you've single handedly made me an incubus fan without ever listening to a song from them. now science and morning view are heavily in rotation. along with all your work. you're so fuckin good dude
@@Gogeta70 i definitely recognized drive when i listened to it intentionally but I never put any thought into the song before that, didn’t know the name of the song or artist.
You've got to be the most skilled band "impressionist" ever. Your ability to capture styles is alarmingly good. By the way, the obnoxious record scratching had me laughing my ass off. Good on you, sir!
Man... I mean this 100 Percent: This video rekindled my love of Incubus. I was a super fan in my teens. Then Light Grenades happened and I moved on (If that's when you got into Incubus: Great for you! Wasn't for me). This song fills a hole I didn't know was there. Thank you for it!
You hit the nail on the head. I became an Incubus fan when they were touring behind the S.C.I.E.N.C.E. album. Loved them through A Crow Left Of The Murder, but then Light Grenades was released, and that's when I realized Incubus was dead.
Oah, I get that the old school fands despise Love Hurts and Dig, but Light Grenades had some very great tracks. Give Anna Molly, Earth To Bella (Part 1 +2), Rogues, A Kiss To Send Us Off another chance ;)
Great work! You got that Incubus "swing". It's hilarious because Brandon Boyd is annoyingly optimistic. I love it! I caught the voicings. Nice nod to stellar and others!
Was thinking that same thing. I also hear a little bit of Morning View in there both on his clean guitar tone and the more relaxed vocals. Superb job Mac!
since i've only listened to science and morning view so far, this is my only reference point.(i slept on incubus for decades despite having new skin on my playlist since like 2001)
Thank you thank you thank you, for cutting the religious slur. We love this page, and even though its not always clean, those are the one type we cant listen to :) Kudos.
The amount of talent you have to pull all these songs off and perfectly match another bands style and sound is insane to me. I’m currently going through all your videos showing my girlfriend trying to explain to her the skills needed to pull this off. Keep em coming man, just recently discovered you but you have a fan here!
Excuse me.... how did you make this song... a that a lot of us hold dear.... better. I was so so convinced that I was listening to a Incubus song. You went too hard, I love this... so so so much! Please put this on Spotify, I must listen more 💜
Mac just gets it, I could spend hours typing about how he hits all the little nuances of any band/song he covers but most everyone here already knows that, and that's why we appreciate him so much. Keep doing what you do best glocky.
I love when you do Incubus stuff. I used to listen to them in high school 20 years ago, the girl I had a crush on also digged them. She would get a huge kick out of this, it brings up nice memories!
If you like this sound, "Make Yourself" is the album that this song pulled the most influences from, with a little "Morning View" and "Crow Left of The Murder." "Make yourself" is probably their best album overall, in my opinion. If you haven't heard the "Make Yourself" --> "Crow Left of the Murder" Incubus period youre missing out. "Light Grenades" marked a transition to a much cleaner, lighter and "happier pitched" sound they currently have. Also -- a caution about going further back than "Make Yourself." Incubus was a completely different band, clearly on completely different drugs at the time of making "S.C.I.E.N.C.E" and "Fungus Amongus." Its like listening to Sublime Ska Caveman Punk Rock all at the same time -- was kind of a mess early on with no real focus on locking down a sound. There are a few gems, though, with "Vitamin" on "S.C.I.E.N.C.E" being one of my particular favorites. But even though Incubus is probably my favorite band of all time; there is some godawful crap on the first two albums that make them almost not even worth listening to because there was just no musical direction whatsoever. "Make Yourself" is when they really locked it in and got their crap together.
@@jaycue7641 I definitely consider it one of the best single albums ever made -- back in the days when when CD space in your vehicle was at a premium and so it was important to have a disc you could just put in the player or the deck and leave.
@@formdoggie5 Make Yourself + Morning View are their best records. You Can listen to them back to back. Up to this day "pardon me" is such an original and creative song. I can't even wrap my head around it.
As always - well done!!!! At some point I am confident you will get a colab with at least some of the musicians you impeccably emulate! Just throwing this out there - "Pure Imagination" in 10 different styles.
I love the "Echoes" throwback riff, and even more impressive is how spot on your mixing/ and writing, (not to mention the INSANE vocal range/ techniques). Mad respect and admiration all around, this is the level of talent I aspire to possess. thanks for being sick af!!
