It is with GREAT pleasure for me to introduce to all of you who don't know INCUBUS. For those of you who know me, you know that they are my ALL-TIME favorite band. I have been listening to them since a young age and I credit that all to my rad older sister, Haley. Their album, Morning View, was the anthem to my adolescence and I'm pretty confident that I know every word to every song. I canNOT even begin to describe how much I LOVE this band. They have managed to cultivate listeners all over the world with their brilliant lyrics, UNBELIEVABLE vocals and their original sound. I swear I find a new genius lyric/phrase OFTEN when I listen to them. I can't even fathom the amount of talent Brandon Boyd (lead singer) and the band members hold. One of the key components of their songs is their KILLER guitarist, Michael Einziger. I encourage you to listen to Aqueous Transmission in particular because he absolutely rocks your world with the Pipa. My words may seem calm while I'm writing this but I'll have you know that I'm currently BLASTING their album Moments And Melodies and pawing at the youtube videos of Brandon performing live (the biggest heart-eyes EVER).
Alright, so now that I've embarrassingly ranted about my obsession (which I feel like I still have so much more to say but this post would be more of a novel then a blog entry) I will let you enjoy the greatness of their work. Of course I couldn't just pick ONE song, in fact I wish I could post every song they've created but I have attached just a few of my favorites. And I have been waiting PATIENTLY to post about them until their debut of their new single, Absolution Calling, so, naturally, that is the first track. The rest are those that, if I had to pick only 5 songs to listen to for the rest of my life, these would be the 5. Prepare your ears for some of the best music this world has to offer and I guarantee goose bumps are headed your way.
You're welcome (in advance)
