Club, who says "With 21 songs spread out over 68 minutes, the record has taken plenty of critical punishment for its excessive length alone." and calls it a "joyless, tedious exercise in white-boy reggae, white-boy rap, white-boy dub and white-boy rock.", concluding that the band could suffer a Spin Doctors-style career combustion in the future. The album has received criticism from The A.V. They nominated the song "Transistor" as the only Track Pick from the album. Allmusic comments "A project of this magnitude is almost doomed to fall on its face, and Transistor nearly does." and notes that there's enough good songs for a 30 to 40 minute album, but has too much filler. Transistor received a mixed review from Allmusic. Transistor also contains elements of dub, space rock and funk. Although, their rap rock style is still present in some songs, such as "Galaxy", "No Control", "Tune In", "Starshines", and "Borders". While still utilizing their alternative rock sound in many songs, Transistor saw 311 moving away from their hip hop-influenced sound of their previous albums for more of a reggae-influenced sound, as shown in songs such as "Prisoner", "Inner Light Spectrum", "Running", "Rub a Dub", and "Stealing Happy Hours". ![]() Nick Hexum admitted that doing too many songs in not enough time for Transistor was a mistake. Transistor was originally intended to be a double album, but all songs were instead placed onto one disc. Retrospectively, however, the album has been more positively received.Ĭlocking in at 67:59 and with twenty-one tracks (or twenty-three, counting both hidden tracks), Transistor is 311's longest album and is the only 311 album to contain more than sixteen tracks. Upon its release, Transistor received negative reviews from critics, who felt that the record was overlong and self-indulgent. The album saw a change in musical style as fewer songs feature rapping in comparison to the band's previous albums. dBpoweramp names such hidden tracks as "Hidden First Track (ability to rip depends on CD drive)", self-explanatory.Over Transistor is the fourth studio album by 311. The ones before track 1, index 1, hidden in track 1's pregap. There is only a type of hidden tracks which require a special treatment and a drive capable of extracting it. Only if my drive doesn't cache audio data, or can use FUA.īy the way, I don't see here anything abnormal. In very, very exceptional cases (for example a CD with just 2/3 bad frames which can dump securely at all costs) I enter a extreme value like as 5000 or 10,000. In the past, I tested a Hitachi-LG reader based on Panasonic chipset (+102) and it caches audio data, 186 KB.ĭefeating cache when you drive doesn't cache audio data is a waste of time and an innecesary stress load for drive.Īlso, if drive supports C2 pointers you can safely increase the re-reads ammount. Insert a original CD in very good condition, don't do multitasking during test and check if you drive actually caches audio data using the Detect cache option, and if so the exact amount.
