well yeah...duh <[I]little bit of personal info...i havent said "duh" since like 9th grade[/I]>

I like Incubus __sometimes__. They rock when you are meloncholy. I don't know about you guys, but I personally like their slow[er] songs (Drive, I Wish You Were Here, etc.) better than the "fast[er]" ones.

That's not to say that their fast songs are horrible...

Overall, I'd have to say that their OK...

Buh buh BUMP

you know. i just thought of it last night...the one thing i dislike about incubus is they dont have many sad songs. its good to have every now and then. i guess cause they dont have much to be sad about. and i guess they havent really caught that theme yet. beings that all thier albums have a certain theme

I think they do have sad songs but they don't express sadness in the clichèd acoustic guitar/djembe formula. They have slower songs like Monuments And Melodies, and then they have songs like, say, Smile Lines, which have quite melancholy lyrics but they don't go all Dashboard Confessional on us.

I think it's cool, though, that they're always happy or angry on stage. That makes for a good mosh pit. :thumb: I wish Brandon and Mike would go back to dreads and skate shoes though. This new surf pop image doesn't work for me. Even though I dress like that. :(

YEAH man! incubus in the .science - make yourself era. they were definetly killing it then, i mean you can tell that somethings just changed overall about their stage perforemance, not as lively, i mean dirk and mike used to god crazy sometimes on stage , now dirk is gone. kenny justy walks around. mikes mello-ed out, and brandon has too......still a good sho, but i prefer the old times.


and about the whole sad sont thing, i think warning is a sad song. not a cliche one like mentioned before the lyrics are pretty interesting, that girl walking around trying to warn people, now that her life has wasted away. not terribly sad but, a little remorsefull.

Shame on you! How about the Fungus Amongus era? Hmm? Didn't think of that, did you? You bad Incubus fan you.

I always hate people who are all "purist" about bands like Incubus and System ("Mezmerize sucks, I'm so hXc, I listened to System before they were popular..." etc etc); however, now that I own Enjoy Incubus, I can actually say their old stuff was [I]killer[/I]. Nothing wrong with the new stuff, I just prefer their older style.

Exactly what I was thinking. And besides, Mike has never looked good with any hairstyle other than dreads.

Yeah, Warning is the kind of song I was talking about. It's sad lyrics and the music is sad too, but in a very uniquely musical way.

yeah, this guy knows, lol. yeah i guess im a pretty sucky guy for forgetting fungus amongus, but o well. yeah people who say they are all hard core are gay, music is music dont diss someone cuz they havent " known" a band as long as you, lol. be happy they like good music.

the last time i saw them live, Brandon and Ben were all over the place. and out of all the times i've seen them live(6 times) i've never seen Mike move far from his pedels.

Thats because they are his life force.

I think Incustank has a better ring to it...

I live in colorado and my sister went to there show at red rocks where they taped the DVD.

Well even when Mike used to play hard and move and all that good stuff he'd bob all around but always stay behind his pedals and microphone.

When will singer/guitarists learn to build their fx into their guitars and use the Britney Spears headset mike? Seriously, those inventions are there for a reason.

I know I'm getting my Xtina Aguilera mike this xmas... :D

Well you see, mutant!, those mics are actually fakes *gasp* as neither Britney nor Chrstina actually sing live *bigger gasp*. I'd much rather see a singer actually sing live but not move around that much, instead of dancing like a slut and using a backing track. *biggest gasp*

Better yet let's invent a mind-controlled effects database that operates according to your brainwaves.

Dancing like a slut becomes cool the moment you pick up a $3000 axe. :D

Backing tracks = Evanescence = gay. [I]Sequencers[/I], on the other hand, = Muse = cool. :D :D

I'd love that.....

cool, ill definetly do it, but i dont know how to rip dvd's to the computer...

In our sixth form room we got a new CD player. Someone found a CD in their bag, put it in walked off. I was listening then realised this song was something by Incubus, i could easily tell Brandons vocals. I dunno what song it was, it isn't on S.C.I.E.N.C.E. or Make Yourself or Morning View, im thinking it might be on Crow Left of the Murder but i don't have that. It was a slowish song, light, think its called transactions or something, sure i heard that word being sung a lot..

Anyway, anyone have any idea what the song was?

He says 'transaction' in the chorus of talk shows on mute.

yeah it probably was that pretty much fits the description, thats pretty cool. but lol ,does ANYONE know how to rip dvd's to the computer so i can upload that aclotm dvd?

bump!

i think you need a dvd burner..or you need dvd player on your computer with a program neither of which i have cause i have the dvd too and cant rip it.

well its already been bumped, but i dunnno i guess i'm just being nice:
