Incubus

[BlackoutMatt]

I bought Morning View and (rebought...) Make Yourself as one of those two-in-one packs from Fopp for a miniscule 6 quid yesterday...

6 quid.

:eek:

I love what I've heard of the new stuff...

[Zee Deveel]

Just downloaded "Dig". I'm surprised the whole album hasn't leaked yet. It's a semi slow song, can't really compare it to any of their others. Not too dissimilar to the styles of songs on Morning View.

[theimpressiveclergyman]

They're just... A touch dull..

[Zee Deveel]

Listening to Love Hurts. I think I like the sounds of the songs I've heard.

[Morning_View]

Is Dj Kilmore actually still playing his decks on the new album? I've only seen him on piano :confused:

[Zee Deveel]

Is Dj Kilmore actually still playing his decks on the new album? I've only seen him on piano :confused:

not from what I've heard so far.

[Morning_View]

not from what I've heard so far.

Well that's a bit crap!

[Caro]

Well that's a bit crap!


I'm sort of disappointed about that too, but so long as it still sounds good I can forgive them.


Mmmmmm, I have Make Yourself on right now. Tunage muchos. :happy:

[Zee Deveel]

the whole album's been leaked. It's on oink me, but alas, no account :(

edit: found it somewhere else

[Morning_View]

I had to be naughty and download it, first listen came across as average but like ACLOTM it grows on you alot. A kiss to send us off is superb and dig is bootiful

[Zee Deveel]

Yah, I heart Dig at the mo.

[Caro]

Oooooh, it's out tomorrow! *jiggles*

I'm so excited! :happy:

[Zee Deveel]

Oooooh, it's out tomorrow! *jiggles*

I'm so excited! :happy:

Oh shit, I wonder if the lame stores around here will have it on the actual release date.

[Mark]

Have the album already but I am buying it cos it's worth it. 3rd best Incubus album imo, it is a really REALLY good album though. A Kiss To Send Us Off is now my new fave Incubus song, Anna Molly rules, Light Grenades (the song) is hyperness :D, and Pendulous Threads i think is really good too. Earth To Bella is a good two-parter as well. Whole album's decent, well done to Incubus yet again!

[Zee Deveel]

I think I need to listen to it more to appreciate it. It's not really up there with the other albums yet. Time will tell.

[inn]

Gargh they went on sale for a uk arenay tour on friday I think it was. Balls to having no money :'(

For gods sake stupid bands I like, will you just quit announcing tours while I'm poor will ya!

Nah I'm maxed out :( totally

[Caro]

I LOVE THIS NEW ALBUM!!! It sounds like Incubus again. I don't know what Crow Left was, some kind of blip I guess, but this is what it's all about. Dig is just too gorgous for words. I cried when I heard it, cos I've got my band back it would seem. :$

I'm gonna need to ask you a favor :$

[Jimi Haze]

Good album - really like Pendulous Threads :D

[inn]

From the tracks I've heard this is certainly a diff album to previous albums yet again. They've stepped backwards a little. The tracks feel very kinda straight simple rock melodies again. Its got a twang of crow in it but the production of this album is way diff to crowd so obv its not the same.

yada yada [/pretentious bollocks]

I think the best track ive heard so far is anna molly actually

[Zee Deveel]

Love Hurts has been in my head all day. The album's growing on me slowly..

[Morning_View]

A kiss to send us off is all i freekin play at the moment, and diamonds and coal is growing on me more and more, very nice album. If id put albums in an order of greatness it would be

Make Yourself
Morning View
Science
Light grenades
Fungus Amugus
A crow left of the murder

btw has anybody heard any of the incubus tribute band that just play it in an ochestra? Drive is done beautifuly

Hmmmm, I think my preference order is pretty much the same except I would have light grenades before Science on the list... Personal opinion though, I'm just not a huge fan of the whole rap metal thing. Though I really Love Anti-Gravity from Science. :happy:

[aijuswanaseing]

you guys have to hear "Punch Drunk". it's one of the Japanese bonus tracks of their "Light Grenades".

anyway, for those that ahven't heard some of the new songs, check out their myspace:

[Zee Deveel]

For all us Japanese folk eh, how helpful.

[Morning_View]

For all us Japanese folk eh, how helpful.

lmao..wouldn't mind hearing that

[Caro]

:eek: Morning View your sig!

*oggles the Brandon-ness*

Ooh, I think I might need to reincarnate my Brandon sig from a while back...


I'm booking tickets for the tour tomorrow. Yus! :happy:

[KATFISH.]

My housemate bought us tickets the other day, there's between 18 and 21 of us going to see them in Nottingham!!!

Haha.

I can't wait :D I'm really excited, even though I have Placebo next week, Norma Jean in January, Brand New x2 in February, and maybe Alexisonfire in March, all before Incubus. haha.

[RadioBread]

science is defo top of my list on incubus albums. only one i really really like.

[Evilduck]

I'm really loving the new album. Its got a lot more instant appeal than Crow did. I want some tickets for Brixton but I'm soo skint :(

[Zee Deveel]

BUMP for no particular reason..


actually no, I'm not really a big fan of A Kiss to Send Us Off.

Should I be shot?

[Caro]

BUMP for no particular reason..

It's not their best. Don't hate it, but I don't think it's spectacular. There's much better on that CD. Like Dig. :D

[Zee Deveel]

Phew. earth to bella is goddamn sexy too.

[Fluky]

Yay im going to go see them
/wins
:happy:

[Zee Deveel]

Goddammit.:mad:

[Fluky]

:D Im excited!

[inn]

Mmm love hurts is a delicious song, I have decided.

I need to listen to listen to the rest of the album tho :(

[Caro]

I'm listening to Dig on repeat again :$

[Zee Deveel]

Admiration is an awesome song, I've just decided.

[Sommer]

i've just gotten the album yesterday, bought it during the weekend and came home to find the sealed case empty inside. :stunned:

so i havent listened to it long enough to decide a fav song but i can say that i like this album :)

[Zee Deveel]

wait what? you mean you bought the cd, but there was no actual cd? Or someone else had already opened it before you? :unsure:

[Sommer]

they package the cd's here by sealing up the cases with the discs already inside with plastic wrap stuff before shelfing, so what i was supposed to get was a christmas morning like moment where i excitedly rip open the plastic seal and open the case to find the gem, tho apparently not so in my case :stunned:

[Mark]

31st March :D

[Jacky Boy]

Does anyone else think that Light Grenades is kinda crap compared to their old stuff?

[Caro]

Does anyone else think that Light Grenades is kinda crap compared to their old stuff?

Not as good as the old stuff. But better than Crow Left by a LOOOOOONG way.

[Zee Deveel]

I wish they'd announce some dates down here already. They most definitely have to come :yesey:

[Liron]

Apparently they're actually coming here for a small club gig. Rather shocking.

I don't know them well enough, anyone fancy recommending me some songs that they probably will sing at a gig in March?

[Zee Deveel]

Probably a few from the new album. I'd say probably Dig, Anna Molly. From other albums, probably Megalomaniac, Drive. Not being to a show, I'm not really sure of what they normally play.

[Caro]

They always play Wish You Were Here, Drive, Pardon Me and they'd do Talk Shows on Mute and Megalomaniac I'd imagine. They usually try and do something from Science as well. New Skin or Vitamin seem to be the favourites. I was lucky enough to see them play Anti-Gravity Love Song though, which was awesome.

[Zee Deveel]

There's an 11 song acoustic set you can download up the top right of the page where it says "Download Incubus' KROQ Acoustic Xmas performance."

---------------------------------------------

hmm, a kiss to send us off starts in the middle of the song :indiff:

[Liron]

Thanks guys, I'll give them a listen. I do like Anna Molly but I'm quite ashamed to say I really haven't heard a thing of their old stuff...
They really aren't that famous here, I'm quite shocked they're coming lol

'Wish You Were Here'....... ummm not a PF cover right? or is it?

'Wish You Were Here'....... ummm not a PF cover right? or is it?

No, Wish You Were Here is an original of theirs. To get into their older stuff, check out the albums Make Yourself and Morning View first, then try Science. Their sound changes with every album, and Science is early Incubus, so it's really different and kind of rap metal sounding, but there are a few amazing tracks on it, like Anti-Gravity Love Song.

Ok, thanks :D Phew, glad it's not a cover, got kinda worried there lol

I'll definitely check them out.

[Zee Deveel]

hmm so the commercial radio stations here have started playing Dig.

Won't be long till i hate the song because it's played 5 times a day every day :indiff:

Well I'll be jimmy juggered, there was me singing that song off of Wish You Were Here, that one that goes, "she woke in the morning, she knew that liiiife had paaassed her byyy" and there's the Incubus thread on the top. :happy: *psychic*

Science is the best album

[incubism]

Science is the best album

+1, definitely!

[Ash]

+1, definitely!

