Happy 3/11 Day!

Just wanted to wish my friends on Drowned in Sound a Happy 3/11 Day. Fuck the bullshit, let’s listen to our boys today.

I’d recommend it. It feels so good.

Nearly picked up a CD copy of Soundsystem in a charity shop earlier today but didn’t. Should have checked the date.

I don’t know how to process SA’s appearance in this video. Where has the time gone? I’m super depressed now, thank you @jamos.

(not saying he looks bad, it’s just jarring and has destroyed my perception of time)

Good thing there’s 311 to cheer me up

Can’t believe it’s November already.
Bloody hell.
It’s like Wyclef was never away.

Or any of them…as I haven’t “looked” at any member of this band since the 90s.

Alright I’ll see if I can squeeze in any 311, gotta make sure I’m solid on my ML pick first.

I’d suggest picking Silver if I hadn’t just played it in the Christmas league.

Those sudden low guitars, Nick’s monster verse, SA’s section over the spiraling riff…perfection!

they look great! picked all the most basic 311 tracks but they sound good to me

I’m giving it to Transistor because what a statement, but S/T is a relentless and perfect 40 minutes. An absolute blast. Maybe I should have made the poll a Pick 2.

edit: I’ve made the poll pick 2, vote again!

gotta go s/t but transistor is the one i listen to the most songs from nowadaways. also beyond the grey sky prob my fav song of theirs now

Evolver is super underrated. It has a couple of stinkers on it but it’s overall a really nice album. Don’t Dwell - Other Side of Things - Sometimes Jacks Rule the Realm is a huge ending sequence.

Not sure how many people know they have this in them:
