I just think it's their best, or at least on par with Science. But that's just me.

I know people tend to say it's boring and pretentious. But that's kinda up my alley I suppose.
Ah. I was just wondering if maybe the first album we each heard from them was different which lead to different expectations of the band, but I too heard Make Yourself first so there goes that theory. For me the order was Make Yourself then SCIENCE then Fungus Amongus then Morning View then complete loss of interest (though I've heard some of A Crow Left of the Murder...). I'm happy we can both agree that SCIENCE is up at the top of the heap though, I'm actually listening to it at this very moment as a result of this conversation. :)

Compelling argument, then again you could probably listen to the Hard Rock albums being shelled out now and it'd have the same effect.

Perhaps the most boring Incubus album ever released. Earth to Bella has got to be the weakest Incubus track I've heard to date.
This is the first album I have ever bought from them. I bought it mainly after hearing Anna Molly which I loved but yeah it wasn't a good purchase. I should of downloaded some of their other albums. When it comes to Incubus I have only listened to their singles. I have never listened to a full album of theirs until I bought Light Grenades.

the only real thing keeping me from liking them is the vocalist. i HATE his singing.


other than that, they're good
Brandon Boyd is a somewhat notorious hippie douche, and I'm not really a fan of hippie douche's. But I love him as a vocalist.

yeah, i'm just listening to it without watching and i could tell he reeks of douche. as for the vocals, he's better with less aggressive songs, the harder songs it seems like he's trying too hard to be hXc or something

enough with the Incubus already. I'm trying to think of an album I don't get just so I can end this madness, but nothing's coming to mind.

I usually only find him grating when it comes to the love/breakup ballads.

I Miss You, Southern Girl and most of Light Grenades for example. http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y28...s/smiley11.gif

the youtube link i was posted has pretty much the entire Morning View album being played, so give it a listen if you want

YouTube - Incubus - Morning View Sessions

No that's just half of the album, the rest is from Science and Make Yourself.

Ok, I see I'm responsable for throwing this thread off track, sorry about that.

Note to self, need to make an Incubus thread eventually.

I'm familiar with Incubus' catalog, yet remain particularly indifferent toward their music. I just think that within the context of this thread they've been beaten to death and beyond as a topic of conversation.

Someone explain what's so great about Fear of a Blank Planet. (there's the bone I've been waiting to throw).
