Incubus DRIVE ~ Reaction and Dissection ~ The Decomposer Lounge Music Reactions
I don't see enough reactors doing Incubus songs. They are under appreciated.
One of my favorite bands of all time - Brandon Boyd's voice is gold.
@@Atodaso yeah I have been listening to Incubus since the Science album. They have always been one of my favorite bands in my playlist.
I have been listening to Incubus since I was 10, I am 29 now and I still love them. Brandon Boyd is a champ still to this day
I mean they aren’t really under appreciated. Maybe under appreciated with reactors though
Let them stay how theyre valued. If you know someones good, you dont need validation
Make sure you hit some earlier Incubus!! Fungus Amongous and S.C.I.E.N.C.E were amazing albums and sound completely different than the rest of the Incubus catalog. "Deep Inside" is a fantastic track off the latter.
I like where your heads at!
So many awesome songs but you nailed the best one! Deep Inside is epic!! Still my fave Incubus song and I’ve been a fan over 20 years.
Legendary Classic Album...Criminally Underrated
I bought fungus amungus and listened to it a thousand times. It actually makes me sad and disappointed that nothing else this band did was anywhere close to as good as that album. The more popular they got I just became more bitter. Not even at incubus themselves, but just the overall idea that you have to put out pop shit to have a career. Or at least, in the early 2000s that’s how it was. I think incubus just stopped trying to be original or interesting when they realized they could make way more money doing way less interesting songs. This song is a perfect example. You can see how they are toying with trying to sound more like the Backstreet Boys because showing off your abs sells records. Incubus is just one of those bands that I hate because they could have been so much better, and were so much better, than what they ultimately turned into.
Man s.c.i.e.n.c.e for the win! Redefine!
Mike Einziger is the guitarist, he's insane.
Fun fact: Mike co-wrote "Wake Me Up" with Avicii! "The Warmth" is another great Incubus tune.
+1 for The Warmth, definitely in my top 10.
The Warmth Is THE TUNE ❤️
Fun fact #2: Mike is a composer as well. :D
One of my favorite Incubus songs is “Are you in?” It has a similar chillness to “Drive”
Has such a funky bass line
Incubus is such a vibe. This song in particular really puts me in a serene place every single time
They always strike me as "after party" tunes. When the bulk of the guests have left and it's just your core few chilling, not quite ready to all head home just yet--or too wasted to head home but not yet passed out. Lol.
Not sure you’ve done “Stellar” yet but that’s a must listen from these guys
04:00 it is indeed a single Mike recording. They have one guitarist called Mike Einziger ;P
And additional fun fact: In German "Einziger" means "the only one"
That moment made me chuckle 😄
Yes...what a beautiful song to react to mr. Geebz!! perhaps "Wish you were here" next?
Love me some Incubus. Great vibes. Two tracks I'd throw in for review with fun engineering: "Sick Sad Little World" and "In the Company of Wolves". Neither are radio hits, but I feel these two have a lot of strength in composition that Geebz could dig into.
Good call on SSLW for sure.
Agreed, Sick Sad Little World is a masterpiece!
Sick sad little world was AMAZING live at the House of Blues in 2007... I'm getting old😅
In The Company of Wolves is wild, love that track.
@@CraigKeidel the second half of the song has such a smooth groove
Another great track - their album Morning View is really great and has such a nice chilled out vibe.
Definitely their best work. That whole album has a very distinct feel from beginning to end. It reminds me of having the perfect, chilled-out lifestyle. Living by the beach in a beautiful, pristine area that's also close to the city so you have the best of both worlds. Just being on the outskirts so you can surf and be by the beach whenever you want while still having the city and suburbs right down the street.
Do Sick Sad Little World please! It has one of the best guitar solos I’ve ever heard.
And a greeeeeaaaattt bass line!
My favorite Incubus song. Everything in that song is the band at their best.
Seconded! What an amazing song!
Amazing song!
Was just going to suggest this one as well
Dig is another great one by Incubus
S.C.I.E.N.C.E from Incubus is still in my Top 5 of favorite albums! So good.
You need some Faith No More in your life my man, and some break downs of Mike’s amazing vocals and Billy’s bass is playing is crazy good!!
Too many people sleeping on FNM! If you're a fan, check out this aussie band called Twelve Foot Ninja, they are dope as fuck!
My friend would play guitar and we would do a group sing along to this song many years ago. Great times
A perfect circle has an almost incubus sounding track in three libras
Absolutely! I 100% agree
So many killer incubus songs, great band! Morning View is their best album imo, every song is A+
They rented a house on the beach in Cali to make it and all lived together there during the recording.
Morning View is a great breakup album.
Morning View?! Dude! Over Science, Make Yourself, A Crow… and Light Grenades? Really?
The thing I love about this band is that their sound is so clearly influenced by their recording process. Morning View feels like a beach house retreat, A Crow Left of the Murder is equally amazing but haunting and kinda dark and so clearly comes from a different experience. But still so uniquely Incubus.
@@jordanbenson2980 *Picks up 8* You dropped this one, my dude.
@@CraigKeidel what?
Incubus is an amazing band. Mike Einzinger's guitar work is incredible, and Brandon Boyd's vocals can't be beat.
I really dig their early stuff, too. The stuff they were making when they were teenagers on S.C.I.E.N.C.E. like A Certain Shade of Green, Nebula, Summer-Romance (Anti-Gravity Love Song) which is actually very well suited to a live acoustic version.
Always love to get back into Incubus; they have such a diverse, yet immensely recognizable sound compared to all the other bands out there. A song that really showcases a softer side to them is _Adolescents_ off of If Not Now, When?
I saw a few others have recommended _Wish You Were Here,_ which has phenomenal vocals on it.
Thanks, Geebz! Keep on rockin', awwwright!
Incubus was one of the bands I tried to use to show my kids that bands tend to have a "sound" that is distinctively theirs despite what songs and tracks it might be. That when you're familiar with their "sound" you can tell when a song is theirs even if you've never heard it before. Linkin Park was another example I used at that time for them.
@@jessicashenefield1546 Oh yeah, not only Chester and Mike, but all of the members with Linkin Park made that band stand out just as much as Nirvana did.
I remember when my dad was teaching me guitar when I was younger, he was telling me to listen out for different guitarists "sounds" as I got more of an ear for playing. There are so many phenomenal musicians out there that can play in such a direct style that you recognize them by what they play, it's crazy.
@@JaySay it's the same for jazz musicians too. When you're immersed you can identify various artists by the way they play their instrument.
Brandon is such an amazing poet, but what I love about him is how he uses his voice rhythmically and harmonically like he's one of the instruments in the band!!! 😁🤘❤️🎼
Everything on "A crow left of the murder..." SUCH an underrated album!
My Incubus favorite album!!!
Sick Sad Little World!
Woot! Incubus!!!! One of my all-time faves! For a weird trippy ride give the live version of Aquaeous Transmission. A thing of beauty.
Man I was having a hard time during a trip and this song came on totally mellowed me out😂
"Wish you were here" is my favorite song by them
Yes! Incubus! They have such a broad spectrum throughout their discography. More please.
Such a great band. Unique for their time. I'll never forget traveling up the Pacific coast highway after a golf trip in Rosarito with my boys, sipping tequila and listening to songs like Mexico and Wish you were here. The whole vibe of that album is so amazing. More please 🙏
Dude! This would be epic desert road trip music! It never occurred to me before.
@@jessicashenefield1546 try it you'll love it 🤘
"i'm not throwing down the peoples elbow" LOL
This was the song my wife and I had as our first dance at our wedding. Amazing song. Love it.
These guys don’t get enough credit because so many people know only their pop hits like Drive. (Not that their pop hits aren’t amazing in their own right.) They are a crazy eclectic band though. They touch on prog rock, funk metal, nu metal, jazz, pop, electronic, R&B, and even Chinese traditional music on one account. They love changing their sound and pushing boundaries and are incredibly smart and well adjusted. Their guitarist, Mike Einziger, even went to Harvard! I can’t say enough good about them. I hope you’ll do some deeper cuts too - Crowded Elevator or Deep Inside would be cool. As far as relative hits, Sick Sad Little World has an epic guitar solo.
Great to see more Incubus on the channel. Would love to see you do Dig and/or The Warmth in the future.
Cheers man
As someone that doesnt listen to the lyrics, this song has a great message.
As a bass player for over 32 years I find it very important to point out and say
The Warmth and Under My Umbrella will always be my top 2 Incubus tracks.
The warmth is amazing
They have so many gems. Idiot Box with the killer bass lines (anything off the album Science has killer bass!) the Warmth, Just a phase (some orchestral instruments in there and it's just beautiful) Aqueous Transmission, and so many more. Truly beautiful music this band creates 🤘
You gotta watch the full concert they did at Red Rocks on RUclips, It was absolutely amazing and it took me back because I played a lot of their older stuff
Incubus S.C.I.E.N.C.E is a classic album....sooooo underrated
KINGS OF LEON!… they have a huge library and you’ll get tons of views….
One of the best live bands I have ever seen…
Very Good, seen them 3 times.
Same. Brandon’s vocals are insanely good and the band tight
One of my all time favourite bands!!!! They put on a great live show too.
You should have a listen to Sick Sad Little World, such a great tune!
