Title: rockin', but not as much soul
Product review: ever since music i have been a *huge* 311 fan. i think their sound is incredibly innovative. this album has less of the cool, loose grooves that the earlier stuff had, though. less of Hexum's smooth raps. some of the melodies almost border on corny, too (the chorus on flowing sounds like green day. gag.). there are definitely some fantastic bits on this disk (the eons riff, the bad brains cover, i particularly dig the sexton and mahoney tunes), and i'm glad i bought it, but i don't think there's as much soul in this album as there was in music and grassroots. hey, but I expect to be absolutely blown away when it comes to 311.
