311's Albums

"It has come to our attention that there is a very unsettling rumor circulating regarding the name of our band '311.' We have been told that certain white supremacist groups use the numbers 311 to represent KKK. This is a most unfortunate coincidence and one that is extremely disturbing to us. We would like to state for the record that this is completely at odds with our personal beliefs. We believe the only people worth hating are organized haters like the KKK. Anyone familiar with our lyrics knows how we feel. Our lyrics make a strong stand against racism and a strong stand for positivity &unity. The name of our band originally comes from an Omaha police citation for indecent exposure. We thought it was funny at the time. Now our name simply means - five friends from Omaha making music. Music that stands for peace and unity."

Sincerely,
311

If you haven't been to 311's official page, 311music.com, lately, I recommend you visit it sometime. They have been updating it for a long time and it's one of the best sites around now. Check it out for video, pictures, news, lyrics, and a great store.

The new album, Soundsystem, is what I expected, if not more. It's got 13 great songs including 'Come Original' and 'Large in the Margin.' If I had to choose a favorite track, it would probably be either 'Flowing,' 'Sever,' or 'Can't Fade Me.' This album definitely stacks up to their previous albums, and was worth waiting for.

I tabbed out the guitar part for 'Come Original' and put it up. Get it here.
