congo rats?
Re: uplifter
Alot of people slam it, but it has some good tunes on it. Too bad some of the best ones were bonus tracks/b-sides (Get Down, Sun Come Through, Simplify, Week of Saturdays) but at least we have them now.$lmjimy311 wrote:Listened to it again the other day for the first time in a while.

Re: uplifter
Yea, it's their worst effort. The B-sides and get down are pretty much the only listenable songs. I actually really really like the BSIDES and have them on regular play.bbshorts wrote:Alot of people slam it, but it has some good tunes on it.

Re: uplifter
'Uplifter' is unquestionably 311's worst album!
'Music' - 'Evolver', automatically I any 311 fan agrees could NEVER be labeled 311's worst album:
'Music': You ever heard any 311 fan say a single song off it was bad?
'Grassroots': Same as above
'311': Same as Above
'Transistor': I've never heard any 311 fan not rank 'Transistor' as one of their 3 favorite 311 albums
'Soundsystem': I've only ever heard "Leaving Babylon" and "Come Original" labeled as bad songs
'From Chaos': Yeah a ton of fans hate "Amber", & some fans dislike "Champagne" and a few say "I'll Be Here Awhile" is bad
'Evolver': "Same Mistake Twice" fucking SUCKS SUCKS, SUCKS! & know some 311 fans that really don't like "Give Me A Call"
Does everyone here agree with that?

Re: uplifter
So than it's between 'Don't Tread On Me', 'Uplifter', & 'Universal Pulse'. Right?
'Don't Tread on Me' and 'Universal Pulse' may not be great albums, but both of them have more good songs than they do bad songs.
But 'Uplifter' so obviously is 311's worst album it's as much of a fact as 2+2 = 4 is
I'll even prove it.
I challenge anyone to name 9 songs from 'Uplifter' they think are good songs (including b sides 'Uplifter' would be 18 tracks, so 50% is 9 songs)
Come on someone try...let's hear it!!!
