More than meh but don’t stand out like the rest. If may grow on me more but 13thġ1 12 and 13 th are all interchangeable. Amber is a great song but not enough to put it any higherĮvolver 10th. The album saw a change in musical style as fewer songs feature rapping in comparison to the bands previous albums. Nothing to say except I enjoy listening to it.įrom chaos 9th. We all know it’s a good album.ĭon’t tread on me 8th. Strong along is one of my favorite to play on my guitar. Sterolithic just had very well written songs that were laid out in a masterful sequence. Plus sunsets in July live is almost a religious experience.Ĥth 311 (blue album). Over the entire span of their career, 311 have managed to create a following that draws in a new generation with just about every album-release. I liked how it sounded underproduced and almost had the production of most bands 1st releases. Review Summary: There's plenty of Good and Great material on Transistor to make it worth your time and money, but there is a considerable chunk of un-refined work performed on this 21 song epic. Transistor is one of the best rock albums ever period, not just one of the best 311 albums.ģrd I really enjoyed (gasp here) universal pulse. I like the songs on UP more than Uplifter, but I feel like the lack of energy from the band and Bob Rock on UP is palpable. So we got Universal Pulse, 8 songs total, no b-sides, underdeveloped/unfinished sounding songs and recordings, and hardly any mention of Bob or his influence in tho whole process. Then the album wasn’t a breakthrough success, Bob was already signed for the next album, but the excitement was gone. Overall, they recorded 18 songs for the Uplifter sessions. Ironic that Uplifter and UP were both Bob Rock, I feel like there was a real excitement from him and the band during the Uplifter album cycle, with Bob appearing in promo videos with them, the band talking up how influential he was during the writing and recording process, and even performing a mash-up of Do You Right, Hive, and Don’t Stay Home on tour (something Metallica starting doing with their songs while working with Bob). That said, I agree that Mosaic, Voyager, and Uplifter are their most overproduced sounding albums. The mixes for Trouble, Rock On, and Time Bomb specifically just lack energy. I think Universal Pulse sounds under-produced, some of the final recordings on the album almost sound like demos imo.
