(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.
