Classic Album Review: Sublime | Greatest Hits

This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):

 


This might be the only 30-minute best-of album in existence that still manages to be more than 20 minutes too long.

If you want to hear What I Got, Wrong Way and Santeria, go buy Sublime’s self-titled 1996 disc, released shortly before singer Bradley Nowell fatally OD’d. If you want to support musical necrophilia, well, go buy one of the 600 or so Jimi Hendrix posthumous releases. At least you might still be listening to it a few years from now — unlike this.
