Yeah. That's not a bad thing though - the band was evolving and more people were liking them.

I know [i]I'd[/i] want hordes of raving fangirls chanting "take it off!" all the time. :D

I love them too. But ive gotten to this point where everytime I watch Red Rocks, and all I see is girls, it kinda makes me feel like I'm listening to someone like Ronan Keating.

They really need more guy fans.

...And yet somehow I don't know any girls who can name even one of their songs.

This, my friend, ....is excatly my point.:cool:

mutant! 11-09-2005 12:37 PM

:upset: True. But let me rephrase: I don't know any girls who call themselves Incubus fans.

I'll be indoctrinating my girlfriend in an effort to rectify this situation.

Haha nice. I know maybe 7 girls who can name songs (not just singles). One even swoons over their songs whenever I played them, but I don't like her so I started playing originals and just jamming in class instead.

Skyler 11-09-2005 04:14 PM

I've only known one really big Incubus fan that was a girl. She got two tickets for her birthday to the ACLOTM tour and she invited me.

Sound Boy 11-10-2005 08:00 PM

your out of your element.

does anyone have any Kilmore tracks? like does he have solo anything? i'd like to see that. or DJ Lyfe vs. Kilmore...thatd blow my mind:confused:

mutant! 11-12-2005 10:14 AM

Haha, Lyfe vs Kilmore would kick some major booty.

I just bought and listened to Enjoy Incubus for the first time. HOOOOOOLY COOOW I've forgotten how cool Incubus were. That early material really showcases their progressive rock side. It's the closest I've heard to progressive funk. I'm digging it, of course. :thumb: It has reinspired me to blend classical music, funk, progressive and rock in one big melting pot.

Sound Boy 11-12-2005 02:18 PM

sounds good...but your a lil late on the melting...

other than that if Enjoy was a full album it'd be my favorite album. i think Enjoy incubus is why i dont listen to FA alot. i think the DJ completes incubus as a whole. "hilikus" has to be one of the dopest tracks incubus has. and i love how Brandon does the lil "mert" after the first chorus.. but yeah its a great 6 track*plus secret song* ep.

enjoimx 11-12-2005 03:07 PM

same here, enjoy incubus was a great album, if it was full it would be amazing, even more amazing than it already is. it a real peek into their creativeness.

enjoimx 11-15-2005 05:55 PM

err, BUMP

Sound Boy 11-15-2005 11:05 PM

im gonna make my kids listen to incubus.

Half Life 11-16-2005 01:23 AM

Incubus owns hands down(check avatar).

Jose is my bitch...and I have a secret plot to steal Brandons vocal chords...

Son of Northern Darkness 11-16-2005 04:10 AM

I like incubus.... I think thery're a really respectable band! I love "A Crow left of Murder".... Very cool album. I hate the way that Hoobastank is like a carbon copy of Incubus!! Hoobastank sucks balls!

Dude, that's BS. Hoobastank sound [I]nothing[/I] like Incubus. At all. Hell, look at their roots: Incubus started out as funk rock, Hoobastank was ska-punk. Their lineups are totally different, and so are their styles. Hoobastank has much more of a punk element, whereas Incubus is sitting firmly in the rock genre.

And besides, the bands started out around the same time and they're good friends so they won't rip each other off. They have worked together though - the sax solo at the end of Summer Romance was done by the former saxophonist for Hoobastank.

Sound Boy 11-16-2005 10:56 AM

umm i beg to differ...Hoobastank does sound alot like Incubus...but like the least talented version. but if you wanna hear a song that sounds like a carboncopied incubus song listen to "i dont know" by Lostprophets, its even got the dj scratches and everything

mutant! 11-16-2005 11:37 AM

Not true. Hoobastank definitely have their own sound. I'm going to go listen to them now, so I can be sure.

...OK, I've listened to a few Hoobastank tracks. The only stuff I've been able to found that sounds like Brandon and the boys is the chorus riff to Crawling In The Dark. Even that has more of a punk element to it, as far as chords and feel is concerned. I can easily analyze all the different aspects of their music and show you where they differ and where they overlap - I can promise you there's more difference than similarity there. I respect Hoobastank for being who they are; like Incubus, they've changed a [I]lot[/I] since their original incarnation.

I assume that Lostprophets track is on Start Something - which track is it? (I don't know the track names.)

Sound Boy 11-16-2005 03:07 PM

its track 1 on start something

i see most of Hoobaincubus in their first album with "crawling in the dark" the newest album with that "reason" song on it was crappy and didnt sound much like incubus. its mostly the vocals and guitar that they take after. i guess its just me but i think Hooba is influenced by incubus.

black.hole.sun 11-16-2005 04:22 PM

I would say that there is some element of similarity between the two, but Incubus is far more "rock," for lack of a better word, than Hoobastank. Also Incubus has a far more diverse sound IMO.

Skyler 11-16-2005 08:12 PM

We're doing a featured artist thread in the guitar forum.

I wrote one on Mike Einziger. Check it out.

Spiritofmosa 11-16-2005 08:18 PM

the closest similarties between incubus , hoobastank and lostprophets etc. is the vocals.

enjoimx 11-16-2005 08:51 PM

but brandon no doubt, has the best voice , IMO. i think his voice is absolutley amazing.
