	• Manufacturer: AEC • SKU: 9228120 • UPC: 886919930221 • Shipping: $1.16 • Description: 311: Nicholas Hexum (vocals, guitar); Count SA Martinez (vocals, scratches); Timothy J. Mahoney (guitar); P. Nut (bass); Chad Sexton (drums, percussion). Engineers: Ron Saint Germain, Scott Ralston. All music written by members of 311. All lyrics written by Nicholas Hexum and SA Martinez except "Purpose," "Loco" and "Don't Stay Home" (Nicholas Hexum). 311 is what happens when a group of Midwestern youths discover funk, rap and reggae, add it to their acknowledged first love, punk-fueled metal, and blend it all together in a musical Cuisinart. On their self-titled, third album, this Omaha-bred, Los Angeles-based quintet flash their well-rehearsed rock and roll b-boy stance, bypassing both the punk-funk glam of the Red Hot Chili Peppers and the agit-rap railings of Rage Against The Machine. They combine varied genre-happy grooves with messages that owe little to hip-hop's urban wail, and everything to a comfortable middle-class upbringing. It's apparent that the band's two vocalists/lyricists, Nicholas Hexum and SA Martinez, have learned their rap aesthetic lessons well. They boast of their skills ("We are self-made, check the technique") and unusual backgrounds ("Me a rude boy from Omaha, Nebraska"), while running their list of name-checks the width of pop culture's canvas (Walter Middy, Son Of Sam, Edie Brickell's "What I Am," among others). Yet they're also aware that these long-standing hip-hop methods are wearing thin--"I use a simile lightly cause that s**t's played/The common way most rhymes are made," they say on "Jackolantern's Weather"--and that a new way to check the rhyme is required. So 311 turn to the sounds of Jamaica to lift themselves above the common ground. Their metallic reggae freely appropriates riddims (by way of P. Nut's rocksteady bass lines), melodies ("All Mixed Up," for instance, incorporates the flow of Tenor Saw's smash, "Ring The Alarm") and lyrics (dancehall cliches can be found on nearly every track), without giving in wholly to the island vibe. And when the blend of styles is perfectly balanced--as it is on the put-down of angst-ridden alterna-rockers, "Misdirected Hostility"--311 really do sound as unique as advertised. Personnel: Nicholas Hexum (vocals, guitar); Count Sa (vocals, scratches); Tim Mahoney (guitar); Chad Sexton (drums, percussion). Audio Mixers: Ron Saint Germain; Scott Ralston. Recording information: NRG Studios. When an established band self-titles a record, as 311 does its 1995 third release, it tends to mean a band is, well, quite pleased with said work. On 311, the Omaha band have honed its blend of funk, reggae, rap, and punk into a perfect playful pop blend. There's a fun-loving sweetness to the whole affair, as on the raucous, autobiographical "Hive," which swaggeringly references both Rob Base and the band's own flaws. Nick Hexum and S.A. Martinez trade toasts with acrobatic timing and joy so that, even on a solemn tune like the band's modern rock chart-topper "Down," there's a...

The day after Thanksgiving is known as Black Friday because for many retailers it was the day they went from being in the red to being in the black when they became profitable for the year. It is also the official beginning of the holiday shopping season, and Black Friday has become known for some of the best bargains, discounts and deals of the entire year! Everyone has watched stampeding crowds on the local news or diehard bargain hunters camping out overnight so they can be among the first to grab limited black friday specials at their favorite local retailers... However, if you prefer doing your holiday discount shopping from the warm and cozy comfort of home, then Cyber Monday was designed with you in mind! Online retailers spotted the Black Friday frenzy sweeping across the country as it took over brick and mortar locations - rather than compete for your black friday attention, they concocted a day that is all their own and named it Cyber Monday! The Monday after Thanksgiving is when your favorite online stores slash prices and offer their very best prices to help usher in the online holiday shopping season! That means big savings for you whether you choose to brave the local crowds on Black Friday or avoid the madness by browsing online during Cyber Monday Sales! Not to worry - the Friday and Monday after Thanksgiving might get the most attention for discount holiday shopping, but if you procrastinate beyond that magical bargain hunting window it doesn't mean you will be completely left out... In fact, this promises to be an exceptionally consumer-friendly holiday shopping season with sales, coupons and discounts extending far beyond Black Friday and Cyber Monday and allowing you to find the best prices on holiday gifts until the very last minute! Hoping to avoid discount shopping withdrawal? Even after Christmas and Hanukkah have come and gone, you'll still have After Holiday Specials to help usher in the New Year!
