Sublime - Sublime (Behind The Cover) 

I was one of those Long haired, pot smoking, beer drinking kids that grew up in and around Long Beach, California.. Seeing Sublime in friends back yard, kegger parties was something I'll never forget. Bradley was drinking a bottle of liquor and handed it to me to have a swig... Those were the days man.

The self titled album is in my top 5 albums of all time for sure. Still love it, it never gets old.

OPIE IS OUR MASTER 🧡💛🧡

This album, without a doubt, helped me navigate through the lowest times of my life... ...and has made some of the best times truly *sublime.* 🧡✌🌞

My brother was a HUGE fan of Sublime. Even predicted he'd die the same way Brad did, except my brother was 24. Sublime always puts me in a good mood. Especially when I'm starting to miss my brother, I put on Sublime and I feel like he's sitting right by me, just chilling, listening to some good music, like we did before he passed. RIP Brad and my brother. 💛🙏🏻

I’ve been listening to Sublime pretty much non stop for the past three months- god bless the Sublime dudes for what they did. This music will last forever and I am grateful to have it.

Sublime is what I play when I’m cruising around down doing errands, just cruising slow in no rush

Thank you dudes SO much for this. Miss you every single day Bradley.

Damn. Jailhouse just gets me some times man. Oh what a sublime mix of emotions 🧡🌞🧡

Much love From Tejas

Summertime in the LBC right where i grew up pine and 16th street 😎

Nobody plays like SUBLIME!!! Everytime I listen to these guys it takes me back to some crazy times. R.I.P. Bradley 🖤🤘

Fuckin awesome!!!

Sick!! What a great video to start off my Friday morning

This was an incredible video. Hats off to people involved.

Always Sublime.

Brasil love Sublime

now i have to add an opie tat to my bucket list.

Thank you !! Im back in the 90's means alot thank you MUCH SUBLIME!!!

Glad I woke up to watch this.

This is the only album I've ever owned that I listened to so many times all the way through I eventually memorized every word to every song on it.

I love this so much!!

This album has meant a lot to me my whole life and it is cool to see the backstory to it all! Much love to the band and we miss you Bradley

Stay Safe. Stay Sublime. 🧡 from 🌞 San Diego

Fukn Rad and well put. Sublime all the time. Thanks for all the years of good Vibez and many more to come . The end n beyond. TIMELESS MUSIC. SUBLIME

I got the "second hand smoke" sun tattooed on my left elbow. I got to meet Opie in passing at a Warped Tour and showed it to him. Something I will never forget 🖤

Sublime did more for me in every aspect of my life than I thought a band or music could ever do… Bradley was and is and always will be a legend to me and so many millions of others, the things that He, Bud and Eric created music that is timeless it’s been 25 years and you can’t turn on Santeria without someone singing along even if that’s the only one they know.. because Sublimes music was able to transcend the barriers of genres and just be something literally anyone and everyone would vibe to. Man I remember being so young and just playing Dave Mirras bmx game just so that I could listen to what I got before my sister bought me the album… they’re music inspired me to write songs and sing everyday with my acoustic guitar in hopes of having a voice like brads and making music everyone could feel… Eric’s bass lines were what inspired me to play bass in my brothers band when I was only 9years old haha and 16 years later I’m still rocking his bass lines… so thank you #Sublime for all the music and Brad you’ll always the biggest music legend in my life cause I wouldn’t be who I am today had it not been for your music.

Awesome history trip!!😃

I tripped for several years with Sublime's music down in the coasts of El Salvador, those for sure were some of "the best days of my life". Brad left us a legacy, now I have passed it down to my kids. We all love Sublime.

Chills all over again

I tried to get ink from Opie once when a two day convention blew thru my town, he was one of the artists doing stuff. This was before the days of FB, just before Myspace jumped off. Ppl were saying that I needed to be like the first person in the door on the first day & maybe... just maybe I could get somethin small by the end of the last day. Yeah, I quickly found out that he was booked solid weeks before hand so, I ended up drawing my own. It worked out great, still the most meaningful tattoo I have to this day. A lot of friends ended up getting it too, even bigger (& better looking) than the one on myself. Nothing wrong with paying homage but if it's for your own band, do it yourself. Def worth it. Cool story & video. Love it, thanks for sharing it man.

This album changed my life! It sent me on another direction. Hard to explain., there’s a lot of power and energy behind this music. I used to look at those pictures inside the album for hours wondering what it was like to live in Long Beach in the 80s. I was 16

Oh yes. Must get my Opie tattoo, ASAP

Opie did my first tattoo years ago when he was at American Beauty. His artwork is so iconic and synonymous with Sublime that he’s like a unofficial member of the band.

