They've been playing the Anna Molly video a fair bit here recently.

All I can say is I want the whole album.

The singer sounds at his best imo (Maybe his voice has been played with in the studio?), the guitarist as always is just ****en pro, the drummer is tight, I have no comment on the bassist, but in the video clip he's definately got a groove going on... I can't ****en wait.

Edit: At the start of the video, you see the singer's tatoo, which kinda looks like a Peacock's eye to me, but does anyone know what it really is? I really like it, although I don't think I would get one that big...

P.S. He looks ****en buff.

I want to know a bit more about the band, do they all have formal training in music, or is it just kinda natural talent? Because they write (imo), some of the best music ever, if it's just all natural talent, there's still hope for me :D

I agree.

I love thew new song, though.

If you're talking about the thing on his forearm, the drummer designed it. He has one too.

Seriously, my standards in men are [I]much[/I] higher than my standards in women, and Brandon Boyd is one of the, like, two guys on this planet I would make out with. srsly. I would.

As far as I know, the guitarist is the only one with formal music training. But Ben the bassist has a [I]lot[/I] of experience as a sort of session/stage musician, so he knows his theory n shiz. But yes, a lot of it is natural talent. There is hope for you yet. :D

Heard those samples and I'm very intrigued.
F[size=2]u[/size]cking great band and it should be another awesome album this year along with Mastodon's Blood Mountain, Deftones Saturday Night Wrist and others.

Incubus are awesome, love there guitar sound.

Fav songs:

Make yourself
Wish you were here
Circles

New bassist seems cool, hope there new cd is as good!

Peace.

I like the new bassist. :) And as far as the guitar sound goes, Sick Sad Little World ftw, k?

Incubus is overrated...IMO.

I'm pretty sure everyone in this thread would disagree.

Yes...sadly, oh well.

^Good posts, man.
F[size=2]u[/size]cking mindblowing.

Yo Vincent, either give valid points supporting your argument, or find something better to do than to diss bands amongst their fans.

I'm not really dissing them, I was only sharing my opinion...people get so offended these days. The main reason I said that was because I've got a friend who's completley obsessed with them and talks about them all the time, it gets annoying after a while.

So you could have said just a bit more then "Incubus is overrated...IMO.", that's completely pointless. People get so offended, because you just walk in out of nowhere and say stupid ****.

I like the new song [I]alot[/I]. Do you guys like the fast or slow incubus?

Fast Incubus [I]really[/I] does it for me. Sick Sad Little World and ACLOTM are prime examples. And Smile Lines. Yay for sentimental songs that I associate with my ex-gf.

\(^_^)/

\( ._. )/

Vincent, you [I]are[/I] dissing the band. You are saying they are not as good as people give them credit for, which means you're saying they're bad, in a roundabout way.

And your reason is invalid. "My friend goes ooon and ooon about how good they are, and that's annoying, thus they're bad." Your logic is flawed.

This is an internet forum for god's sake calm down. I didn't "walk in" I clicked on the link and posted a comment, thats all.

Same **** man, read analogy.

How is this different from walking into a conversation and going "lol ur band sux"?

You guys take things too far, and are all too eager for an arguement. I didn't say "lol ur band sux" I don't talk like that. I said "Incubus is overrated in my opinion". I didn't mean to say (type) it in a "Incubus is overrated!", I meant "I think Incubus is overrated.." and I explained that it was a pretty pointless post and the reason I did it was because my friend has been pissing me off lately about them. I'm sorry if I offended you all so greatly, please accept my apology, or deal with it.

OK, I (for one) accept your apology.

But we are not taking things too far. We have not threatened you with spam attacks or "my one hacker friend". The fact is that for all intents and purposes you came into a conversation about a band just to say "they suck" without giving any valid reason or motivation for this.

As it stands right now, your opinion on Incubus is completely invalid as the only reason you've given for it thus far is that your friend is annoying.

All we want is for people [I]not[/I] to head into band threads and slag said bands off without proper reason. What you did can almost be considered spam.

No hard feelings dude. I'm just trying to keep this community nice and clean, same as the rest of us. 'cept maybe Acid Bath and Aria and a few other jackas$es.

Alright, thanks. But I mentioned early that I admit it is a stupid and pointless post anyways, and provided the reason for it was because of my friend pissing me off, I was actually talking to them at the moment that I made that post, and that is probably what had driven me to doing it. Thanks though.

*high five*

SO! :D When's the album being released?

Not much a fan of Incubus really anymore, although Morning View is great.

Nov. 28 in the states.

Has anyone downloaded the Preview mp3 with about 10 x 20sec snippets from some various songs off light grenades? sounds quite good ,Anna Molly is a great first single yea?

i know im a lil late on this...but overrated by whom?
all the magazines i have read hardly mention incubus
they hardly get cover issues anymore
their videos dont get too much play (well i dont know about that cause i dont watch MTV or anything like that)

the only people that would overrate them is their fans and thats what FANS are supposed to do.

but otherwise they arnt very overrated at all

Point made, but let it die, the man apologised. :thumb:

I'm srsly amped for the new album, like you guys have no idea.

Mike and Brandon go through the whole album. what each song means and stuff. enjoyincubus.

Anna Molly sounded... Incubus.

I can't really judge the rest only with that song.

any sign of them putting their album out on myspace before they release it or anything??
