Ska music has been deeply ingrained in the punk rock culture since the Clash adopted their rude boy stance near the end of the British punk invasion and the 2-Tone label put ska on the map. Suddenly, punks stopped kicking the crap out of each other long enough to dance. The debut release by Orange County, California's Sublime is a positively infectious record that marries varied styles of dub, reggae, rap, sampling, scratching, and badass dancehall ska with old-school punk overtones. Musicianship on this record is exceptionally tight, featuring Brad Nowell's innovative guitar work and bright, soulful voice. Packed with 40 oz. of rock (21 tracks) including the ultimate pot-smoking anthem "Smoke Two Joints" and the novelty hit "Date Rape." --Gail Worley

5 out of 5 stars If I had to take but one CD to an island..........2007-06-12

This would be the CD. Not only does it rock, but it just makes you want to go to the beach and chill. My favorite tracks are "Waiting For My Ruca", "40 oz. To Freedom" and "We're Only Gonna Die For Our Arrogance" (Bad Religion cover).

Sublime was one of the greatest bands of the ninties, if not the greatest ska band of all time.

5 out of 5 stars Truly fantastic, timeless music.......2007-05-19

What an album!! An awesome debut from an explosive (and extremely short lived) band. This album stands the test of time. Regardless what time of the year it is when this cd comes to play my mood is instantly lifted. One of those rare albums where you don't pick and choose songs. You listen from front to back each time.

The variety of music from all out punk, to ska/reggae is fun and all are technically good. Bud and Eric keep the beat going and Brad (RIP!) comes through with some tasty riffs. When I purchased this album I was in grammar school and Sublime was just starting to get on the air. This is my benchmark album to this day. Honestly, I am huge fan of all their work and the self titled album is great. This album however just has soul. No other way to describe it. Be it cruising in my car or kicking back a couple of beers with my friends this album is often played and warmly receipted by everyone.

For anyone who does not own it or is on the fence; worry not. This album is great. I would go through my personal favorites on the album but, I think at some point and time nearly every song was my number one. Now over a decade later the songs I loved are still awesome and the songs I liked I love.

A must buy!!!

5 out of 5 stars Talk about music.......2007-04-11

I can't ________ believe I waited so long to get this. I have liked Sublime, heard plenty of their songs, hits, and Date Rape, Smoke Two Joints and 40 Oz. To Freedom from this album. But these other songs are just as good. And I will admit, the lesser songs are actually better than thoss three songs (besides Date Rape).

Yeah, this is ________ music, and that's all. It has a lot for an album. Soul, rebellion, funkiness, rythem, alot. This is one of the best albums I have ever heard in a long time. Not as much as Bloodhound Gang, but this actually _________ exceeded my epectations (Cake failed bigtime).

There is not a bad song on this album, just a couple average songs and a crappy song. THe last track is kind of weak, New Trash more like noise (good thing it's only a minute long), and the Hope cover is _______ compared to the great song from The Descendants. Everything else gets two thumbs up.

OF course though, the musicans are what makes this band _______ awesome. Bud Gaugh's drumming plays second to Bradley Nowell in the music. Bradely Nowell is self explainitory, and his voice is awesome. He can actually sing. Eric has got to be one of the msot underrated bassist yet. Listen to his bass guitar on Date Rape.

If you don't have this album, check it out now. I just discovered it and I can't stop listening to it. Sorry, no new Bloodhound Gang either.

ANd cool cover.

3 out of 5 stars Uneven with hints at what's to come.......2007-04-02

A fun, but uneven album. I hear hints of the great work to come on the self-titled album. Ruby Begonias is probably my highlight here. I really admire what Bradley could do when he was on his game, but I find things a little too rough for my tastes on most of this album.

5 out of 5 stars Perfect CD.......2007-01-23

40 Oz. To Freedom is deftinely perfect. This is the best CD I own and I play it all the time. I am gonna keep it short here because I don't feel like typing a big reviw, but this is just amazing. Kicks off with the low Waiting For My Ruca which is abosulely great and dosen't slack off with hit songs like 40 Oz. To Freedom and Smoke Two Joints following up. Sublime just puts out amazing track after amazing track with songs like Don't Push, Date Rape, Scarlet Begonias, D.J.s, and Right Back just to name a few. Recomnedded to anyone.

    5 out of 5 stars I actually like almost every single song!.......2001-12-21

    I've had this CD for about 3 months now and cannot stop listening to it! I absolutely love it! It's better than their CD titled "Sublime," and it has great tracks. A lot of songs do sound similar, especially at first, but once I began listening to it more and more, I grew to love it more and more!

    5 out of 5 stars You can't call yourself a music fan if you don't own this CD.......1999-06-04

    This CD has one song that you can't get anywhere else, and that's the Original Ebin recording, and let me tell you, it's totally worth it. 40 Oz blew me away at a time when all the grunge music was overspilling from the radio. This CD is one of the best all time. There is something it lacks. As it was picked up by the major label and released nationally, they took a song off - Get Out! For some reason they threw on a different version on "Second-hand Smoke". If you own 40 OZ., this CD is still worth getting because of Ebin, the other extras you can pick up amongst Second-Hand Smoke and other "throw-it-together" CDs they've released since the passing of Mr. Nowell. It would be the perfect CD if it still had the original Get Out! version because I think that's actually one of the best displays of Brad's heartfelt voice out of all those CDs. But still all-in-all, this CD is well worth the investment.
