About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

With their debut, 40 Oz. to Freedom, Sublime attempt to have it both ways. The group wants to appeal to alterna-punks, but they want to cut a little deeper and make some sort of social statement, both with their lyrics and their self-consciously eclectic music. Since the group has a knack for combining dancehall reggae with hardcore punk, the music can be nervy and invigorating, but their joyous blend of cultures doesn't fare so well at the lyrical level. No matter how you look at it, "Date Rape" isn't a bold, ironic satire on macho mores -- it's frat rock that's bound to be misinterpreted, especially with its homophobic "I can't take pity on men of his kind, even though he now takes it in the behind" conclusion. Lyrics like that prevent 40 Oz. to Freedom from being the cracking, skanking skatepunk record that it had the potential to be. Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

December 27, 2006: This CD has spun more than any other in my collection. If you don't have it, get it. If you can't afford it, steal it.

July 28, 2006: Every song on this album is a classic. 40 oz. To Freedom, probley one of Sublime's greatest works, simply kicks...All the songs on this album especially We're Only Gonna Die For Our Own Ignorance ,a song by Greg Graffin the singer for Bad Religion, has awesome distortion guitar with a great reggae bass.40 Oz. To Freedom the title song has a great vocals and a musical like feel to it.Waiting For my Ruca a vocally driven song has a low bass line and some cool drums.Smoke Two Joints a reggae classic starts with a clip fom an old movie then in comes the bass with the guitar. Bradley sings all of his vocals with amazing clarity. But the coolest song would probley be Date Rape awesome bass bass,trumpets and a cool reggae pattern. KRS One has dubs at perfect times and amazing acoustic guitar.