Sublime 💪❤️❤️❤️

This is beautiful.

OPIEの口から最初に”日本”が出てくるとこが最高じゃん♬

I LOVE THIS BAND SO MUCH !

Amazing

Sweet story love you and Sublime

Summmmmertimeeeeeee my fav song 💚💚💚💚💚💚

sublime is the perfect chillin out summer time having a party type of music.

Really cool!

What's not said in this video is Self-Titled was originally called "Killin It" but was changed posthumously for obvious reasons. The original album cover picture was the "mobsters picture"(Brad's sitting at a table w/ a cigar and glasses on and Bud and Eric are standing to his side holding a Tommy gun)

I’m 30 years old and I hope they release more content before I’m dead. I live for this stuff 🔥

Opie will sit there and ask you questions and really relate to you while he inks you up Hes a good guy Thats just one of the reasons he's the master...

that was awesome

Gold.

This was amazing!!

I grew up listening to sublime, and where I'm from is just like Cali, Kailua Hawaii. They're apart of my life and I love this video, the art is rad af! One love all of us sublime fans! ❤💛💚

I’d LOVE to have an Opie tat! I mean, who would be better to do my Sublime tat than him?!

Why doesn't this have like 10 million views yet?

I’m feeling a resurgence in reggae and dub. Anyone else?

Thank you. This was so awesome

@TheofficialSublime The thing is, I LOVED Sublime back in the day. I bought the self titled album 3 times in the 90's because someone would steal it, it would break, or wear out. I never really appreciated them until my battle with cancer i'm going through. God, all I gotta do is take my meds, put on 40 Oz to freedom and my cares melt away. I love you guys. Thank you for what you do for me.

From a life long fan - THIS IS AMAZING!!!!

Hola amigos!.I grew up listening this album at all time. Best music album made ever. Greetings from spain!!

I wish they would've released more footage for the anniversary. We know they're just sitting on piles of tapes :/

That's was an Awesome Story

Brad's voice was like a beacon for a lot of people. god i miss it.. but glad his friends annoyed him as much as brought him joy. Cheers!

Wow!

i get so emotional sometimes thinking about brad’s death, he really is my hero and i wish i couldve thanked him. such a great guy

The band name Sublime was made back in 1988, because originally Bradley was in the band "Hogan's Heroes" in 1983. Nothing was discussed with a girlfriend about the band name, that was a lie, and they performed under the name "Hogan's Heroes" until 1984. Hogan's Heroes became inactive after 1984, because Bradley was focused on school (graduating from Woodrow Wilson high school in Long Beach, and attending UC Santa Cruz college) until Bradley dropped out of college in 1988. From 1985-1987, it was when the "Juice Bros." were created, which had no affiliation with Bradley but he supported the band. In 1988 Bradley thought of the name "Sublime" when he attended UC Santa Cruz, and was smart enough to trademark the band name on July 6, 1995. Not even the band members knew he did that, which resulted in them having to change the band's name (court ordered because his father, Jim Nowell, sued the band) which is how "Sublime with" became the band's name in 2009. It's also why the band's logo says "Sublime with" much larger than any other name.

Sublime !!!!! 🖤🙌🏽👽💪🏽

❤️🙌🏼❤️🙌🏼❤️🙌🏼❤️

I had to quit listening to sublime when I quit doing heroin. I was just sitting here thinking of what music to put on before I clean my gfs closet for her, this is perfect 👌

Every surfer had this album at 1 time in their collection. From the day it came out until now. Still kicking it.

We need an undated documentary lol

Awesome

very nice video

Por vida

Great video 📹 👍

I know every word of every song, in order. I know every little mouth sound Bradleys makes. I can air drum every second of the album. I can sing every solo and every guitar lick and of course, MOST IMPORTANTLY, i can air-trumpet the solo from Wrong Way pretty convincingly lol

Yes sir

Very cool

Opie also said he didn't want to put it on his stomach because he was all fat at the time and tattooing through fat is hard.

❤️

fun fact! Opie Ortiz is the same person who is on the cover for Robbin’ The Hood

Rip Brad

Feel

Yall don't get the views this deserves

Watched sublime doc on tubi, as usual a mix of glorifying the tolerance,legendary and craziness of drug addiction with the success of $$$$ equals kids being like, yeah, you man, time and time again, this is whats up, all or nothing, hearing the story of those that survived there addiction does no help to the struggle,

❤🤙🏽🔥👌

Cool video

Funky not a junkie but I know where to get it

I LOVE SUBLIMEEEEE HAHA 👁❤️
