Sublime

Overview Edit

Sublime is the third album released by ska-punk band Sublime. Originally intended to be titled Killin' It, the band and record label agreed to substitute an eponymous title due to lead singer Bradley Nowell's death prior to the album's release. After debating whether to hire a replacement for Nowell or break up, the surviving members decided to end Sublime.

The album was a major commercial success, going five times platinum by 1999 and etching Sublime into a permanent place among the stars of mid-90s alternative rock. The album was faithful to Sublime's ska, dub, and reggae influences, with tempos ranging from the frantic — such as "Seed," "Same in the End," and "Paddle Out" — to the slow and deliberate, such as "Pawn Shop" and "Jailhouse."

Sublime marked the band's only album on a major label (MCA) after several releases on Skunk Records.

What do Amazon.com customers think?

Ultimate 90's c.d.

I bought this c.d. because like a poser I liked the songs on mtv. However when I stuck it in my car's c.d. player I was blown away after each track. There are some songs in life that have a good beat and there are others that carry a good little story to them, these songs carry both, great words great beats on every track. After listing to this c.d. twice you listen to the words so intently that you can sing along with the windows open, and just feel great. Must own c.d. for anyone. Great from beginning to end, a rarity.

Good album

3.5 stars. Sure, it has highs (no pun intended) and lows but there is some good material on this album. The ska/funk thing they have going in is very catchy. The better song you've probably already heard on the radio so what you're getting should really not be a surprise.

Recommended.
