I think these guys deserve their own topic. When I first listened to [i]Up The Bracket[/i] I said to myself "these guys are okay but the Strokes are better.." because that's who they are being compared to. Then the next day, the next spin I said "no, these guys are BETTER than the Strokes." I'm hooked on the album and I just wanted to share my joy. That's it. |

am i serious? After the success of the "311" album (which is now triple Platinum), 311 released a long-form home video called "Enlarged to Show Detail" containing live concert footage, interviews, videos, backstage footage, etc. To make it a unique item, 311 bundled the video with a 5 song EP containing outtakes from the "311" CD. The home video debuted at #1 on Billboards Music Video Sales Chart and is now a Platinum video. After releasing the home video, 311 went back into the studio to record their fourth CD "Transistor." "Transistor" debuted at #4 on the Billboard Top 200 and is now Platinum. 311's 1997 headlining tour in support of the "Transistor" album drew an average of 10,000 people per night in the US. The band also toured Europe, UK, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. In September of 1998, 311 re-issued some old material on the "Omaha Session" EP. The EP contains 9 songs from the bands 1989-1991 independent releases ("Dammit," "Hydroponic" and "Unity"). In November of 1998, 311 released "311 Live" – a collection of live recordings from the 1997 US Tour. In October of 1999, 311 released their fifth CD "Soundsystem" which debuted at #9 and the band toured extensively in the US and Japan. In 2000, the band purchased a recording studio in North Hollywood. After making some renovations and bringing in their own equipment, they renamed it "The Hive" (which is also the name of their fanclub). The studio was active in the 70's / 80's. In 2001, the band released "From Chaos" which debuted at #10 on the Billboard Top 200 Sales Chart. 311 toured extensively throughout the U.S. and Europe in support of "From Chaos." The first single "You Wouldn't Believe" reached #7 on the Billboard Modern Rock Chart. The second single "I'll Be Here Awhile" reached #15 on the Billboard Modern Rock Chart. The single "Amber" reached #10 on the Billboard Modern Rock Chart and #30 on the Billboard Modern AC Chart. The album is certified Gold. In 2003 the band recorded an |

Any talk of 311 should result in an automatic ban. Especially for you. |

haha " so middle school" that's so funny, and yet true. But I wasnt a poser that liked whatever my fellow school turds liked, I got into them after middle school, so its cool. |

i dont give a shit about 311 either. i do care about pictures of starving african children though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have heard two 311 songs, and I really liked them... fuck you if you got a problem with that! now, the libertines, well I heard one song by them and it sounded like the most amateur piece of shit I've ever heard... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i will listen to the Libertines when they quit sucking as much as the Strokes. but i supposed if you're going to ripoff the Strokes, you will suck like them too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thing is they don't really sound like the Strokes as much as they do say The Clash or even The Jam. No other fans yet, eh? Oh well, I guess I should be happy. I tend to prefer it when other people don't like the music I like. |
