Incubus one of the greatest bands in recorded history. Especially for their ability to evolve. Going from Funk metal (Fungus Amongus) to Melodic blues (If not now, when?) Please! PLEASE!! Come to Perth.
They are the most aspiring, innovative, original, musically talented group of people I have ever seen. Mike with is Innovative, unique guitar style that blends: Funk, rock, blues, Brandon who's fantastic, endearing vocals that provokes both emotion and excitement, Ben with his music genius and rhythmic spirit, Chris a skillful DJ who's talented use of effects makes Incubus.... INCUBUS!! And who can forget Jose the most original percussionist I have ever seen. All 5 members combined make....
Is it strange that I'm a 15 year old kid (I'm not gay) But I cry a little whenever I listen to Incubus? They've done so much for me in terms that... I use to be an incredibly self-conscious person. Very shy, I felt very week in myself. It wasn't until I listened to Drive I was introduced to this band. The greatest thing in my life that has EVER happened was when I first heard 'Drive' Since then I have forever been enticed by the beauty of this band.
This album seemed to really focus on Brandon's voice. Which I think is awesome. I think he's very underrated as an artist. All of them are actually. In my personal opinion, best band in the universe.
This tune is definitely a grower...I was a little underwhelmed on first listen, but it really has become one of my favourites in they've released in the last few years.
dammmn hes got an amazing voice!! and soo sexy i mean my goood! i love the end after his line "dont hide ur eyes.." the way his upper lip comes up is soo sexy.
I love Brandon Boyd..... And no matter how hard i try to emmulate him i can never get it! he is the voice of my childhood and present, i've literally grown up with his voice to guide me...... Much love to him and the rest of the band....
One of the reasons people are ragging on Boyd's voice here is because it's completely unaffected. No reverb, no delay, no echo... just his straight voice. How many of today's rock singers can do that and sound good? Not many.
I thought the same thing.....then on about the 5th or sixth listen I really started to like it, big time. Different yes but its really good. Give it a chance.
@xBradsrucax They were awesome in Cincy! Damn... can't get the night outta my head! Might have to drive up to Columbus tomorrow to see them again....haha
I feel sorry for the people who hate this record, if you're not able to hear beauty out of music, I feel really sorry for you, music is not always about playing the hardest riffs and making wicked shit on your instrument. This right here is just pure harmony, especially the bridge, it's the whole idea of music happening there. Some people hate it, some people say it's good, but they don't like it. For those who don't see that this is good music, they just don't understand it.
@mintybassman You can dislike new stuff :) But even if I love old albums, I like "If not now when" too! They're changed, I agree, but they're music is still powerfull and intense about the intention. Not a bad album, it's a NEW album. (sorry for the bad english, I'm italian!)
@RobOnH It is a new album and it's also a different album. I have no problems with bands evolving and changing, but I think with the last album and this album they've just lost the 'edginess' that made them amazing. Tracks like 'Admiration' and 'Pantomime' were different to how they were, but they were fantastic tracks. This, i'm afraid, seems to be an album with only 1 decent track 'Switchblade'.
@mintybassman Dude Rap rock is dead and they whey were smart enough to jump ship when they did, This is something different, no doubt but it doesnt make it bad, They have grown from adolescent bullshit likes of Korn, and Limp Bizkit who didnt realize that you gotta evolve and stop recycling yourself. This is great, appreciate it
This song can do no wrong...if you spill a cup of milk on a $10K Persian rug; turn up the iPod stereo and press play on this song. If you accidentally rear end a vehicle, don't argue. Exit your car and leave the door open and make sure to play this song. If you failed an exam you crammed several days for, put this song on and keep trucking.
Though it's difficult as heck for an mp3 player to skip, the amount of times I've played this on my iPod, it should've exploded already.
Last friday I bought your new cd.. it's different from the others, the first time I listened to it I wasn't sure about the songs, but now more I listen to it more I like it
@mintybassman No wai dude, it's not terrible, it's awesome. It's just that that was shot with a normal camera and you can't get that DVD-concert sound, but his voice is amazing man, the best there is today