For some reason, seing "Incubus by Incubism" really freaked me out :unsure:

[Ril]

I still don't believe she's really a fan. :p

[incubism]

I still don't believe she's really a fan. :p

I was 15, and made a cubistic Brandon Boyd in art class :D just about the time I came on here, as well.. ;) I never mind a bit o' Boyd

[€ngel]

+1, definitely!

Hey, I'm going to Pearl Jam in Park. Guess I'll be seeing Incubus there. :stunned: I'll be thinking of you then. ;)

[incubism]

Hey, I'm going to Pearl Jam in Park. Guess I'll be seeing Incubus there. :stunned: I'll be thinking of you then. ;)

wow, are they playing alongside Pearl Jam? Or is that Fields of Rock again?

[€ngel]

wow, are they playing alongside Pearl Jam? Or is that Fields of Rock again?

Nope. It's Pearl Jam playing in 't Goffert with 3 other bands. :D Are you coming over? :p

[Mozza]

Is there a video for Dig yet? 4 years on this board and I never posted in this thread! I can't believe I missed buying tickets for their tour again!

[incubism]

Nope. It's Pearl Jam playing in 't Goffert with 3 other bands. :D Are you coming over? :p

:noey: unless they move it to July..

[Caro]

Is there a video for Dig yet? 4 years on this board and I never posted in this thread! I can't believe I missed buying tickets for their tour again!

Bummer. I'd say have mine, but... nah. :p I want to see them again too much.

[Santa Claus]

THey'll be here soon :D

:D

:D


I hope it's not too expensive otherwise I'll just have a beer at a pub instead :unsure: and plan my revenge on ticketmaster :indiff: :p

[€ngel]

:noey: unless they move it to July..

Sorry, it's in June. :(

[incubism]

Sorry, it's in June. :(

grr.. I better have Glastonbury to look forward to.. I heard they've just been confirmed for Werchter as well.. as well as Pearl Jam, Bjork and my00ze :noey:

[€ngel]

grr.. I better have Glastonbury to look forward to.. I heard they've just been confirmed for Werchter as well.. as well as Pearl Jam, Bjork and my00ze :noey:

Indeed! Werchter and even Pinkpop are looking good this year. Smashing Pumpkins are headlining Pinkpop this year. :eek:

[Mozza]

Still tickets left for Nottigham! :D

But no one wants to go with me, maybe i'll just go alone

[incubism]

Indeed! Werchter and even Pinkpop are looking good this year. Smashing Pumpkins are headlining Pinkpop this year. :eek:

yesss that's amazing! I really really hope they'll do the same for Glasto (if I get tickets, that is :rolleyes:)

so have you decided yet which of these amazing lineups has tickled your fancy? ;)

[incubism]

Still tickets left for Nottigham! :D

But no one wants to go with me, maybe i'll just go alone

I'm going by myself and all ;) Manchester though

[Mozza]

I have two tickets though!

I might be tempted to go to Pinkpop this year. But Lowlands is always so much fun... I'll wait for some names before I'll buy a ticket though.

[incubism]

noee you can't miss out on Lowlands.. :stunned:

same here :LOL: I might be able to tempt my flat mate, but she's poor and she's already seen them, she said

[€ngel]

noee you can't miss out on Lowlands.. :stunned:

That's what I've been thinking. I don't know who will join me though. :stunned:

[incubism]

That's what I've been thinking. I don't know who will join me though. :stunned:

isn't Jet going? And the lot?

[€ngel]

isn't Jet going? And the lot?

Not sure... I haven't spoken to Jet in ages, since Lowlands last year. :(

[Mozza]

My mate said he'd come if I can guarantee that they'll play "Are You In" Is it likely? I've never been to an Incubus gig and last time I took this guy to a gig I said Muse would most probably play Bliss and they didn't

[€ngel]

My mate said he'd come if I can guarantee that they'll play "Are You In" Is it likely? I've never been to an Incubus gig and last time I took this guy to a gig I said Muse would most probably play Bliss and they didn't

Ofcourse they are going to play that. ;)

firstly, Are You In is the worst song in incubus' history (even more rubbish live), and secondly, muse hasn't been as predictable as usual the past year or so, which is good when you go see them more than once ;)

Not sure... I haven't spoken to Jet in ages, since Lowlands last year. :(

aww ok! I'm sure there'll be loads of people though, me and my Brits anyway! :D

[jenniferlinstrom]

hi
I am from Denver, Colorado and my friend and I are going to Switzerland and Milan for spring break at the end of march and are desperate for Incubus tickets. I know the shows are sold out (we waited too long) and I have no idea how I could go about getting some. I know if i was trying to get tickets here I could look on myspace or message boards and see if anybody is selling any but honestly it's really hard to do when everything in Dutch!! Do you guys have any ideas how I could go about finding 2 tickets to either of these shows? I will pay like up to $200 and this is like the only forumn I've found online in English to post in.
thankkk you:)

[Liron]

Going to see them in just about 3 weeks :)

They're playing a rather small venue.. 3500 capacity.
Tickets took a while to sell out cos it wasn't widely published at first.

