and every time someone puts on Sublime, pretty much every person starts feeling the vibe and enjoying the music together. Many times I have been at various locations such as bars, beaches, pools, house parties, car rides, etc. To add to that aspect, I really appreciate how many different types of people react to Sublime being played. Something else unique to Sublime in the terms of reggae is how reggae is usually attributed to stoner culture and although Sublime is as well, they also have the ability to transcend that stereotype. I too, am a fan of reggae, but I will admit that it is a very “time and place” type of genre, whereas Sublime doesn’t seem to fit into that same category. I also have noticed that Sublime usually gets categorized as just a reggae band, but their range far exceeds that of most reggae bands. All of these genres alone are wonderful genres for summer and spending time with friends, but to be able to perfectly encompass all of those genres is an impressive feat. One of the main reasons I believe this is because I think that Sublime allowed themselves to be the perfect mix of rock, punk rock, reggae, hip-hop, and ska. I know that it would be easy to say that my continuous love for Sublime during the summer is purely based around the nostalgia of my college years on the coast, but I know that isn’t the case. However, I want to talk about the complete opposite how no matter what, a summer isn’t complete without a bit of Sublime thrown into the mix. Now I am fully aware that listening to Sublime during the summer isn’t some random hot take that no one has ever done before, trust me, that isn’t the point here. So when thinking of my listening habits this summer, I started to realize that no matter what, I always end up including Sublime in my rotation of summer songs. But something I have enjoyed keeping track of is how the newer discoveries during certain seasons or times in my life can actually bring me back to that time or place later on. As a music lover, I am constantly listening to music that includes a mix of old favorites and new finds. If you are confused on what I mean by that, allow me to dig a bit deeper into my listening habits. ![]() Now that it is mid-July and we are officially in the thick of summer, I started to really think about what type of music has been unofficially becoming the sound track to my summer 2021.
