Album Notes Sublime: Brad Nowell (vocals, programming); Eric Wilson (bass); Bud (drums); Miguel, Marshall, Opie, Greg, Kelly. Sublime (Rock): Brad Nowell (vocals, guitar); Eric Wilson (synthesizer, bass guitar); Bud Gaugh (drums). Personnel: Kelly Vargas, Opie Ortiz, Marshall Goodman (drums). Pieced together rather quickly, Robbin' the Hood wasn't really intended to be the follow-up to Sublime's debut, 40 Oz. to Freedom, but what is shocking is how much better the record is than its predecessor. Boasting a wider range of influences -- including elements of reggae and old-school hip-hop -- the record is a loose, infectious blend of styles that rides along on its own sense of energy. Brad Nowell's songwriting might still be at a rudimentary level, but the group sounds more muscular and musical than before, demonstrating that the breakthrough of its sole major-label record, Sublime, wasn't an accident. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine In 2002, MCA released Robbin' the Hood/Sublime, which contained two albums -- Robbin' the Hood (1996, originally released on MCA) and Sublime (1996, also originally on MCA) -- by Sublime on one compact disc. ~ Gregory McIntosh
Editorial Reviews Originally conceived as a mini-album, it soon morphed into something far more interesting and experimental. Kerrang