But then about a month ago they did sell out and people are now desperately looking for tickets while the ones who have extras sell it for over 4 times original price, it really sickens me :(

Anyway, I'm glad I got mine in time and they better do Drive acoustic :D

[Mozza]

:eek: I like it, but my mate is proper obsessed with it.

Yeah I know Muse aren't as predictable, but I thought New Born, Plug In Baby and Bliss would be on the setlists till the end of time!

:LOL: I can imagine! Fortunately, my father has never even attempted to express an opinion on any song released after 1981

I like the song even less because of the video, where the blonde skeleton gets to kiss Boyd :noey: no fair

[Caro]

My dad likes some modern music, and that's ok, so long as he doesn't say he likes stuff by Incubus. Cos that's just too scary. It's different if he says he likes... the new Paul Weller song or something :LOL:

I envy everyone who has ever kissed Brandon so much that it actually pains me. My little heart breaks at the thought.

[Lucifer Sam]

Their new site shits me off :indiff:

[Lucifer Sam]

I can now confidently say that Dig is the best song to play up motherfucking loud in the car with the windows down :yesey:

Which albums would everyone recommend? :happy:

[Caro]

Which albums would everyone recommend? :happy:

I would say to start with Morning View, cos it's a nice way to ease yourself into them, and then get Make Yourself and Light Grenades, then go on to get Science, which is a much heavier, and quite different sound because it's much earlier.


*edits* And woooooooo, me and my sister now have tiiiiickets. ^_^

[inn]

Make yourself!

Ohh they're playing notts ice arena? Hmm tempted, tho I shouldn't really be booking any more gigs...

My Glasgow SECC tickets arrived the other day and now that I'm home I have them in my hand. :happy:

Dooooo it. If you go it'll be class tunes from a good live band, with a very very pretty singer. You can't tell me you would consider missing it when it's got all that going for it...

[Caro]

Ummmm, from the New album they'll play Anna Molly and Dig for sure. They'll play Pardon Me and Drive from Make Yourself, Probably Circles, Wish You Were Here and Warning from Morning View, and they'll play something from Science too, which is likely to be Vitamin or New Skin.

Those are the tracks I reckon are pretty much certain to be in their set.

[Ril]

That's great, thanks. :happy:

[Liron]

Seen Incubus in Tel Aviv last night. Was good, except for extreme moshing before they went on (after they went on, surprisingly, it was rather calm).
I was second row on the far right, with Mike standing a few meters from me.

During Pardon Me Acoustic, the acoustic guitar went dead (well, it IS Israel...) so Mike switched to another one while all of us were clapping and singing with Brandon lol Mike then switched to another acoustic which quickly went dead as well, we were still clapping and singing. Brandon seemed quite chuffed about our reaction but then he stopped the singing and told Mike he'll wait for him... (there was also a funny 'give him a violin' comment)
Mike then took an electric guitar but played it just like the acoustic.
I have a video of some of that...

Also, Drive was different due to the guitar problems.

All in all, good gig. I'll post pictures/videos if you want.

[Liron]

Ummmm, from the New album they'll play Anna Molly and Dig for sure.

They didn't play Dig last night.

[Caro]

They didn't play Dig last night.

O_O That's really weird. I think they're going to release it as a single here though, which is why it'll get played.

[musiclover85]

only like one of their songs- aqueous transmission...:LOL:

Great song, but I HATE HATE HATE the four minutes of frog noises on the end. It's just not needed. :indiff:whattt. that's the perfect ending to the song! it all fits in with the theme

[Liron]

Just read their European tour was cancelled :eek:

[Mozza]

They better not rearrange it for when my exams are!

[Caro]

Wow, his hand needs surgery :stunned: Wonder what he did to it. I was so looking forward to it :( Now it's ages to wait again.

