They had amassed enough of a following by 1998 to land a slot on that summer's Ozzfest tour, and they rounded out the year with a stint on Korn's inaugural Family Values tour, by which time DJ Lyfe had departed and been replaced by DJ Kilmore (first name Chris). Incubus then hit the road with a vengeance, opening for bands like Korn, Primus, 311, Sublime, and Unwritten Law. Their full-length debut album, S.C.I.E.N.C.E., followed before the year's end. Incubus' first major-label release was the six-song EP Enjoy Incubus, which was released in early 1997 and consisted of previous demos that were revamped in the studio. That, coupled with a strong local following, helped the band earn a deal with the Epic Records subsidiary Immortal. In 1995, Incubus added hip-hop turntablist DJ Lyfe (aka Gavin Koppel) to their lineup and recorded the independently released album Fungus Amongus. By the time the musicians had graduated from high school, they had already been playing all-ages shows around Southern California on a regular basis. Their early funk-metal sound was heavily influenced by the Red Hot Chili Peppers, but broadened over the next few years to incorporate thrash, rap-metal, post-grunge rock, and grinding alt-metal à la Korn or the Deftones.
INCUBUS BAND ALBUMS PLUS
Incubus spent the next decade focusing on playing live but also issued two more studio albums (2011's If Not Now, When? and 2017's 8) plus a handful of singles and EPs that continued to expand their sonic oeuvre.įormed in 1991 in the San Fernando Valley suburb of Calabasas, California, the band's early lineup comprised tenth-grade classmates Brandon Boyd (vocals, percussion), Mike Einziger (guitar), Alex Katunich (aka Dirk Lance bass), and José Pasillas (drums).

They continued their reign over the ensuing decade, issuing a string of gold- and platinum-selling records: Morning View (2001), A Crow Left of the Murder. Helped me through some bad times when I was young.Incubus became one of the most popular alt-metal bands of the new millennium, setting themselves apart from a crowded field with a tireless touring ethic and a broad musical palette. I love them all but Morning View would have to be my favorite. There's an album for every mood and every season. sunday’s iphone has some word salad for you July 28, 2019 “I don’t wanna talk to you anymore, I’m afraid of what I might say!” #BloodOnTheGround ❤️ My biggest emotional connection is definitely Morning View. Both Morning View and Make Yourself came out in life defining periods of my life.
SCIENCE is fantastic, I wish they’d bring that vibe back. Similar to how I feel about albums it’s hard to pick a favorite. S.C.I.E.N.C.E I discovered the band and was also drawn into the alien ? / paranormal vibe and the funkadelic deliciousness brought up by the talented bass player incubus had at that time. veKziweir9Ī Crow Left of the Murder! The most underrated body of work you guys put out though was the CD of instrumentals from Look Alive! ❤️ I love these both equally for different reasons.
