We arrived at the pissup social event and convinced the host to put the album on.Anyway, without further ado, this is my review, song by song as I listen only for the second time to this album. As my friend and I were travelling to a get together he started to wax lyrical about its various transitions and shifts from one genre to another. This reviewer will put it simply: if you are a fan of 311 and you do not own or at least give a listen to this album, you are doing yourself an extreme disservice.This is an album that before last night I had never heard of, let alone listened to. A band is often times praised (or mocked) for the albums that step outside the spectrum of what you expect. Understand that this record is AND is not a departure from the 'signature' 311 sound. The classic chunky ragga/hip-hop funk themes are supplemented by a 'trippy' or 'spacey' feel which carries throughout the entire record.įans of the old and new sounds of the band will not be disappointed as you can hear where they had come from and where they might be heading.

A series of uptempo songs are interlaced with slower numbers. The track layout is superb as the the tracks flow seemlessly from start to finish. Twenty one songs may seem like a long record but as they take you on this journey, their intentions become very clear. Originally intended to be a double cd, the band decided on releasing it as one disc as a treat for the fans. The release of Transistor is their signature album.
