A Review of 311's Music Album
311 is a band that had their fair share of ups and downs. When they started in the music scene, they have already experienced some troubles with regards to the band's members and were even on the verge of destitution. But through it all, the band has remained dedicated to their music.
Each one of their albums are by-products of their extensive touring of the United States and other countries as well. They worked hard to promote their songs which ranged from alternative to rap to funk to heavy metal.
Music, their first album was released in 1993. Despite being released more than ten years ago, the album still attracts attention from music fans. The single Do You Right received good airplay. It reached the number 27 spot on the Billboard Modern Rock Charts. But despite this, the album failed to sell as much as it should be.
For most people, a successful song or album is based on how well they do in the sales department or if they constant chart-toppers. Sometimes, it doesn't even have to reach gold or platinum status or receive recognition from different award-giving bodies.
Success of a song or record is relative. It doesn't have to always be at the top of the charts to be truly considered successful. Personally, it doesn't matter if a record rules the airwaves or not, it's the quality of the songs. A perfect example is 311's Music.
This album is a compilation of all their earlier LPs. Songs in this album such as Do You Right, Feels So Good, and Fat Chance have been widely popular. These songs are amazing, and so is the album as a whole. These songs are played widely in the band's shows and almost always bring the house down.
When you listen to the album, you will notice a mix of relaxing tunes and upbeat, loud songs, the kind that will make you want to get up and groove to the music. The album's songs clearly don't disappoint. The band was able to successfully mix different tunes that will appeal even to non-rock fans. Nick Hexum, Tim Mahoney, Chad Sexton, and SA Martinez were great in their respective roles. Their combined efforts gave way to the birth of a very great-sounding record that will surely appeal to all fans and music lovers.
Insert 311's Music in your CD players and don't take it out. You can listen to it for months without getting tired of it. That is how great the CD is. This proves that a record doesn't have to be the hottest thing in the music scene to be considered a success. With the right team of talented musicians, you can. - 18780
