}} ''Yours Truly'' is the debut album by rock group Sublime with Rome, which was released on July 12, 2011. It is the first album since the original Sublime disbanded in 1996, due to lead singer and guitarist Bradley Nowell's death. According to the liner notes, the album is dedicated to him. After the break up, its surviving members Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh reformed Sublime in 2009 almost by accident, with Rome Ramirez filling in for Nowell. However, the group were unable to use the name Sublime for legal reasons, which resulted in the birth of Sublime with Rome. After embarking on their first US tour in 2010, Sublime with Rome signed with the record label Fueled by Ramen and went to work on its first full-length studio album. Guitarist Paul Leary of Butthole Surfers, who co-produced Sublime's eponymous final album, produced it. ''Yours Truly'' met with critical acclaim at the time of its release and initially received positive reviews. "Panic" was released as the album's first single and it was successful, reaching No. 4 on ''Billboards Alternative Songs and cracking the top 10 on the Rock Songs chart. "Lovers Rock" and "Take It or Leave It" were also released as singles. As of December 2011, ''Yours Truly'' is the only Sublime with Rome album recorded with co-founder Bud Gaugh, who has since left the band. ==Background and history== Sublime broke up immediately after Nowell died from a drug overdose on May 25, 1996. After the break up, Wilson and Gaugh resurfaced in the band Long Beach Dub Allstars, releasing two albums and then splitting up in 2002. After Long Beach Dub Allstars, Wilson went on to form Long Beach Shortbus, while Gaugh went on to form Eyes Adrift and Volcano (both of which featured Meat Puppets guitarist/vocalist Curt Kirkwood). In February 2009, Gaugh and Wilson reunited for a show in Nevada and called themselves Sublime. They were joined by a new singer-guitarist whose identity was not announced; on March 1, 2009, Gaugh confirmed this was then-20-year-old Northern California native Rome Ramirez, who had previously collaborated with Wilson on RAWsession where he played Sublime songs such a "Saw Red" and "Boss DJ".〔(Del Mar & Sublime ).

The festival also featured performances from Kottonmouth Kings, Slipknot, Deftones, Bad Brains and Pennywise.〔(Sublime To Reunite For Cypress Hill's Smokeout Fest ).
