[1996] Sublime
Sublime was a band from Long Beach, California. They played from about 1989 til 1996 when their singer Bradley Nowell died of a heroin overdose. They mixed punk, reggae, dub, hip-hop and who knows what else in their music in this sorta commercial american (read: likable on first listening) style, but I would be doing them wrong if I said they were commercial cos a lot of topics they covered in their songs were all but commercial. Stuff they are dealing with on this album (which is their third and the last studio one) ranges from riots, poverty, love, hate, rape, prostitution, drug use, living in general, etc... Personally, I quite like Sublime, I have a fond memory of a summer spent in a cloud of ganja smoke, just chilling and listening to them.
After Bradley's death the rest of the guys had a band called Long Beach Dub Allstars which was a bit too mainstream (for example: songs with Gwen Stefani of No Doubt and Will.I.Am of Black Eyed Peas) sounding for my taste.
Well, check the links bellow for more info about Sublime and just try to enjoy the music and keep your mind open, fuck divisions, and also never use heroin, as you can see from Bradley Nowell's example (and many more before and after him) you will most probably die! Smoke spliffs, it's better, only your memory is at risk of dying, and if you listen to Mark Twain who in 1894 said: “If you tell the truth you don't have to remember anything.” you can only ask yourself "Who needs memory anyway?".
