Do more incubus. Such a criminally underrated band. Everyone mostly knows them for radio jams, but their deep cuts are where they really shine. One of the best live bands I've ever seen as well. MORE INCUBUS.
S.C.I.E.N.C.E and morning view are their best albums in my opinion. Different ends of the spectrum but very well done. Fungus amongus was alright, Make yourself was kind of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole catering to the skateboarding kids, a crow left of the murder was meh and light grenades was non climatic for me although somewhat catchy. After those I stopped listening, but I still dig out the others relatively often.
The album "Make Yourself" dropped at a very key point in my life. The title track was a gut punch, one of the initial sonic catalysts that makes me who I am today. To all of ya out there, Make Yourself.
Heard Incubus for the first time when they opened for Primus just before this album dropped. I was blown away, best opening act I have ever seen. This track still gets me every time, love it.
I can relate, this album and Morning View were so meaningful to me throughout my late teens/early twenties... all the memories and angst of those “growing up” years is brought back through this music. Never fails to amaze me that music has the power to feel so personal and yet so unifying through the shared experiences of others.
"The Warmth" by Incubus is to this day a song that I can listen to at anytime. Off the same album which I contend is their best not that the others aren't great.
that's the one with the sort of whale sounds in the beginning yes? it's been awhile since I've listened to "make yourself," so I just wanna double check... but if it's the song I'm thinking of, it's one of my favorites by incubus in general.
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is fantastic from beginning to end. First time I ever heard Incubus was a festival in 1999, and they were playing mostly songs from that album. I was hooked immediately. I've seen Incubus probably 7-8 times, and actually hung out with them backstage in '01. Unfortunately, I feel they'll really lost their way after A Crow Left Of The Murder.
My favorite band. They’re INSANELY eclectic. Some people don’t realize that because their biggest songs are usually straight forward pop rock songs, but they came up as pretty much brother bands with Deftones and System of a Down. Those guys all came up together. Incubus touches on rock, pop, metal, jazz, prog, electronic, and even Chinese Traditional music! Their guitarist went to Harvard to study music theory and has worked extensively with Hans Zimmer on movie scores. Check out Sick Sad Little World. If you want something really wild, check out their prog epic they made for the Halo soundtrack. It’s 4 different movements of Mike being an absolute creative wizard with the guitar.
They were my teenage band and got me into eclectic music. Then I graduated onto Mr Bungle, Faith No More etc which totally influenced Incubus. Now I'm into Ween, Talking Heads and Primus. The list goes on.
i loooooove the acoustic versions of songs. the chord choices are crazy, ive been playing for over 20 years and still get tripped up with some of the finger positions for their chords.
@@Zander_Schilling I feel ya on that. I learned how to play new skin pretty quick even though some of it has some unorthodox chord voicings with the finger placement but yeah mike plays some chords that aren't used much in rock music and they sound perfect.
Make Yourself was one of the biggest sonic influences I had as an adolescent. It blew open the doors to multiple genres that I had never encountered growing up in a Country/Christian music household. Will forever cherish this album.
“Summer Romance (Anti Gravity song) is one of my favorite Incubus songs. Jazzy, rocky, a little bit of everything . Jose Pasillas is in my top 3 of drummers❤️💜
Beyond being one of the best mixes Ive ever heard on a song, that band will be heard for the next 50+ years, and every generation that hears them will say they were COMPLETELY underrated!!! Incubus was the band we didn't deserve.
Mike einziger The guitarist is largely underrated that man makes some awesome ambient sounds like the ones you hear in the background on this track. It's cool because on some songs he works with the DJs samples on his guitar with the plethora of effects pedals he uses and allows the bass guitar and drums to take center stage..to me that makes him coming back in with the heavy riffs just that much more hard hitting💪
They’re volume swells that einsinger does, so everything’s on guitar. So much talent. Sick dad little world, a lot of the background stuff is the dj too when they play live at least. And of course Mike E, absolute beast
You've gotta give "A certain shade of green" a listen, also, the singer, Brandon Boyd, is in my opinion a massively underrated singer. You hear it a lot more in some of the newer things but he's really got a solid, solid voice.
