Sublime - 40 Oz. to Freedom (1992)

40oz. to Freedom received mixed critical reviews upon its first release, but is now generally approved as a sincere record, with many spots of brilliance and ingenuity. 40oz. to Freedom is one of the most popular albums released in the third-wave of Ska. Its sound blended various forms of Jamaican music, including ska (Date Rape), rocksteady ("5446 That's My Number"), roots reegae and dub ("Let's Go Get Stoned", "D.J.s") with British and American hardcore punk ("New Thrash", "Hope"), hiphop ("Scarlet Begonias") and folk music ("Rivers of Babylon").
