Brian MurphyHOST
Oh, does Sublime count as a...
Markus BoucherHOST
Reggae Friday? You're damn
Brian MurphyHOST
right it does.
Erinn Peet LukesGUEST
There was no bluegrass.
Erinn Peet LukesGUEST
I recall like, you know, I grew up Red Hot Chili Peppers, you know, Sublime, Snoop Dogg, a lot of like ska, punk, stuff like that.
Erinn Peet LukesGUEST
Anytime I heard an acoustic guitar, though, I was like, what's that? I want to do that.
Erinn Peet LukesGUEST
Jack Johnson, me and my family love Jack Johnson.
Josh ModellHOST
Now Jacob Knoll was still an infant when his dad, Bradley Knoll, died at just 28.
Josh ModellHOST
Bradley was the frontman for the Southern California band Sublime, whose music would go on to reach a much wider audience not long after his death.
Josh ModellHOST
The other two members of Sublime continued with a different singer with varying degrees of success, while Jacob Knoll grew up and started making music on his own.
Josh ModellHOST
A couple of years back, Jacob got together with his dad's old bandmates and reignited Sublime again, and the fact that his voice sounds remarkably like his dad's made it a welcome transition for the band's fans.
Josh ModellHOST
This new Sublime recorded an album, which they say will be the band's last, and they tour and play like crazy, including owning their own festival packed with reggae and punk-tinged fellow travelers.
Josh ModellHOST
Those fellow travelers include the other half of today's conversation, Yelawolf, who will play a bunch of shows with Sublime this year, including the band's cruise in November, and a big amphitheater in Alabama later in September.
Josh ModellHOST
There aren't many musicians who can claim collaborations with Ed Sheeran, Eminem, Travis Barker, ASAP Rocky, and Tech N9ne, but this Nashville-based rapper can.
Josh ModellHOST
He's been around for a long time, and has always seemed like a musical seeker.
Bobby SkullfaceHOST
A force of nature.
Bobby SkullfaceHOST
He also, his favorite bands on the planet were Sublime and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Bobby SkullfaceHOST
Interesting.
Bobby SkullfaceHOST
Which you wouldn't think to look at him, but that was what he lived by.
speaker_0HOST
I feel you.
speaker_0HOST
For the white boys out there, it's like people that say Santeria is their favorite Sublime song.
TolbertoHOST
Right, right, right.
TolbertoHOST
You know what I mean? And just overall, when I think about their eyes of watching God and just quote-unquote buffoonish and humorous interpretations of certain caricatures in Black society and just showing the smiling through it all and that the sun shined upon us too, even through the worst oppression.
AdrianHOST
But after I did some research, it got a pass for me.
AdrianHOST
It's Caress Me Down by Sublime.
AdrianHOST
Oh,
ColtonHOST
fuck yeah.
speaker_2SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
actually i don't know
AdrianHOST
You know, and I'm starting to second guess it.
AdrianHOST
Second guessing it now because I'm starting to think of like some of the other lyrics that Sublime had around this time.
AdrianHOST
And there's like the date rape song.
Marc With a CHOST
Krist Novoselic, yes, the bass player for Nirvana, Krist Novoselic came to see one of Curt Kirkwood's solo shows and suggested they form a band.
Marc With a CHOST
They almost had the drummer from Queens of the Stone Age, but Bud Gaugh from Sublime wanted to jam with Curt too, and the guys decided to give it a whirl.
Marc With a CHOST
Curt suggests that Krist can bring in some tunes as well.
Marc With a CHOST
Now, where it all stops being organic? The absolute second any reports of this supergroup surfaced, major labels tripped all over their own ball sacks to sign them.
9 MINS LATER
Marc With a CHOST
Kurt seems to take names pretty seriously.
Marc With a CHOST
The story goes something like this.
Marc With a CHOST
Bud Gaugh grew up as a massive Meat Puppets fan, and Kurt was a big fan of Sublime.
Marc With a CHOST
When Chris Novacelic decided to take off, they didn't want to stop playing together, but decided to change the name, potentially to not seem as if Chris was a disposable entity and to Bud, possibly that the Eyes Adrift name may have been the idea of Novacelic.
Eddie DonaldsonGUEST
I love random.
Kelly PatrickHOST
You saw the original incarnation of the band Sublime.
Kelly PatrickHOST
I
Eddie DonaldsonGUEST
did.
Eddie DonaldsonGUEST
I worked with Jacob for a while.
Eddie DonaldsonGUEST
He did a couple shows for me.
Eddie DonaldsonGUEST
He was not doing the Sublime thing.
Eddie DonaldsonGUEST
He was doing something else that was cool, but I didn't understand why he wasn't leaning into his lineage and his DNA.
BenHOST
And I can't, I'm like, you text me, I'm like, what song is this? I'm like, I got no idea, but then I forgot.
BenHOST
This is a slept on Sublime song for sure.
BenHOST
But like...
HammyTGUEST
Well, I was not slept, honestly.
HammyTGUEST
So I was like, I know these lyrics.
HammyTGUEST
What is this? Yeah.
HammyTGUEST
And I was like, it's either Sublime or it's 311.
HammyTGUEST
Yeah.
Daniel J. VolpeGUEST
... my parents really, it was very weird, um, what my parents kept me from, uh, consuming, I guess you'd say, because I could watch or read anything, but there were certain, like, music that my parents wouldn't let m- let me listen to, and it was really, honestly, it was anything with violence against women.
Daniel J. VolpeGUEST
And like, um, you guys are real into Sublime, I'm sure Rob being from California.
Daniel J. VolpeGUEST
Uh, they were, they had a song called Date Rape-
Rob NelsonHOST
Mm-hmm