Still, at least they're not just cancelling and refunding I guess.

myspace bulletin: "sorry boys and girls"

I tried my hardest, but Carpal Tunnel Syndrome sucks ass...I played as long and as hard as i could, I tried stretching, Anti-inflammatories, Ice, Injections, Rest...everything i could, but to no avail. and now surgery is my final option. But, the good news is that the surgery has proven to be VERY effective in getting rid of my particular ailment, so all i need to do is not play guitar for a couple months and heal. In munich the other night, i smashed my guitar on the stage right before i walked off, for those of you who didn't see it, because i was frustrated. My hand completely stopped working. I came out and played one more song in excruciating pain and needed to go home and see my doctors immediately. Then as soon as i knew i needed surgery, all i could think of was how dissappointed all of our fans out there were going to be...especially our south american friends who must think we hate them by now! MY SINCEREST APOLOGIES to everyone who was inconvenienced...but i promise i will make it up to every single one of you by giving you a sensual full-body massage, a fur coat, and a bentley. It's the least i can do. But seriously, sorry boys and girls, i'll see u all very soon. -mike

[New in the thread]

Incubus is comming to Argentina!! they're playing the october 11th.
But i won't be able to see them.
That's sad :'(

[Mozza]

fucks sake I can't go now and I missed the cut off point for resending my tickets! :(

[Ross]

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

was an immense gig, and we got aqueous :D It is so much more beautiful live.

I never really liked some of the stuff off of light grenades (anna molly didn't thrill me) until i heard it live. anna molly now = :D

I think incubus are slowly developing into a new favourite band :)

and boyd is actually stunning:$

[I Only Want You]

I LOVE INCUBUS, I have their cover of Lionel Ritchie's Hello somewhere. I've seen Incubus 6 times now, they never put on a bad show. I went to see them play In Las Vegas about 3 years ago, I went insane during Summer Romance. One time my friend and I got pretty drunk during an Incubus show, we yelled at Brandon Boyd to take off his pants. I got to see them recently at the Greek Theater in LA, great show. I even got to meet Brandon Boyd once, I was so damn nervous.

[Lucifer Sam]

Before they were known as Incubus, they were joey badafooko.

Can't say I knew that.

[Caro]

Who loves Incubus? Caro loves Incubus. <3

[Ross]

Who loves Incubus? Caro loves Incubus. <3

Ross loves Incubus as well :) ^_^ <3

[Clunge]

[christoph]

my friends were in cardiff the other day, and thought they saw me walking up ahead infront of them. they started shouting my name a few times, and the guy didn't turn around. they shouted a few more times, guy turns around and it was brandon boyd. chuffed!

[crazy_mary]

[Lucifer Sam]

I think i arsed about too long and didn't get any tickets to the festival they're playing at :(

anybody got the latest DVD?

[Lucifer Sam]

ooh no I didn't!

[crazy_mary]

they just played in Auckland and Brisbane by now i think. Setlist anyone? please ? :)

[Cydoniababy]

I've just found their album (Light Grenades) among my CDs yesterday :LOL:. So far they sound good to me :D

[mynameisdebbie]

Saw them live last night. So. Freakin. Awesome.

[crazy_mary]

words just can't describe how awesome they were at Sunburst Music Festival last night!! it was BLISS .:D

[Artarita]

Pretty awesome band...one of my favourites and one of the first rock bands I ever got into when I was like 13 years old.
I saw them years ago when I was 16 and that gig was killer!
I love Make Yourself and S.C.I.E.N.C.E, but I'll always have a soft spot for Mourning View as well. The later albums are not too bad either.
I love Clean, Redefine, Blood on the ground, Pardon Me, Certain shade of green and Warning.

[Caro]

Light Grenades isn't even their best album either... Have a go at Morning View and Make Yourself and see what you think. Their sound changes on every album, so Morning View is more mellow and Make Yourself has some seriously angsty bits.

[Mona]

they're playing Download festival.

[Gemsy]

BAH. Download LOSES

[Sagi]

I love Incubus =D Especially their Light Grenades Album ^^

[mynameisdebbie]

Has anyone heard the 3 songs they made for OST Stealth? I really like em :happy:

[Obi]

you boob

Oh well! I did ask for a merge :P

[Hi, how may I help you?]

[Caro]

Still my favourites. :happy:

[Mozza]

Still my favourites. :happy:

I never did go see them live :(

[Gemsy]

I saw them live a couple of times, pretty cool. I was expecting better though. Mind you I always saw them in a massive crowd, I bet they rock little venues.

