steventangent Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 311, as far as I can tell, doesn't really pretend to be anything other than lame music for suburban white frat boys to get stoned with. If only the same could be said for all the pretentious ass frontmen from also-ran, vaguely emo-y "punk" bands that bust out acoustic guitars and pretend to be folk singers...you know, the ones people here call "amazing."* nah, this board hit it's lows a long ass time ago. *there are notable exceptions to this critique.

kirbypuckett Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 At a bar last night they had on one of those music channels that show facts and while 311's "Down" was playing it said that their first show was opening for Fugazi. Mind blown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. Don't know why people get so upset over 311. It's not like the 311 threads have 20+ pages of people bitching whining and moaning "WHER R MY VINYLZ?!" crying over the value of represses, and claiming Hot Topic is a label. So 311 threads are lower than this? http://www.vinylcollective.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=43603&page=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexH. Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 No one said their fans are worse people. But their music is far, far worse than most music. Let's be real. This is a real lyric: We're dope kid change like a chameleon and the channel whenever that wack show real world is on. Also, it's been a while since anyone on this board has called any ex-punk frontman's shitty acoustic-guy alt-country project "amazing", unless I'm just scanning right past those threads because I have no idea who they are.

selfreliable Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 So is Incubus worse than 311 to people here? To me they are the same shitty band. Didnt know if others share that opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kriss Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Incubus is pretty bad, but I'm hesitant to say they're 311 level bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steventangent Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 The saddest part is that both bands are made up of super talented dudes. Making insufferable music., ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjustinxschwierx Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 i like the first few incubus records, I've seen 311 twice live at festivals and have always been entertaining to watch and you know at lot of their hits.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madtired Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 The saddest part is that both bands are made up of super talented dudes. This. I'd love if someone else took over writing lyrics for 311. The music has always been good--lyrics, not so much. Incubus used to be a great band..that wrote a few hits aimed at 14 year old girls to help sell records. Now they only write songs aimed at 14 year old girls.
