Yes, a band, but used to mean terryifying, awe-inspiring, dwarfing. Scary, but a good kind of scary.
Seeing a tornado for real was sublime!

unbelievable band...

oh and to the guy who says going mainstream isnt sellin out, look at all the songs most (i made sure to say most) people put down as their favorite songs. what i got, wrong way, santeria, etc. this shows that sublime is left with the notion that they were popular for those songs and most people just hear those songs because they were on the radio. sadly, sometimes that is true and when they think of sublime, they think of what i got. i hate that. sublime was more than that and i find those songs to have less meaning than all of their other ones. i also hate it when they say sublime is their favorite band and they say one of those songs is their fav. song. and i actually enjoy having to put a cd in to listen to it so i don't pull up to a car at a red light and hear the exact same shit playing with some fag driving. So unless you like youre bands to be remembered for one song, then go mainstream like you said. no offense to the true fans of them on this site (i kno who u are by ur choice of songs)

(adj) to be outstanding; very good
synonyms: awesome, incredible, great

(n) a unique band from Long Beach, California which blends elements of reggae, ska, punk and hip-hop, releasing various cd's, but with only 3 mainstream cd's, the most popular being the self-titled 1996 album Sublime, which, unfortunately, the leadsinger, Brad Nowell, died before it made a great amount of money. Obviously, they were correct in naming themselves "Sublime"for their talent and ability to stand out, but took lyrics of previous bands, intentionally to show their audience what they clearly liked and were influenced by.
Sublime is a great band.

The sublime view of the sunset is beatiful.
