Album Notes
311: Nick Hexum (vocals, guitar); SA Martinez (vocals); Tim Mahoney (guitar); P-Nut (bass guitar); Chad Sexton (drums).
With its signature hybrid sound, 311 spawned scores of imitators and emerged as one of the best-loved and most enduring groups on the rap-metal scene. The band freely combines not only hip-hop and heavy metal, but liberal doses of reggae, funk, dub, Beach Boys-style harmonies, and Phish-like jam-band music. The Nebraska-based quintet steers clear of the sharp edges and angst-laden lyrics of contemporaries Limp Bizkit and Rage Against the Machine in favor of an all-inclusive, celebratory vibe. Starting with the Chili Peppers-esque punk-funk workout "Down" and progressing through the trippy Caribbean-tinged "Amber" to the surf/ska-influenced "Do You Right," GREATEST HITS '93-'03 comes as advertised, collecting all of the band's favorites into one non-stop party package.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 - With their reggae inflections and positive vibrations, road warriors 311 have always been clearly set apart from the angsty rap-rock pack.
