How much Bungle and Faith No More have you listened to? Even on their most interesting albums, Incubus were no where near as experimental as Bungle nor did they do the genre hopping thing that was such a staple of Bungle's sound. They just flat-out don't sound like really any of music on the three commercially released Bungle albums. They did however have the quirky funk-metal thing of FNM's The Real Thing / Angel Dust era down pat.
I have all three but have only given the self-titled multiple listens. With Faith No More again I have all of them but I mostly listen to The Real Thing and Angel Dust.
Dude, you took that waaay too literal. KoRn claims Bungle as an influence too. I didn't mean Incubus tried to recreate everything Mr. Bungle did, but Trey Spruance is an undeniable influence on Nu Metal in general and that heavy thing that Incubus did on an album like S.C.I.E.N.C.E.. That's why I said a combination of RHCP/Bungle/Primus. Again the part of Bungle that I think they liked was the silly/playful approach that they had in studio. Like this song:
Boyd's vocals just remind me of Patton in general so it would be easy to claim they liked both bands...