@@heighleybaily8037 I was their with my husband at the time. He used to give me shit about my music. Some of his comments were: is it weird if I say how good looking he is ?? No dear it’s Chris cornell everyone thinks he’s beautiful ☺️ then perry was on stage with 4/5 women scantily clad dancing and he was in leather pants no shirt and all over the stage. He said “Theres so much going on I don’t know what to look at first.” Lol then incubus. He kept saying “oh I know this song “ I said see my music isn’t shit, you’ve been listening to it on the radio and you didn’t even know. I had such a migraine towards the end from screaming so much, but I just couldn’t stop. It was truly amazing.
I'm so glad you're getting to Incubus. My suggestions for next songs to cover not in any order. Sick sad little world (alive at red rocks version), Pendulous Threads, Aqueous Transmission, and the 3 different versions of their song Redefine. (Original, acoustic, and the rendition by their side project Time Lapse Consortium - this one song shows their progression as musicians through out these versions.)
Please do more from these guys! They're my absolute favorite band and their catalog is massive! Their sound evolves with each album and I HIGHLY recommend you check out the warmth from make yourself and megalomaniac from the album a crow left of the murder.
Never fully appreciated incubus till I saw them live for their morning view tour. These guys are fukn legit! Absolutely amazing musicians, great show! Been a huge fan ever since.
A recommendation for a follow up would be "Dig" by Incubus, but you would also need to have the lyrics. His voice and the emotion of the song based on the lyrics are just incredible. Love the channel, keep it going!
I was totally gonna mention Slipknot after hearing the opening comments here... You're forgiven, though, considering Sid sometimes gets lost with everything the other 7 of them are doing 😂
I think the best band to listen where DJ is recognizable and makes a big difference in a song is Linkin Park. Sid from Slipknot is awesome, but they also have Craig doing samples and keyboards, where Hahn from LP does everything alone
@Ryan I got screwed out of that concert aswell in SLC 1999 Black Sabbath reunion tour..freakin ozzy "got sick" and cancelled TWICE!!...if i remember Rob Zombie and Godsmack were on that tour aswell..
@@KeyOfGeebz keeping secrets of silent earth 3, or the crowing. Most would suggest welcome home, but while it's a great song, I think keeping secrets has more depth musically, at least in my opinion... Plus most who do welcome home end up listening/reacting to the video which cut out half the intro and outro. Mahalo Geebz! Can't wait for Coheed, we are one among the fence!!!!
Thanks for the reaction. Incubus is one of my favorite bands. This album and video was the beginning of more woman going to shows. Before this it was mostly guys. I did not mind that at all. My wife and her friends all love Incubus as well. We went to the 20 year anniversary tour of the album this song is from , Make yourself in 2019. They played the album from start to finish. Hoping they will do the same for Morning View. What I love about Incubus is that they have progressed with each album as they have aged. Some bands just keep trying to recreate their first album. Please react to Vitamin, The Warmth, Rogues, Pantomine, 11 AM or Karma, Come Back.
So funny, I recently started re-listening to Incubus in the last few weeks. They were a huge part of my junior high days, funny how Geebz just happened to get into them now :)
No matter what style of music they are performing it's done with thought, care, and passion. Love every album (8 is a little weak but still great!) Truly one of the great bands during this generation
The Guitarist, Mike Einziger, has pedals he's swelling in and out during the verses. He get's crazy inventive with his pedals (he has a whole pedal array he calls the "Gonkulator") DJ Killmore does more scratching in this song, but he does do loops in some songs and also plays the keyboard. This album in particular, the snare sound just has SO much attack, and the immediate airi-ness to it.. I LOVE the snare sound in this album.
Incubus musically are just brilliant bass fat smooth melodic, drums on point technical, guitar effects chords are just sick, he figures out a way to say ok this is A D G what notes can I add to the chord to make it unique and sound different!! U get funky ass chords learning there music…. Chords u don’t see anywhere… and sounds !! And the DJ is wicked good and just suits them so much!! Underrated band they really are!!!
I love their stuff. Mike Einzinger's guitar work is incredible. There's a reason Incubus is one of the only 90s alternative bands anybody still likes. You should check out Jose Pasillas's drum clinic where he plays over a live recording of Sick Sad Little World.
Saw these guys for the first time in 2002 in Duluth, MN. Absolutely brilliant show! I left with more sweat on me from other people than my own. I remember walking outside after the concert and we were all freezing in the cold October air. Man I miss college.
