Wednesday, July 20th, 2011

Even though it's over 100 degrees pretty much all over the USA and Mother Nature is serving up heat strokes like ice cream cones, surprisingly some people out there still aren't in that summer mood. Well there is a way to relieve that feeling. The new 311 album, Universal Pulse, is out now and you can download it off of iTunes so you don't have to suffer from melanoma as soon… Read More

311 says no ballads are on Universal Pulse

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

Good news, 311 fans! The band told Billboard that the new album, Universal Pulse, "doesn't have any ballads." Isn't that awes....wait a second. Didn't Foo Fighters say the same thing before their album came out to help build hype for Wasting Light? Looks like Nick… Read More

Listen: 311 – “Sunset in July”

Another new track?! Man, this Friday is chock full of new tunes. This time it's the 311 boys from Omaha, Nebraska bringing the brand new stylee with their new single, "Sunset in July," from the forthcoming album, Universal Pulse.
Is this track going to fall under the "classic 311" tab with songs like "Creatures," "Down" and "All Mixed Up"? Probably not. Will the song get you in the mood for summer? Depends on how much you're craving the summer weather. Either way,… Read More

311 releasing new album, Universal Pulse, July 14

Friday, May 27th, 2011

The summer unofficially kicks off this weekend and 311 has heard the call. Which is why, on July 14th, they're releasing their newest album, Universal Pulse. Up top is the album cover which is a bit...ambitious? Absurd? Trippy! That's the word I'm looking for because apparently, according to this Omaha band, the universal pulse involves a ram's head.
The first single, "Sunset in July," will be available to download on… Read More

The Lollapalooza festival isn't that far away. It takes place on April 2-3 and...it's in Chile? Well that's certainly nowhere near Chicago.
Lollapalooza Chile, which is an offshoot of Perry Farrell's Windy City-based summer music festival, is being held for the first time in Santiago and the line up is quite stellar (via CoS).… Read More

311 and The Offspring team up for the summer

Monday, March 29th, 2010

If you were looking for a summer concert where you could lounge in the sun, drink beer and smoke weed at...then I suggest going to any concert this summer. But, to be a bit more specific, you may want to hit up a 311 show.
The Omaha Stylee crew are going on tour this summer and they're bringing Dexter Holland and The Offspring with them in what they've dubbed the "Unity Tour". The band Pepper will also tag along for this outing (via CoS).… Read More
