311 has released their new music video for new track “Hey You”. The single is reminiscent of their 90s reggae-gunk roots combined with some heavy guitar. The video was directed by Joe Lynch (Pete Yorn, Godhead, the original Toxic Avenger).
"Hey You" is the first single from 311's new album "Uplifter" out June 2nd, 2009 on Jive Records. The group is planning a summer tour ("Unity Your 2009") to promote the album alongside Ziggy Marley and The Expendables on June 5th.
Uplifter is 311's ninth studio album. Previously 311 have released five Gold, one Platinum, and one Triple-Platinum-certified albums, a live album and three DVD's (one Gold, two Platinum-certified). Five of their releases have reached the Top 10 on Billboard's Top 200 Album Charts. Six singles have gone into the Top 10 on Billboard's Modern Rock Chart including the #1 hits "Down," "Love Song," and "Don’t Tread On Me." To date band has sold over 8 million units in the U.S.

| used to really like these guys but the last 2 or 3 albums really turned me off. It all started going downhill when S.A. quit rapping imo. Now I've only heard the "hey you" single but if the rest of the album is anything like this then it probably sucks a fat doorick. Posted on: 2009-05-15 02:21:33 |
