The group disbanded after Bradley Nowell's death from a heart attack. heroin overdose but reformed with singer Rome Ramirez in 2009. Shortly afterwards, Nowell's family threatened legal action, and a California judge subsequently ruled that the band could not use the Sublime name with their new line-up.
