What musician, album, or song best describes what working at Steampunk means to you?
311 – their music is a blend of rock, hip hop, reggae, and funk – and to me, that unique blend is the musical definition of “Disrupting the Sea of Sameness”. When I first listened to 311’s blue album with my college Chemical Engineering study group, it quite honestly blew my mind and woke me up to something “different”. I felt that same “difference” when I left my comfy, 20+ year job to come to Steampunk. My experience discovering 311 represents the same type of paradigm shift I experienced when I joined Steampunk – something different!
