Iconic Long Beach, CA reggae-punk alternative-rock band Sublime was founded in 1988 by Bradley Nowell (vocals guitar), Eric Wilson (bass vocals) and Bud Gaugh (drums). Their self-produced debut 40 oz. to Freedom was released in 1992 via the band s label Skunk Records and has subsequently been certified double platinum. The classic double album is home to such radio hits as Date Rape and Badfish, plus the band s stylized covers of the Grateful Dead s Scarlet Begonias, The Toyes Smoke Two Joints, Bad Religion s We re Only Gonna Die for Our Arrogance and The Descendents Hope.
The singular sound of Sublime, alternately polished and rough and ready, finds stoner rock, rap, punk, and hip-hop funk blended with doses of ska, rock steady, dancehall, and every other pungent flavor of reggae. The result was a beautiful, warts-and-all brand of poetry – a powerful new blend of street sounds and party music. In Nowell, Sublime had as astounding singer and lyricist who created his own edgy but expressive underground vernacular. And in Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh, Sublime was fortunate to have an agile, rock-solid rhythm section that could cover the entire musical waterfront. – David Wild
