suburban punks imitating Jamaican ska music. The band comes up with great songs, notably the catchy MTV hit "What I Got"; spooky dub-reggae undertones, produced by the Butthole Surfers' Paul Leary, to go with the snappy horns; and surprisingly progressive lyrics that attack sexism and other social ills, especially on "Wrong Way." Like the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Fishbone, obvious forebears, Sublime become slightly tiresome after 17 songs, but the band is great in short doses. --Steve Knopper Average Rating:
 Rating: - exactly what we wantedthis was exactly what we wanted. the delivery time was extremely fast and the package arrived safe and intact. thank you very much. Rating:  - Not as good as 40 oz. to Freedom, but still good.I kind of liked the more laid back sound of 40 oz. a little better than the radio-friendly sound of this one. The other one had more of a dub (which I love) sound too. This one's still great though. The best word I could describe this album with is "sunny". It always seems to put me in a good mood. Rating: - A musical vision fulfilled (4.5/5)Sublime's self-titled third album, released in 1996, became a cult classic following the death of frontman Bradley Nowell. It's sad to think that if not for Nowell's untimely passing, Sublime might have remained the more underground group they were for most of their career, but in any event, this is a wonderful album. The whole CD emits laidback vibes that make for the perfect chilled-out listening. Sublime combines the emotion of punk rock with the musical conventions of island music. Most songs ...

Paddle out captures the essence of punk rock. Short energetic songs. I get this song stuck in my head when I am paddling out on my board, and it helps me push harder to get past the swell. Rating:  - So-soSublime's self-titled album was one of my favorite albums in the mid-late '90s. I listened to it constantly. Recently, I listened to it again, and while I enjoyed it, it was mostly for nostalgiac reasons. The album has a handful of catchy, mindless, feel-good songs. None of the songs are downright awful (aside from "Pawn Shop") but listening to it again, I realized that the songs are nowhere near as wonderful as I thought they were 10 years ago. (Though "Santeria" is still quite infectious) ... Read More |
