Can we talk about how awesome they are? P-Nut is one of my favorite bassist of all time. Very unique sound.

Couple of my favorite songs:
Do You Right

Speak Easy

Large in the Margin

P-Nut and Sexton make up one of the greatest rhythm sections of their generation. You can hate on 311 all you want but trying to deny that is flat out lying to yourself. In true 311 fan style I thought they were the greatest band ever up until about my senior year of high school. Now I only break out the 311 a few times a year.

P-Nut's Coda on Sometimes Jacks Rule The Realm was exactly 1/2 the reason I picked up a bass guitar, the other half was Black Sabbath's Hand of Doom. I chose the dark side and have never looked back.

they're tight fo sho. that mexican rapper they have is one feisty dude, and he's got some pretty dope rhymes too:

Weapons not food
not homes, not shoes
Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal I
walk tha corner to tha rubble
that used to be a library, line up to tha mind cemetary now!
What we don't know keeps tha contracts alive an movin'
They don't gotta burn tha books they just remove 'em
While arms warehouses fill as quick as tha cells
Rally round tha family
pockets full of shells!

I can honestly say I never gave them a shot and never really want to. I had a friend who would constantly ruin movies and bands for me before seeing/hearing because he was CONSTANTLY quoting and singing their crap in the most annoying way possible. Feel confident that I never missed out on anything.

i get it. it's frowned upon to like their radio songs. sorry, not sorry. i still rock grassroots and hybrid theory though. i love the dynamic between the two singers....cuz i'm one step closer to the edge, AND I'M ABOUT TO BREAK!!
