Shitty Rambo Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 If these buttholes can host a cruise then they can afford to get their next album recorded themselves. deletedunknown, 213041284s, ajismetal and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futures Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 It seems like it's just a preorder thru PledgeMusic? There's no projected goal amount & no album could come out by 3/11 if they were just starting the pledge campaign now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deletedunknown Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Can you really call it self-funded if you're asking for other people to fund it? Duff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpitts Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Can you really call it self-funded if you're asking for other people to fund it? And can you really call it a new album if it sounds exactly like every one of your other albums? laralaurent, TheWindBlower, seamoney and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyhi Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 1 winner will get the GHS bass strings that P-Nut used to record the album. thepunkguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgdesign Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 No incentive to preorder. Nothing special for pledgers that you can't buy cheaper later if you wanted to. mmhmm and Duff 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb412 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Share Posted January 13, 2014 I think the Pledge Music involvement was just their method of doing pre-orders, since the album is already done...as someone said above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hopefully stuff like this starts failing so it goes away. It's not fair to the smaller artist or bands who really can't afford to put out an album that these fart-knockers can come and unintentionally make a joke out of the whole thing.

nick6ten Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I saw this earlier today and thought about it but then saw it was $35 for a new 311 album. $15-$20 and I would have been in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Justin Maheiny Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 because you dont want people to know that youre listening to them? Exactly! Ever since I read the entry on them in Urban Dictionary I've been too embarrassed to admit I love them! http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=311 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planetrakis Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 This band has produced some stunning and groundbreaking LP's, but lately their music has bored me to tears. Gone are the epic flows of SA, gone are the times to throw down. Still great guys though. They'd do better with a kickstarter to repress their s/t! (not my favorite, but would like it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henster311 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Exactly! Ever since I read the entry on them in Urban Dictionary I've been too embarrassed to admit I love them! http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=311 oh thats new, not that creative though...i thought you were gonna show the article about them being associated with KKK. Urb dic that one. This band has produced some stunning and groundbreaking LP's, but lately their music has bored me to tears. Gone are the epic flows of SA, gone are the times to throw down. Still great guys though. They'd do better with a kickstarter to repress their s/t! (not my favorite, but would like it) im with ya, but i wouldnt say bored me to tears. im a freak and love this band. but yeah they have toned it down. its not the same. i was pretty upset when i heard universal pulse only had 8 tracks. ugh and that artwork. haha they are getting old.

It's not fair to the smaller artist or bands who really can't afford to put out an album that these fart-knockers can come and unintentionally make a joke out of the whole thing. I don't think there is any thing here to fail? They don't have a goal as they are not trying to raise money. They have already made the album and they are just using pledge music as a distribution means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
