Some people…

I just found this blurb on consequenceofsound.net and the writer felt the need to preface a quote from 311 Management with this:

After the hugely disappointing Don’t Tread on Me, 311 has returned to the studio to work on their ninth studio album. In a posting on their message board, the band’s management revealed the following about the currently untitled album:

What exactly qualifies the statement “hugely disappointing?” Was the writer personally disappointed, or did he view it as unsuccessful in a business sense? Because I just found an article that says DTOM debuted at #5 on the Billboard Top 200, and was the #6 single on Modern Rock radio.

I do have to give that site props though for covering the 311 news pretty extensively…they had a lot of summer festival updates re. 311, and even recognized 311 Day. =D

    Hi,

    As a longtime 311 fan, I felt Don’t Tread on Me was by far their worst effort to date, an opinion I know more than a few others hold. And I’m talking about quality.

    Sorry for the confusion.
