Sublime的三位成员——主唱兼吉他手Nowell,贝司手Eric Wilson,鼓手Bud Gaugh——
1988年7月4日在小长滩俱乐部首次演出(引发了臭名昭著的Peninsula Riot)。然而,1996年5月25日,乐队的吉他手兼主唱Nowell,因过量吸食海洛因在旧金山一家旅馆的房间里去世。乐队已然崩溃,但仍按原计划在七月发行了他们的第三张专辑。由于电台轮流强力放送What I Got,专辑成为1996年的黄金唱片。Sublime的传奇仍然在继续,Wilson和Gaugh成立了一个新乐队Long Beach Dub Allstars。

Following the 1996 heroin overdose of Sublime frontman Brad Nowell, surviving bassist Eric Wilson and drummer Bud Gaugh formed the Long Beach Dub Allstars with singer Opie Ortiz, guitarists RAS-1 and Miguel, keyboardist Jack Maness, keyboardist Isaiah Owens, saxophonists Todd Foreman and Tim Wu, and DJ Marshall Goodman. After appearing on a series of compilations and tribute albums, the group issued its full-length debut Right Back on DreamWorks in the fall of 1999.
