I first met Sublime in the Fall of 1988, me and Brad were
students at C.S.U.L.B. The band was the most popular group
on campus and on the way to being the biggest draw in town.
At the time, I was playing in the Ziggens and Brad would
occasionally let us open up. One day I decided I was going
to release all the Ziggens demos I was working on in the
cassette format. I got a sharpie marker and scribbled out
Skunk Records for the xeroxed liner notes. "You can't just
do that" said Brad. Sublime had just completed a 4-song,
16-track demo, so we said, "why not put out your tape on
our new label?" So began a partnership that would propel
the music from keg parties to video music awards and
platinum plaques. "Don't Push" and "Slowride" were f More...

------ About artist/band Sublime
I am a fiftyish woman who rocks to good music. I heard Sublime when my son brought home the CD and I will never be the same. Sure there is other good music, but when I'm working as an officer of the court Sublime is who I quote as it fits:
"and once in awhile you can show me the light in the strangest of places if you look through it right" (Scarlett). When child welfare gets too serious I let loose by singing Brad's music at the top of my lungs and when I'm done all is healed.
Thanks, God, for these boys!
sad ending to it all, but to me when i here this song, it celebrates life because of brads untimely death. so many of us take life for granted. theirs crazy things that we all experience, and some of the choices that we might make, can ties us down or meet our maker sooner, that can crush our unconscious ego. making heavy drug use an casual thing for are every day life.
this is a great song, it shows an cry for help from a musician that so many admirer, giving it a vary human element, that many, in and out of this similar condition can relate to. there's a lot you can do with a dude and guitar!

------ About the song Badfish performed by Sublime
Just another anthem for those of us who know that we drink too much, pour away the struggles of another hard day, shot after shot we tick while the clock continues to drink, knowing this lifestyle cant function forever, but fuck it enjoy it while you can.. get sick of the life? To that i say nevePr
if u really think it matters whether or not its beer or liqour then u must be pretty fucking ignorant, and if anything you figure it would be about a 40 oz of liqour considering it says 'the answers always waiting at the liqour store..'.

You sound more and more stupid as I read on, you're not even worth insulting.
Anyways Sublimes impact on music and our generation can never/will never be forgotten.
So many words come to mind, Tragic, Sad, Depressing. None of them do justice to the feeling we all have about bradley, and his ultimate demise. It's ok though Bro, you're bigger than you ever imagined, and no more heartache. -RH

currently, i'm 14 years old and sublime is my favorite band. i remember waiting for the bus with my sister when i was in about fourth grade and singing Wrong Way with her but never knowing who sang it. Brad, Bud, Eric and Lou-dog have inspired me to follow my heart. When i enter the gates of Heaven, i'll meet Bradley<3 i'm always singing What i Got in school. and getting in mass trouble for writing lyrics to Get Ready on my folders. Sublime lives through my soul and beats in my heart.

if you guys are fed up with arguing about it then why do you continue fueling the argument by saying "Stop arguing?" just starts more shit (and yes i am fueling the arguement too by posting this, but i dont give a fuck. i like arguing). anyway, great song, already knew the lyrics but stumbleupon took me here.

------ About the song Santeria performed by Sublime
Sublime is awesome, Santeria and Garden Grove are my favorite songs by them, and i like this band even though i'm more of a heavy techno, metal, and some hip hop kind of guy. Sublime is more than sublime.

------ About the song Pool Shark performed by Sublime
yeah, its a shame brad is gone. Just goes to show once you get involved with junk like heroin, you're playing with fire, and eventually if you keep it up, you're going to get burned..it's just tragic to lose such an amazingly gifted and talented man as him. He could have gone places. but now he's dead, sublime could never be the same without him, and without that sublime sound kickin around, ska's dead..Wonder if the world would be different if we could go back in time and save such deep and influential artists like brad,kurt cobaine, and tupac shakur.

look, you obviously wouldn't be looking up the lyrics to this song if you didn't like it. so who cares who sang it, sublimes great, and I'm sure citizen king is too. so don't worry about it, smoke some weed, lay back and enjoy the song.

------ About the song Pool Shark performed by Sublime
This song, is absolutely amazing and has really shaped my life.. In the live version, it shows so much pain.. It really hurts my heart. His swooning of every word, makes me shiver. All of sublime's songs give off this message- a message that i use everyday. Brad was trying so hard to get away, but his addiction swallowed him whole.
thirteen years today.
rest in peace bradley nowell, i miss you to death.

its tragic that the world is so cruel and that it lost a great person like brad nowell. i know i remember him everyday when i'm driving down the road, listening to garden grove and singing all the words at the top of my lungs, and taking a bowl hit for him. rest in peace.

I'm a 19 yr old girl from Boston, my number one favorite band is Sublime. When i was just 11 years old i remember watching MTV and seeing a music video for "Wrong Way" ever since then i have been listening to sublime..all i wanted to do was to go to a sublime show, at a young age i found out that Brad Nowell was dead after the fact that i became so enticed by the band's music and lyrics, i was extremely sad. Sublime's sound has tainted a generation into tranquility and harmony. this nostalgic band reminds me of summer nights and times on the beach just everything that can make someone happy.Sublime has brought millions of people together through poetic words which most people can relate to, and some words in which others may never understand. The lyrics behind this group in particular leaves an individual to think more profoundly and question the world that may be drug infested and fighting addiction. Sublime’s story is diverse and heart moving, furthermore each and every album produced has a story of its own. I would have LOVED to meet Brad, Eric, and Bud. I don't know how i would make it through each day without listening to pool shark or robin the hood. All i know is that Sublime is one of the hugest influences in my life.

------ About artist/band Sublime
Since I can remember, the radio has always know the tunes of Sublime. I don't recall a summer without Doin' Time. I've grown up with the image of my band tattooed some where on my body. As a kid, I always wondered why this band would say that I'm on a microphone with Ras MG.
Sublime has been there through all the years, and continue to be heard though out any street of the Long Beach/Orange County area. They're impression is undoubtedly the most known in the Reggae Rock culture through out southern California; not to mention the united states.
It would be irresponsible for us not to preserve the memory of Sublime, and its lead singer Brad Nowell.
I went to Brad's grave today. Some friends of mine took me since they knew I was making a documentary of local bands who carry Brad's influence. The grave was just off the side of the road. The curb was a collage of eulogies where the grave bordered the street. I felt a chill in my body, it was at that time I released Brad Nowell wasn't the lead singer of a band, he was a living legend.
To those who knew Brad, I give you my word that I will carry on his legacy.
Thanks for the good times Brad

------ About the song New Song performed by Sublime
some say its about his use of herion. Bradley Nowell fought against his addiction for years before it took his life away. the track "Pawn Shop" describes his struggle with herion, how he'd sell his guitars to local pawn shops to buy drugs. Nowell once said he used the drugs to find creativity in his music in search for a major label. Rest In Peace pal.
