For MOSAIC, 311 worked with producer John Feldmann (Blink-182, Panic! At The Disco) as well as Scotch Ralston (who produced the group’siconic Transistor, Soundsystem and Stereolithic albums). On the album singer/guitarist NICK HEXUM, guitarist TIM MAHONEY, bassist P-NUT drummer CHAD SEXTON and singer/DJ S.A. MARTINEZ dive into a variety of styles, flexing their collective musical muscle honed from playing together for almost three decades.
MOSAIC features 17 songs. With regards to the current single “Too Much To Think,” Nick Hexum states, “This song is about the highs and lows of life. Seeking an escape from the every day stresses of life.”
Other songs include “‘Til The City’s On Fire,” a track inspired by the latest production techniques coming out of Jamaica & the EDM scene; the rocking “Perfect Mistake” with an opening rap from S.A. Martinez that sets a fiery tone; “Too Late” highlights some of the heaviest and most dissonant riffs Hexum and Mahoney have ever churned out; and “Places That The Mind Goes,” an achingly beautiful love song that is by no means sweet.
Following are more critical soundbites for 311’s MOSAIC:
“Mosaic, is the most ambitious album the band has released in years. The record captures 311 at its best, uniquely mixing genres like no other band. Few bands combine the musical interests of its members to the point where the band has created a genre all its own. Let’s be honest: No one does what 311 does. And they’ve been rewarded with longevity.”
