Zack Hexum - Overground: What Happens Now?

Sorry if this is in the wrong section. I was wondering if anyone had Zack Hexum's second album and could upload it to the audio section of TB. I know "Introducing..." is there. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I agree. It seems their albums have been hit or miss since then.

No worries, man. That's how they do it as far as I know. Either one of the band members said it in an interview, or I think they explain that on the 311 Day 2004 DVD.

Re: OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

Go to a 311 show and watch closely, none of those songs have anybody playing a keyboard, ever. isn't that the point of rockband? To play the live instruments I am all about live instruments, but either Nick, the producer, or a studio musician added the keyboards to the recording. When 311 plays liv...

Even though Nick likes BEP, maybe he didn't think Nicole was a good fit for them. And if she did, the Pussycat Dolls would have never came to be.

Re: God forbid...

I agree with the OP. ETSD 3 is long overdue. As I understand, P-Nut has a lot of footage from the DTOM sessions that has never been released. There are some B-Sides from the past few albums that have not been released yet: "Time Heals All Wounds" from DTOM, "A Week of Saturdays" ...

Re: New songs that sound like older songs

I think besides "Rock On" sounding Transistor-like, the slow, heavy rap-rock style and the lyrics remind me of "Firewater".

Re: When I listen to "Count Me In"...

It is plain and simple shitty bubblegum pop. It sounds like something my 6 year old daughter might listen to. I see where you're coming from. probably one of 311's gayest songs. "Give me a pen and a pad and i trounce. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" LOL I knew someone would say t...

I get a happy rush like I want to pet puppies and hug babies and all that, especially after Tim's fast little riff in the verse and Nick's "couldn't make up my mind". Yeah lol :P jk but it's hard not to smile while listening to it. How do you feel about the song? inb4 "but what about ...

Re: My take on newer stuff (downfall)

Did he just say "come original" was the best song by 311? I haven't had enough coffee yet I think it is, or to rephrase, it's one of my favorite 311 songs of all time. I loved it when I first saw the music video on MTV in August 1999 or so and I still love it just as much 13 years later. ...

Re: New songs that sound like older songs

Tim's solo in Rock on sounds like I've been working on the railroad............ that song is very old Also, Tim's solo in "Thrive Not Sink" is verbatim "Heart and Soul" or whatever that song is on the piano that everyone knows how to play. I'm pretty sure that was intentional on...