I had a ticket for them at Nottingham Arena, but then Mike did his wrist in and they had to re-arrange, my friend dropped out and I couldn't go either :(

[MattXXI]

Ive been listening to them a lot lately, especially Make Yourself. I need more Boyd please.

[Davinq]

Ooh, awesome necropost! <3 Incubus

Any sign of them pulling out of hiatus yet?

"Incubus will head back into the studio in the summer of 2010 to begin writing and recording a new studio album, tentatively scheduled for a 2011 release."

also to quote Brandon from an interview:

"We are definitely going to be writing ... in hopes of putting out a record sometime in 2010. That's the hope. We can never force anything. I definitely have the suspicion that we're going to get on the road together this summer, and we're just going to start playing and stuff is going to start brewing, and we're going to light that fire again."

:awesome:

Sweeeeeeeeeeeet.

[Mozza]

Definitely need some more Incubus in my life

[Lucifer Sam]

Anybody heard brandon's solo album? I downloaded but it's disappeared on me.

[Ross]

I have. I'm still not sure what I think about it tbh

[boomeraangsquad]

I realize I'm a bit late on the Incubus love train but I just heard Light Grenades. Wow. <3 It was all so good. I especially loved Love Hurts.

Fucking great band.

[Ross]

Next on your list should be morning view, then A crow left of the murder, then Make yourself,

[boomeraangsquad]

Oh, I have Morning View, Make Yourself, and S.C.I.E.N.C.E and I think they're awesome. :) Especially Morning View.

Looking forward to hearing ACLOTM.

[Mandy_]

it's so much easier when sea-foam green is in fashion.

[Lucifer Sam]

Super-bump.

The new album is pretty damn awesome. Extremely different to anything they've ever done, but still really good.

The title track is probably my favourite. Such a sexy voice that Brandon has acquired.

[Jedi of Cydonia]

On the first listen I didn't really enjoy the new album that much but it's really a grower and I'm starting to like it a lot more! :awesome:

[Davinq]

If you hadn't bumped this thread I never would have known that they finished the album! Thanks! :awesome:

[Mark]

It is brilliant! Amazing album, very different but still a lovely set of songs, 'Switchblade' is a fucking TUNE too.

[Davinq]

Isadore. :happy:

[Lucifer Sam]

That's probably my least favourite :LOL:

[Bixer]

Anyone else manage to get pre-sale tickets this morning for their gig at the HMV Forum in a couple of weeks?

I can't wait! As far as I'm aware, it's their first 'proper' gig in the UK since the last time I saw them, which was back in October 2007.

[MattXXI]

They just posted a couple American dates this fall. Best believe I'm going to the Dallas show! :awesome:

[Jacky Boy]

Completely missed the presale this morning :facepalm:

I'll have to try on friday morning

[Lucifer Sam]

How convenient, getting a presale code for gigs in the US. :noey:

Did you get tickets? If so, how much were they? Need to work out if I can afford this

[Bixer]

Yeah I did. They were £31.something for the tickets including the booking fee, but then an extra £4 or something for the transaction fee, so just over £35 overall.

[Jacky Boy]

Ah thats alright, I thought since it's a bit of a one off show they might have been a bit more pricey.

[Lucifer Sam]

A little bit obsessed with the title track, am I.

[Davinq]

Skipping over Seattle, as usual. :(

[Lick My Face]

So, I've received my first two Incubus albums, A Crow Left... and S.C.I.E.N.C.E. I have one thing to say about the last track of the latter: what the dizzy shitbag?! :LOL: Did the band actually get bored?

Currently waiting on Morning View to get shipped and such.

[Lucifer Sam]

Calgone is such an awesome track. There's another version of it, without all the crap at the end, but it sounds slightly different, and not as rock-outable-to.

Morning View - possibly my favourite Incubus album.

What's with the sudden interest??

[Davinq]

New album, innit? It's been how many years? :LOL:

[Lucifer Sam]

New album, innit? It's been how many years? :LOL:

I meant more what's Mr Lick My Face's sudden interest all about, but yeah, about 4 years maybe?

[Lick My Face]

Couple of work mates of mine wanted me to give them a whirl, so I did. Next thing you know, I own two albums, with a third on the way as soon as HMV get their arses into gear. :indiff:

[boomeraangsquad]

They're coming to Arizona on Oct 5th with Young the Giant (who I also love). I'm definitely gonna try to go to that gig. :happy:

[enigmae]

incubuuus hurtsss but sometimes its a good hurtttt and it feels like im aliveeeee :p :p