These guys were in their early twenties when this came out. In some of their early tracks you can tell they multi-tracked live, not bothering to remove some artistic bleed. Definitely worth checking out tracks like; Calgone, Nebula, While all the Vultures Feed, Quicksand, Sick Sad Little World, Pistola, Makeout Party, and the Odyssey collection. Their DVD from Red Rocks Colorado, 2004 is one of the coolest live shows I've seen. I'm also a big fan so maybe bias.
I'm a little late to the party, but I feel I need to share this. Incubus was involved in the "Halo 2" videogame soundtrack. They did around four instrumental compositions I think. It will blow your mind lol. Also the literal best live recording I have ever watched is "Incubus: Alive At Red Rocks 2004"
so awesome to hear a fresh perspective on these songs some of us have loved most of our lives! The only time I've seen them live was actually in HI at The Republik
Geebz, you've done it again with another one of my high school memories! I appreciate everything you do with these reactions! I may be many miles away but damn everytime you react to a song to my life soundtrack, makes it seem like you were part of my highschool years. Thank you geebz.
HUMMMMM!! Not Stars, though. It’s just not as layered or as amazing as The Scientists, Isle of the Cheetah, or Afternoon With the Axolotls. Something from the new album would be cool too. I would LOVE to see what he thinks of the arrangement and the dynamics on Shapeshifter.
every time I catch up I see you're listening to a song/band I know well. Man I would not have started with a such a radio type song. SCIENCE would be the album to show you. Great work my man, you're very appreciated:)
Huge fan man!! Just checked out your reactions and I'm amazed at the diffrent types of music your listening to. From incubus to shpongle, to polyphia to heavy metal. I'm very impressed with your open mindedness. I feel like we're a rare breed
Dude you're becoming one of my favorite youtube channels, between your explanations, your mannerisms and your voice, and your incredible knowledge, it's all ~chefs kiss~
Love Incubus, great breakdown - Brandon Boyd is a fantastic vocalist, love his voice. Also, I'll bring up TESSERACT since you've not done them for a while, please react to TESSERACT FEAT. MARTIN GRECH - HEXES (LIVE IN STUDIO). It is so, so good! Can't wait for you to check it out. Have a nice day!
Incubus is my favourite band, I have followed them for about 20 years. Listen to them everyday. This has brought me so much joy this morning 😁 Also so great to read all the lovely comments from other Incubus fans. We are the best 😄
Hey Geebz!! that lush pad sound in the verses that you’re hearing is actually the guitarist Mike Einziger! He’s definitely a wiz in terms of guitar effects 🎸
the perils of being in 3d ....has there ever been a more apt description of life?? BB is a god-tier level songwriter, singer and just all-around musical talent and incubus is the most influential band in my life ...science is top 5 albums all time for me
True story: just before these guys got big, I saw them open for 311, McNichols Arena, Denver, CO in like 1998. Booed off the stage after like a 15 min bongo solo. Dude must have been stoned. XD Turns out they're actually pretty good.
Please do more Incubus. They are one of the most unique bands of their Era where every album they evolve but still retain an authenticity of who they are throughout. The album Morning View is a top 5 desert island album. Right up there with Led Zeppelin IV, Allman Bros at Fillmore east, Dark Side of the Moon, and Metallica S&M
You can't imagine my feeling of you reacting to truly my life's soundtrack. I remember buying this CD the day it came out and you can't imagine how much this track meant to me. Listening to it now through your comments it's almost like hearing it for the first time. May I suggest to you "Invincible" by TOOL, in my opinion Joe Barressi did the best recording of drums and even better CYMBALS in the entire history.
Do more incubus. Such a criminally underrated band. Everyone mostly knows them for radio jams, but their deep cuts are where they really shine. One of the best live bands I've ever seen as well. MORE INCUBUS.
Thissss. I love them so much and everyone needs to experience them!
Agreed...
100% john way underrated ...live there amazing
Agreed
@@alrose6915 What are they doing now? I always liked them a lot.
Aight I'm convinced you have a direct line to the playlist on my PC.
Dude same
Same, same 😆
Who would say that there are still some connaisseurs around in this day and age...
Seriously, the audioslave, tool, System of a Down and other bangers he’s been doing have been sweet
Yep here 2...I'm not alone. Lol
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is literally one of the best albums of all time. Everything on that album is gold.
These videos rule 🤟
Agreed, definitely in my top 10.
100% agree.
Too bad they don’t play Songs off S.C.I.E.N.C.E. that often. I’ve seen them 4 times and I’ve only heard New Skin and Vitamin live.
