Incubus band review5/9/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() It would be easy to say that Incubus had gone downhill with this release, even to say “Incubus sold out with ‘Make Yourself.’” This however, is not the case. With their third-full length release “Make Yourself” in 1999, Incubus went commercial. Despite having a somewhat large fan base with “Fungus Amongus” and “S.C.I.E.N.C.E.,” Incubus did not gain the mainstream success that they are associated with in the present day. ![]() Both of Incubus’ first two records utilize an accelerated, and sometimes frenzied pace, without a great deal of variety. “S.C.I.E.N.C.E” is truly a wild experience, with Brandon Boyd screaming his lungs out and Dirk Lance tearing apart the foundation of the tracks with his bass. Incubus’ sophomore effort “S.C.I.E.N.C.E.” may remain as the band’s most innovative album, by losing some of the funk, but adding a great deal of chaos and brutality. “Fungus Amongus” was a record that the world had never seen the likes of, and was flawed, yet enjoyable. The 1995 debut “Fungus Amongus” was an obscure release to say the least an intriguing fusion of rap, metal, and funk. With an extremely talented core, Incubus produced two completely contradictory records, each with a distinct sound. Not necessarily from the standpoint of their success, but rather how they kept fans while their music continued to changed. Review Summary: Incubus goes mainstream, but for the better. ![]()
