Title: Don't take them so seriously, they're just a fun band
Review: 311 takes the best ingredients from a variety of different genres, makes it their own, writes some terrifically catchy songs and then laughs all the way to the bank.They have the crunch of hard rock and grunge, the dueling vocalists (a singer and rapper) ala Linkin Park that invokes hip hop, the virtuostic bass ( I love their bassist P -Nut) eliciting a dub feel, and the melody of a pop group. Their singer has matinee good looks and is an entertaining front man (explaining why they are a powerful concert draw). Put it all together and it should be a no surprise why this group is so successful.Anybody that is a hard core fan of rock will think of them a sell out, of hip hop thinking theoir posers and of reggae thinking they don't measure up to par. You know what? It's just music and it shouldn't be taken so seriously.This is fun, party music and never gets old. There is a nice cross section of their hits.
Is the review positive or negative?