S.C.I.E.N.C.E and morning view are their best albums in my opinion. Different ends of the spectrum but very well done. Fungus amongus was alright, Make yourself was kind of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole catering to the skateboarding kids, a crow left of the murder was meh and light grenades was non climatic for me although somewhat catchy.

Nothing but facts here.
The album "Make Yourself" dropped at a very key point in my life. The title track was a gut punch, one of the initial sonic catalysts that makes me who I am today. To all of ya out there, Make Yourself.
Same man. Right outta high school and Bam this hits like Mike Tyson, right in the face. What a great time for music the 90's were.
This was kind of right on the cusp
Heard Incubus for the first time when they opened for Primus just before this album dropped. I was blown away, best opening act I have ever seen. This track still gets me every time, love it.
Make yourself remains one of the top 10 most influential albums in my life

Never fails to amaze me that music has the power to feel so personal and yet so unifying through the shared experiences of others.
I love that you are recognizing Mike as the great guitarist that he is. He’s so incredibly underrated.
Incubus “The Warmth”
That was my favorite 20 years ago
Live Morning View Sessions of course😉
100%
my fav track of theirs
Hell yeah
@@perhvarnes same and still listen regularly
"The Warmth" by Incubus is to this day a song that I can listen to at anytime. Off the same album which I contend is their best not that the others aren't great.

@@jillybeangaming thats the one!
Such a good song, definitely give The Warmth a listen
Give 'A Certain Shade of Green' from S.C.I.E.N.C.E. a go - absolute banger 🤘🏻
Love the entire album, and that's arguably my favorite track
^ This.
‘Glass’ would be my favorite track off S.C.I.E.N.C.E. But CSoG is killer as well.
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is fantastic from beginning to end. First time I ever heard Incubus was a festival in 1999, and they were playing mostly songs from that album. I was hooked immediately.

Sick Sad Little World is my favorite, as a looong time listener of them, it's so damn good.
Make Yourself is a killer album. Not a single weak track & let it play
One of the few albums I play beginning to end with zero skips. It's perfect.
one of those rare albums that's literally great start to finish... not too many albums I can say that about...
I respect Make Yourself but I love S.C.I.E.N.C.E
Facts.
@@HiddenHandMedia This is the way.
Most of the ambient stuff is guitars, their guitarist is legit.
Their drummer is sick af too
His kit is ridiculous. Reminds me of Brain's setup
i loooooove the acoustic versions of songs. the chord choices are crazy, ive been playing for over 20 years and still get tripped up with some of the finger positions for their chords.
Drive is one of the hardest songs to play I've tried so far. The chords are just so weird
@@Zander_Schilling I feel ya on that. I learned how to play new skin pretty quick even though some of it has some unorthodox chord voicings with the finger placement but yeah mike plays some chords that aren't used much in rock music and they sound perfect.
@@Rtapley89 yeah, Mike is almost like a Jazz guitarist deciding to do alternative rock. I love his chord choices and ambient tones.
Make Yourself was one of the biggest sonic influences I had as an adolescent. It blew open the doors to multiple genres that I had never encountered growing up in a Country/Christian music household. Will forever cherish this album.
Are you me?
I've been WAITING for Incubus!!! Listen to everything dude!! Love you! Keep it up!!!
Ya almost no one does them and they are missing out
It would be great if you could check out some of their tracks from Morning View, perhaps Just A Phase or Aqueous Transmission!
Goodness i do like me Aqueous Transmission
Aqueous or Under My Umbrella would be sweet
Omg yes, that album is still in my top 100 and I listen to everything from jazz to heavy metal so it takes a damn good album to make that list
I forgot Just a Phase
Battlestar Scratchalactica would also be nice :]
Definitely should keep exploring 'Incubus' as a whole. One of those bands where everyone is a gifted musician.
When I listen to Incubus, so do my neighbors. PAAAARDON MEEEEE WHILE I BURST INTO FLAMES
“Summer Romance (Anti Gravity song) is one of my favorite Incubus songs. Jazzy, rocky, a little bit of everything . Jose Pasillas is in my top 3 of drummers❤️💜

Saw them at a lollapalloza one year with janes addiction, audioslave, and queens of the Stone Age. Amazing live show !!

Mike absolutely kills it in Sick Sad Little World. Definitely would want you to dig into the Incubus discography like you did with Tool.