This is the song that was playing when I proposed to my wife on a summer sunset yacht cruise. Didn't plan it but was a nice moment soundtracked to a cool song with nice lyrics. We both still liked it and so it was played as part of our wedding.
Aloha from South Australia
Love the bass line on this one
Saw them play this live in 2006, he broke the g string mid song and kept going like a true professional. First time seeing them live and I will never forget it.
This song just always makes me feel happier about life. It really has helped me out a lot when I've felt down. It's like a friend relating their experiences to you and encouraging you to keep marching on.
Possibly their most commercial track, but still a good one. For something more complex, try Nice To Know You.
One of my most, favorite songs. So glad to hear your reaction. 😎
Thanks for another great vid, since I started watching your channel I’ve been listening to all my favourite tracks in a new way.
That's his goal.
I haven't thought of this song in so ling! It used to be one of my favorites!
Incubus is my all time favorite band. So versatile and unique across the board. You could throw a dart at a board of their albums/tracks and prolly get a banger of a song. Keep up the good vibes Geebz 🤙
The DJ adds a lot to this track, but it's very subtle. He and the bass player combine to create a cloud of sound that sits in the background of the track, and allows the acoustic guitar to come to the fore. Hands down one of the best songs in their discography.
A note on patreon, I can't afford even one month after all the bills are paid off and we've got the shopping in, but I appreciate the hell out of all the free content we get on youtube. Some creators would slowly phase youtube out, but you've stuck with it and for that I can't thank you enough!
You should definitely do "Are You In?" from the same album. A nice laid back jam where all of the band members get to shine👍
Crazy how big Geebz has got in the last year. Its my guilty pleasure to listen to his/your reactions. Super proud of how far the channel has come
This is one of my all time favorite albums. Every track is a great song. And I absolutely love the way Brandon Boyd sings, how he attacks the note. Not as much in this song, though there is some. A great example of what I mean is the song Clean.
When this song came out my flatmates got me good. They learned it on guitar and presented it to me one day as a song they had written. Since I'd never heard it before I was absolutely blown away and told them they were on their way to stardom. Lol. Then they dropped the bomb.
Yes, Incubus have a DJ as a member, playing lots of background stuff and doing scratching.
I love this group bc of their mesh of genres…
Coheed just released a new song called “Shoulders” that would be great to react to. As for Incubus, there are so many great songs I could recommend. All the songs on Morning View and Make Yourself are perfection.
No way, that song is inferior to their older stuff. Definitely agree with a Morning View reaction though
I love that they chose to leave in the string squeaks
New skin and vitamin are good tracks to showcase the bass on incubus. Deep inside, as well but that's more lounge/funk where you can totally hear the faith no more influences.
Love the the harmonies in this song.
There's only one guitarist in Incubus (except Brandom playing rhythm occasionally, like in live performances of 'Here in My Room'), but yeah this song definitely uses overdubs. Mike Einziger is a hell of a guitarist, and I'll always give credit to Music is Win for making me realise it
Hey, do you have a link for that video? I enjoy the Music Is Win as well, I'd love to hear his take on In cubes.
@@derekfletcher8934 He's mentioned Einziger quite a few times but I think the one where he breaks down 'Sick Sad Little World' is 'Legendary Licks You Didn't Know Were Legendary'
@@iliketrains3495 thanks man! I look forward to checking it out.
It’s one singer, drummer, bassist, guitarist, and a dj
Such a beautiful song!! Thankyou so much for doing this Geebz❤️
Aqueous Transmission!
I love these vids!
Man... My buddy and me used to do an acoustic cover of this song. Him on guitar and myself on vocals. Like to think we did it half the justice it really deserves lol. thanks for the flashback Geebz and as always a great breakdown of a killer track.
Incubus "Dig" live! I would like to see you dissect that. Love your reaction!
Mike Einziger is the guitarist. He was the reason i picked up a guitar after listening to the SCIENCE album when i was 12. That arrangment you heard was actual strings but when they play it live DJ Kilmore has it as a sample on a vinyl to scratch and play with and then let play through when its time at the end. The bass players name is Dirk Lance. Look him up. When he left the band in 2002 a big part of Incubus died. The funk and soul part of the sound has been missing a lot since then. Not saying they haven't had good songs but his presence on the bass for them was otherworldly.
If we are diving into Incubus we have to listen to Aqueous Transmission.
Incubus was the soundtrack to my late high school years. You know who else was? COG - "The Spine". Awesome Australian prog band. Please Geebz, I beg of you. Awwwwrriiight!
