Ben Kenny is never going to get the appreciation Dirk did. Dirk was in your face and crazy, Ben Kenny sits back.

Says the guy calling himself "metalhead511!!!111one" with a "dark" and "evil" Warcraft character as his avatar.

Ben is sooo the cooler bassist. From a compositional point of view, I mean. The way he approaches his lines is very unique.

shinobidice 06-18-2006 01:29 PM

Mike Einziger is definitely an inspiration in my music. I think Dirk Lance might have had some more interesting technique (SCIENCE shows a lot of crazy bass) but Ben Kenney fits well into their new music, as well as covers the old stuff well (Live at Wellington, Alive at Red Rocks etc)

I can't wait for their new stuff to come out

yo, you must not have seen them live. Ben Kenney does anything but sit back. he adds vocals (which dirk didnt do), he does the 3 person drum solo with Jose and Brandon (which Dirk couldnt do) and he jumps and dances around the stage.

Talk about the bump from the dead, any news in the world of Incubus?

Yeah, new album titles been announced. "Light Grenades", and its coming out on the 20th of november, theres an article on mtv.com sumwhere, and enjoyincubus.com has been updated.

randomthought9 08-03-2006 12:21 PM

I heard that Dirk came back, not sure if it's true or not.

These_Green_Eyes 08-03-2006 12:22 PM

I just bought "Make Yourself" a couple of days back. Great album. I don't like "A Crow Left of the Murder" with the exception of the song [I]Leech[/I].

I felt the same way a few years ago, but Make Yourself is my least favorite album by them now, and ACLOTM is my favorite. It grows on you.

MrRhodes 08-04-2006 03:05 PM

Everyone I know said S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is **** but I think it's good, don't see whats wrong with it. Its probably their worst but still not crap. My favourite album is Make Yourself and A Crow Left of the Murder.

zabbit82 08-04-2006 08:30 PM

S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is too wierd for me, but I listen to Mr. Bungle so I'm gonna give that another listen.

I havent heard news on the new Incubus album, but who has an idea when it's coming out? I've been gone for a few months in here.

but dirk is more technical which makes incubus more interisting(which ben cant do)....

and actually dirk lance does a few backing vocals aswell....

MrRhodes 08-05-2006 07:01 AM

Mike Einziger is so underrated.

Sound Boy 08-06-2006 06:28 AM

[QUOTE=rata]but dirk is more technical which makes incubus more interisting(which ben cant do)...[/QUOTE]

what are you talking about technical?? every incubus show i saw with dirk playing he did nothing but play what was on the album with a little bit of improvisation...i've even seen him do scale bass solos and flick effects and of course the cover songs..but of the one time i saw with Ben Kenney he did all that and more. Dirk is a great player. i dont hate him and i think he made incubus good. but i like Ben better and he completes the band. it seems everyone on ACLOTM was on the exact same page, music wise.

[QUOTE=lunch998]I liked S.C.I.E.N.C.E and Fungus Amoungus. The other stuff is decent, but I don't like it as much.[/QUOTE]

yea man i love fungus amongus, very groovy and unique, not into much incubus other than that album

loathed 08-06-2006 08:27 PM

Pretty much the only song i liked was "wish you were here"

NicetoKnowyou 08-08-2006 01:29 PM

[QUOTE]Mike Einziger is so underrated.[/QUOTE]

I agree:thumb: I was glad that he got in some good solo's on a crow left of the murder. Like on sick sad little world and priceless. Also, his rythym stuff is really unique.(on all albums)

MrRhodes 08-08-2006 05:47 PM

He has a great style of playing and his chord skills are amazing (with influence of jazz, blues, classical, etc).

MudvayneFreak666 08-08-2006 06:54 PM

[QUOTE=loathed]Pretty much the only song i liked was "wish you were here"[/QUOTE]
song is a great one dude love all their works though

mutant! 09-05-2006 04:27 PM

Yay for Einziger. Awesome guitarist.

Kenney is my favourite member of the band atm though. I love his style. Absolutely can't [i]wait[/i] for Light Grenades...

EDIT: hahaha I just remembered, I e-mailed Ben a while back asking for like $1000 so I could buy a bass. He said he'd do it if I fronted him the cash for a Ducati bike. :D And he added that he'd let me borrow one of his basses but it'd take me forever to get to his house.

Ben Ben, Incubus Ben? Is this a joke..? :) I don't really have a favourite but since I'm a guitarist and he is amazing I would have to say Mike.

Industry secret. :D

I actually mailed him once, not expecting a reply. He mailed back within like a day. Awesome guy to chat to!

Aw come on share the secret:p That's so cool.

Sound Boy 09-06-2006 07:58 PM

yeah i've met them a couple times. mike is a pretty chill dude but Jose is f*ckin Hilarious!

anyone got any new tracks yet...all i have is Earth to Bella

SailAway 09-06-2006 09:30 PM

I Can't wait for Light Grenades, I loved ben's playing on ACLOTM. Incubus has never let me down, I hope they keep up the tradition.

mutant! 09-07-2006 05:37 AM

I hear you, man. Ben brought a whole new flava to their sound which I really dig. At the moment I'm enjoying ACLOTM more than the early albums (except for Enjoy), so I'm amped to hear what's happening next.

Sound Boy - dude - sharing is caring, man. :thumb:

Chu 09-07-2006 07:42 AM

I'm not familiar with Enjoy, what does it sound like?

I prefer the heavier style that was evident on S.C.I.E.N.C.E, and to an extent Make Yourself, although I really love all Incubus.

I wouldn't say its heavier than science, but it is heavier than all of the other ones. Its basically all fungus songs with two new tracks and a dj.

Sound Boy 09-07-2006 07:38 PM

its not heavier songs...just funkier (s/p)

Enjoy is hardcore funk rock, man. Imagine an album full of Deep Inside. :D Azwethinkweiz is such a sweet track.

EDIT: Sound Boy, bratha, don't have AIM, man. :/

jversluis88 09-10-2006 08:43 AM

Definitely one of my favourite bands. Their style is amazing and they improve with every album. With respects to the new bassist, I very much appreciated Dirk's style and addition to the band, but Ben fits very well into the group. Hell, watch Alive at Red Rocks.

MrRhodes 09-10-2006 12:26 PM

Alive at Red Rocks is amazing.
