311 Music - A Music Review

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.

With this record, the band compiled all of their LPs. Some of the songs included in the album are Do You Right, Feels So Good, and Fat Chance. These three tracks have been widely popular because of their amazing quality. The album as a whole is a very good listening experience. These are also constantly played during the band's shows.

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.

In summary, a record doesn't have to rule the airwaves or sell millions of copies to be considered successful. As long as your songs have great quality and people love hearing it, you can call it a success. Just like 311's Music, such things don't matter. It is a great record, something you can play for months in your CD player. There is nothing else to say.

311 Shows Promise With the Release of Music

Despite going through some tough times before they entered the music scene, 311 has managed to keep their heads focused on creating good music. Despite having troubles with their band line up and their struggle against poverty, they were able to see through and come out with great music.

All of their eight albums ranged from alternative to rap to funk to reggae to heavy metal. The success of their albums can be highly attributed to their extensive touring all over the US and other countries to promote their songs.

The band released their first album in 1993. Even though Music was released more than a decade ago, it still commands attention because of its quality. It's single Do You Right got decent airplay and even reached the 27th spot on the Billboard Modern Rock Charts, though it did not propel the album to sell as much as it should.

This is where one can be confused with identifying a successful song, or album for that matter. Usually, we only say a song or record is successful when it is topping the charts and selling like pancakes. When an album reaches a gold or platinum status, then it is considered a success, or when the record brings nods and recognition from different award giving bodies.

What you need to know is that a record's success is relative. A song doesn't have to rule the charts before it can be considered successful. Personally, the success of a record is dependent on how good the songs are. 311's Music is an example.

In this album, 311 compiled all their earlier LPs. Songs like Do You Right, Feels So Good, and Fat Chance, because of their great quality, have all been popular. These songs are widely played in the band's shows.

You can go for months with nothing on your CD players but Music. 311 was able to come out with a great sounding record and managed to captivate their hardcore fans.
