‘Look at all the love we’ve found:’ The resurrection of Sublime
The premature death of Sublime’s frontman, Bradley Nowell, snuffed the band’s flame before it truly had the chance to burn. Over a quarter of a century later, Nowell’s legacy is being brought back to life in a big way.
This summer, something very special happened. I had the opportunity to see one of my all-time favorite bands, Sublime, live in concert. Seeing as the group’s lead singer and songwriter passed away eight years before I was born, I’d have never thought this possible.
This is a band my parents started playing for me when I was still in the womb. Sublime’s infectious, one-of-a-kind discography shaped my adolescence and has followed me into adulthood, just as it did for my mom and dad.
Originally rooted in Long Beach, California, Sublime zigzagged across the boundaries of musical genres with a unique fusion of reggae, punk rock and freestyle dub.

Sublime (band)American rock band Sublime is an American band from Long Beach, California that plays a mix of ska, punk, and reggae. Formed in 1988,[1] the band's original lineup consisted of Bradley Nowell (vocals and guitar), Eric Wilson (bass), and Bud Gaugh (drums). Lou Dog, Nowell's dalmatian, was the mascot of the band. Nowell died of a heroinoverdose in 1996, resulting in the band's breakup. In 1997, songs such as "What I Got", "Santeria", "Wrong Way", "Doin' Time", and "April 29, 1992 (Miami)" were released to U.S. radio.[2] Sublime released three studio albums, one live album, five compilation albums, three EPs, and one box set. Although their first two albums—40oz. to Freedom (1992) and Robbin' the Hood (1994)—were slightly popular in the United States, Sublime did not experience major commercial success until 1996 with their self-titled third album, released two months after Nowell's death. Peaking at No. 13 on the Billboard 200, it spawned the hit single "What I Got", which reached number one on the BillboardModern Rock Tracks chart. Copyright ©mudmind.pages.dev 2025 |
