Re: DTOM (I hear ya, Soundboy)
Don't mean to post another topic but I've tried about 6 times to post a reply (even restarted my browser) and it keeps telling me my comment is empty. =P on you flux.Anyway, I totally agree that DTOM is an underrated album.I love this CD. I bought it when it came out and had it in my work's stereo player for about 5 months and jammed all day. SA really shines to me in Speak Easy and Getting Through To Her, Waiting has a great island-funk to it that makes it real original,and I love Long For The Flowers, Whiskey & Wine and There's Always An Excuse. Although Solar Flare was one of the only songs that really had me jumpin' and brought me back to their older stuff, all the songs are groovable; the album has a great mellow vibe to it and is definitely listen-through material.Then again to me, all 311 is poetry. I can't help but love 'em. <3

    def underrated, it's pretty solid, and much easier to listen to over and over than some of their other records. It's my favorite CD to hear P-Nut on as well...pretty classic if you ask me.

    I'm always one that defends DTOM also. But, I gotta say, I can kinda see where people are comin from with the album. Don't get me wrong, I like it and I do not hate on the album by any means. But now that it's been out a few years I find myself less and less into it in comparison to the other albums. I still listen to it, but after it's all sank in I def can say it's not quite as enjoyable as most other 311 albums as a whole. Some songs on there that I think are super dope are def the song DTOM itself, Speakeasy, and It's Getting Ok Now. I never understood why all the hate on "Waiting"...it may not be your typical 311 song but I thought it was really well done. But the album, as whole, I do not believe has the same overall "great album" vibe as say Transistor or even Evolver. I hope this has made sense, I"ve been taking bong rips during all of this

    very well said. i just think some others who consider it at the bottom of the list might just need one more listen through to open some doors.