Sick Sad Little World is one of my favorite songs ever. The guitar solo that Mike pulls off in that song will blow your mind.
The bass guitar is so forward in this song.
I think I was a Junior or Senior in High School when this first came out. This song will never get old.
IIRC, on this album their guitarist was using Mesa Tremoverbs with PRS Semihollow IIs. Tremendous tone.
Further down the river is my get back to zen song. I love this band
My favorite band man! Thank you! More more more incubus 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sick Sad Little World!!
Please do more of incubus
I'm a little late to the party, but I feel I need to share this. Incubus was involved in the "Halo 2" videogame soundtrack. They did around four instrumental compositions I think. It will blow your mind lol. Also the literal best live recording I have ever watched is "Incubus: Alive At Red Rocks 2004"
Great band. Really unique sound and always thought they were underrated
so awesome to hear a fresh perspective on these songs some of us have loved most of our lives! The only time I've seen them live was actually in HI at The Republik
Geebz, you've done it again with another one of my high school memories! I appreciate everything you do with these reactions! I may be many miles away but damn everytime you react to a song to my life soundtrack, makes it seem like you were part of my highschool years. Thank you geebz.
If you are doing more 90s rock check out "Stars" by Hum- really overlooked track from that time.
Hum is awesome! Love those guys.
Fun fact, Hum released an album called "Inlet" last year.
@@Superevilfrog and it's fantastic!
Second that
HUMMMMM!!
Not Stars, though. It’s just not as layered or as amazing as The Scientists, Isle of the Cheetah, or Afternoon With the Axolotls. Something from the new album would be cool too. I would LOVE to see what he thinks of the arrangement and the dynamics on Shapeshifter.
every time I catch up I see you're listening to a song/band I know well. Man I would not have started with a such a radio type song. SCIENCE would be the album to show you. Great work my man, you're very appreciated:)
Huge fan man!! Just checked out your reactions and I'm amazed at the diffrent types of music your listening to. From incubus to shpongle, to polyphia to heavy metal. I'm very impressed with your open mindedness. I feel like we're a rare breed
Dude you're becoming one of my favorite youtube channels, between your explanations, your mannerisms and your voice, and your incredible knowledge, it's all ~chefs kiss~
Love Incubus, great breakdown - Brandon Boyd is a fantastic vocalist, love his voice.
Also, I'll bring up TESSERACT since you've not done them for a while, please react to TESSERACT FEAT. MARTIN GRECH - HEXES (LIVE IN STUDIO). It is so, so good! Can't wait for you to check it out. Have a nice day!
off of the science album "deep inside" is an awesome song to check out
Incubus is my favourite band, I have followed them for about 20 years. Listen to them everyday. This has brought me so much joy this morning 😁 Also so great to read all the lovely comments from other Incubus fans. We are the best 😄
Hey Geebz!! that lush pad sound in the verses that you’re hearing is actually the guitarist Mike Einziger! He’s definitely a wiz in terms of guitar effects 🎸
the perils of being in 3d ....has there ever been a more apt description of life?? BB is a god-tier level songwriter, singer and just all-around musical talent and incubus is the most influential band in my life ...science is top 5 albums all time for me
True story: just before these guys got big, I saw them open for 311, McNichols Arena, Denver, CO in like 1998. Booed off the stage after like a 15 min bongo solo. Dude must have been stoned. XD Turns out they're actually pretty good.
Please do more Incubus. They are one of the most unique bands of their Era where every album they evolve but still retain an authenticity of who they are throughout. The album Morning View is a top 5 desert island album. Right up there with Led Zeppelin IV, Allman Bros at Fillmore east, Dark Side of the Moon, and Metallica S&M
You can't imagine my feeling of you reacting to truly my life's soundtrack. I remember buying this CD the day it came out and you can't imagine how much this track meant to me. Listening to it now through your comments it's almost like hearing it for the first time. May I suggest to you "Invincible" by TOOL, in my opinion Joe Barressi did the best recording of drums and even better CYMBALS in the entire history.
Really enjoying you ‘decomposing’ the last few days. Will be tuning in to everything you listen to! Cheers
MORE INCUBUS please! Thank you for reacting to my favorite band of all time. :)
Incubus... Dig, Promises Promises, Into the Summer
An absolutely incredible song
Please do more Incubus!!
Wish you were Here