BERRIED ALIVE - STRAWBERRY SERENITY
🤯🍓🤯🍓🤯🍓🤯🍓🤯🍓🤯🍓🤯🍓
This song and group are and will forever be EPIC!! 💜🔥💜🔥💜
My favourite incubus song is wish you were here
Incubus one of my favs from the early 2000s!! Great breakdown of this track! Would love to see 'Placed on Hold' by Mutemath on your channel.
This song is such a great vibe, such a laid back, chill song, and just reminds me of kicking back with friends and having a good time.
Sounds like a mandolin mixed in the outro too with the twangy sound, never noticed it til now.
Just to suggest another one to the mountainous list you have, if you love songs with space, especially acoustic, have a look at "The one you are looking for isn't here" by Katatonia, the Dethroned and Uncrowned version, it's simply magnificent how much room is made in that song to let the vocals breathe and really pull you in, as well as some simply beautiful harmonies.
Awwright!
3:20 - Dead on! When you mentioned the similarities in harmonies it clicked perfectly.
If you ever react to Morning View, see if you can make it a full album reaction. That is one album best heard as a whole. It would also make for a great video and a lot of us out here would really like it.
Thanks for the video! Loved learning more about the song! 🤙🏼 Aloha from Spain
Another great reaction. Here for it brother.
Your channel is so fun. I get so much joy from listening to your musical dissection of songs that I enjoyed for so long. Please please do Portugal. The man “sleep forever” you will not be disappointed! Thank you for the joy
I'm a big Incubus fan and I love all the tracks being recommended in the comments, but given how you react to so much metal and numetal, I feel you should really give a listen to their earlier, heavier work. "New Skin" was my introduction to them and it's still my favorite track by them.
Incubus did some acoustic versions. Pardon Me was remarkable
This is a THROWBACK!! I love this song ❤️ can’t wait to see your reaction and input
Incubus did a song for Halo 2 called 'Follow'. Very different vibe from most else from them but worth checking out.
Also, the song 'Outliers Retrospect' by the band AVIATIONS. 🤘
Tnank you for doing this one! Amazing track! One of their greatest, IMO.
My first concert was the Black Sabbath reunion tour, in 1999. Incubus opened for Pantera, who opened for Black Sabbath - It was epic.
There is a bass-led version they sometimes do live which sounds like it could be The Cure or Depeche Mode (apart from the vocals obviously).
Sick Sad Little World by Incubus is also a GREAT song to review.
Synchrony! For no reason yesterday I suddenly thought of Incubus again, hadn't listened to them in ages, and I spent all evening listening to them and remembering how good they are! This was the first song I chose last evening.
INCUBUS made a huge impression on me through their albums Morning View and A Crow Left Of The Murder. (Make Yourself was great too) Intelligent band and ditto tracks!
SUGGESTION: THE FIVE HUNDRED - Walls Of Jericho
Love Incubus, always an interesting sound and no other band sounds quite like them.
I'm sure I've requested it before, but I would love to hear your take on the Kaipa track 'In the Wake of Evolution'.
Thanks again for the good time, Geebz.
There is definitely an extra track in the background on the final do-do-do section after the last chorus. There's a cello introduced. I thought it was maybe a synth, but looking it up they brought someone in for it. Never noticed it before!
Gotta do "Sick Sad Little World" by Incubus, my guy.
You talking about the guitar is awesome. As a guitar player I can tell you that this song is incredible. It is "simple" just a few chords, but damn are they weird ones and changing between them is awkward as hell. it is an incredible song from a band with a seemingly endless supply of incredible songs.
Incubus is classic. Anything off of S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is a must listen, as well!
One composer I'd like to hear you dive into is Celldweller. The man is a machine with how intricate he layers everything. Check out "Down To Earth" or "Jericho". You'll love it!
Some songs off of S.C.I.E.N.C.E would be cool. Certain Shade of Green, Deep Inside, and Summer Romance are my top 3
You're right, there's one guitar and a Dj. Incubus is a great band, plese do more of them!
Mike Einziger is super creative. You should take a look at array of effects pedals he uses. Other really great and impactful songs from Incubus are Under My Umbrella, The Warmth and 11am.
Please do Incubus Aqueous Transmission! Me and my grandma loved this and would go on rides leading up to her passing, listening to it...enjoy
You should check out Devin Townsend - Genesis. If you like prog mixed with metal, funk, jazz, electronic and operatic vocals all in one song you will enjoy! The man is btrue musical genius, a real modern day Frank Zappa. In fact on his latest album be collaborated with some of Zappa's band
"Stand Tall" by The Dirty Heads keeps with the hang 10 vibe...
I been wanting to suggest two bands, Death and King Diamond. Symbolic from the former and let’s say Welcome Home from the latter.
Never got super into these guys. Warning is probably the track I like best from these guys
Radiohead's "Life in a Glasshouse" next. UPVOTE THIS!!!
