Poll question: 311 fans - best album
Edited on Sun Mar-14-04 09:41 PM by elad
When I first heard the band 311 I thought they sucked. I hated it. I spent the next 4 years continuing the think they sucked, until someone opened my eyes and I really listened, starting with their early works. It wasn't long before I realized that Hexum/Sexton are nothing short of melodic geniuses.

I'm a big fan of Music and Grassroots, and think some of their unreleased tracks are some of their best. I've never jumped on the "you sold out" bandwagon post blue album, but I do agree that something changed after that, but I think the change came after Transistor. Despite that, 311 still comes out, each album, with some of the funkiest music I've ever heard.

So, which album is their best? :)

1. I liked 311 the first time I heard them
back when they were called Duran Duran. :-)

2. I liked the first one.
Grassroots also had good stuff.
Downhill from there, though the live one's decent.
"Beautiful Disaster" makes it onto many a mix, though.
