Chi ĆØ 311
Although 311 are closely associated with the ā90s rap-rock movement, the band elude easy categorization. Theyāve toured with ska icons The English Beat, rap legend Snoop Dogg, and feel-good vibe merchants Sublime With Rome, while their best-known singles have diverse influences, including chugging hard rock (āBeautiful Disasterā), playful hip-hop (āAll Mixed Upā), and woozy, tropical psychedelia (āAmberā). Vocalist/guitarist Nick Hexum founded 311 in the late ā80s in Omaha, NB; they released several albums before their fortunes shifted for the better in the early ā90s, after rapper Doug āSAā Martinez joined the group as a full-time member and they landed a record deal. The 1993 single āDo You Rightā was a modest radio success, setting the stage for a triple-platinum 1995 self-titled effort that featured the metallic-flecked āDown,ā a hugely popular song that paired Martinezās easygoing delivery with Hexumās gravelly voice. This eclectic blend of influences has remained a hallmark of 311ās careerāin 2004, the band had a hit with a brooding take on The Cureās already-moody āLove Songāāand has ensured that they retain a massive, loyal fanbase. In fact, March 11 is celebrated by the faithful as ā311 Day,ā and every other year is commemorated with a massive concert, held in rotating places such as Las Vegas and New Orleans.
