Exclusive: Incubus Signs to Island Records, Two EPs Coming in 2015

When Incubus appeared at night-one of KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Xmas this past Saturday, it marked the band’s first proper public show in a year.
The reason for the band’s absence from the live circuit is they’ve been heavily immersed in recording, which has gone well. Very well. “The recording has been fantastic, it’s been amazing,” Mike Einziger told Billboard.com.
As is so often the case, the recording has been going smoothly because the So Cal band, without a label home since their deal with Epic ended in 2012, has been working on their own schedule and with little pressure.
Brandon Boyd Talks New Band Sons of the Sea, Future of Incubus: Watch
“We didn’t have any plans to make this record,” Einziger said. “Just having no horizon to look at was important for us. We needed that.”
And now the quintet, who just finalized a deal with Island Records this week, can work according to their own vision, which includes a non-traditional release. “We’re planning on releasing two installments that will total an album, two EPs,” Einziger explained. “We’re hoping to put out the first one in February or March, then the summer.”
Einziger filled us in on a few songs on the two EPs, which the band is producing. “We’ve always been a self-reliant band,” he said.
Incubus debuted the lead single, “Trust Fall,” at Almost Acoustic Xmas. Of the song, Einziger said, “It’s pretty indicative of where we are now. It’s pretty ambitious.”
Einziger said fans can expect diversity from the new material. “Most of the music we’ve written is high energy,” he said. “[But] we’ve written our slowest song, but also our heaviest song.” The latter is “Make Out Party.”
There’s a track called “Dance Like You’re Dumb,” which Einziger calls, “Our version of a loud aggressive rock song. It’s definitely not what someone would expect from us.”
Einziger is happy with the diversity on the two EPs. “This is what the band sounds like in 2014, 2015.”

Decent tune. I think the chorus is pretty lackluster but it's growing on me.

Re: The Official INCUBUS Thread
I dig it. It's defintely a new sound, but it's got that upbeat quality of their older material.

Live clip of new song "Into the Summer" -- https://twitter.com/adriangarro/status/ ... 53824?s=09
Sounds pretty cool. The quality is pretty good and the clip is almost two minutes long.

Official music video for "Into The Summer"
It has sort of a fun 80s vibe, but not really my cup of tea when it comes to this band. I miss the A Crow Left of the Murder sound.

Agreed, though I actually miss the pre-A Crow Left of the Murder sound.MidnightToker wrote:Official music video for "Into The Summer"

Re: The Official INCUBUS Thread
Yeah, I'm a big fan of Make Yourself and Morning View too. But if I had to pick a favorite album, it'd be Crow. Those three records for me are peak Incubus. Some good songs on Light Grenades as well (Dig especially) but I think was the beginning of the downward spiral. I didn't like the 8 album at all.VigilantSteve wrote: Agreed, though I actually miss the pre-A Crow Left of the Murder sound.

Re: The Official INCUBUS Thread
Yeah, my 3 are S.C.I.E.N.C.E., Make Yourself, and Morning View. A Crow Left of the Murder and Light Grenades are both still good albums too though, but I could tell even at the time that those albums were the beginning of a sound that I wouldn't enjoy as much. If Not Now, When? is not a good album at all, IMO...not specifically terrible mind you, just completely forgettable music. 8 was a little better, but still not as good as their music from the late '90s through the early '00s.MidnightToker wrote:Yeah, I'm a big fan of Make Yourself and Morning View too.

Re: The Official INCUBUS Thread
Exactly. They totally lost the Incubus magic after Light Grenades. It's too bad. I remember listening to some of those songs from SCIENCE to Light Grenades for the first time and thinking, "Oh my god, this is incredible. This band is so good." But sadly, I haven't felt that way in over a decade.VigilantSteve wrote: Yeah, my 3 are S.C.I.E.N.C.E., Make Yourself, and Morning View.

However, I like Brandon Boyd's (Sons of the Sea?) solo work. Some of those songs have the magic. Lady Black, A Night Without Cars, etc. I think I prefer the first solo album to the second.