This dude legit blows me away everytime with how well he absolutely fucking nails the bands sounds !! Iv been listening to a lot of these bands for 25+ years since I was a literal child and he fucking captures their whole sound just in a bottle like it’s easy !!
This is sending chills down my arms and back. This is so... man, you nail a very specific era of any given band so perfectly, and it's so damn impressive.
As a massive Incubus and Slipknot fan this was amazing from the vocals kicking in to the first chord bend. Expertly done on all aspects. But now I thing we need to hear If Slipknot wrote A Certain Shade Of Green
Heck. I get an awesome new incubus song, and it's one of my already favorite songs. I love your videos, they're doubly rewarding. I'm waiting for more of your own songs too. They go straight into my favourites playlist.
![Lethal Company Music Video 🎵 "Follow The Orders" [VERSION A]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/QeooZB4Z7RA/mqdefault.jpg)
The “hey” made it authentic right away.
cant forget those record scratches too lmaooo
Literally.
Came to say this. It was said. Hahaha
Absolutely
found this comment right after hearing it and thinking the same thing :D
I’m now convinced Slipknot inadvertently wrote an Incubus single.
Lol same
It does honestly work better as an Incubus song than a Slipknot song. As a Slipknot fan, it always felt a bit... off. This is how it SHOULD be.
This gives me nostalgia for times that never happened
No BS, the chorus is smoking and the bridge is exactly what I'd think of as Incubus.
Feels like I’m back at 99 listening to make yourself
Facts
All the little "yeeeaheeaahh"s and record scratches make this. Proper Make Yourself era.
The vocals on this are a level above your regular performance
You should really do an entire album as IncYOUbus
IncYOUbus is awesome 😂 he should even name the album like this
Agreed. The Incubus tracks are astonishingly fantastic
His Incubus is the most uncanny for me, I'd love that.
Heart Shaped Box by Incubus was single-worthy!
Agreed. I feel like he really was digging this one and put more than usual into it, which is even better
you've single handedly made me an incubus fan without ever listening to a song from them. now science and morning view are heavily in rotation. along with all your work. you're so fuckin good dude
You've probably heard "Drive" by Incubus. It was played on the radio all the time 20 or so years ago.
@@Gogeta70 i definitely recognized drive when i listened to it intentionally but I never put any thought into the song before that, didn’t know the name of the song or artist.
@@Gogeta70was 4 years old 20 years ago😂 so probably not
Never mind I do know that song
Absolutely underrated check out the first EP You will be a hot dancer is class EP is called enjoy incubus
Anna Molly or under my umbrella for me
@@ferggraham9849 Anna Molly indeed
If slipknot wrote kryptonite
holy crap do I want this!
Yes!!
Sliptonite.
More upvotes :D
Yes.

This was just an Incubus song front to back. You can't convince me this isn't how the song was supposed to be performed! Insane talent.
i, too, now think of this as one of Slipknot's greatest COVERS...
This is spot on, especially with those bended chords. I laughed when I heard the little turn table sample, it's SO Incubus.
The guitar [quick] pitch bend and record scratch you played over it was the most Incubus sounding thing ever...
That was comedy lol
This is like being in another dimension dude, I can’t unhear incubus doing this jam now and it’s incredible
This is just so wildly accurate. If I heard this in the radio I would not question that it was Incubus. Very, very good.
This is way better than slipknot honestly
Imagine this at the end of Make Yourself instead of Out From Under, it makes too much sense.
Man... I mean this 100 Percent:
This video rekindled my love of Incubus.
I was a super fan in my teens.
Then Light Grenades happened and I moved on (If that's when you got into Incubus: Great for you! Wasn't for me).
This song fills a hole I didn't know was there.
Thank you for it!
Same here.

Oah, I get that the old school fands despise Love Hurts and Dig, but Light Grenades had some very great tracks.
Give Anna Molly, Earth To Bella (Part 1 +2), Rogues, A Kiss To Send Us Off another chance ;)
Light Grenades had a few good ones, but I also really enjoyed the albums before that as a kid.
YES
10x better than it should have been....
Put it on Spotify!!
Great work! You got that Incubus "swing". It's hilarious because Brandon Boyd is annoyingly optimistic. I love it! I caught the voicings. Nice nod to stellar and others!
Yeah definitely also hearing some Echoes in thete!
I love how every time you make an Incubus track, it sounds like a cool mix of the Science/Make Yourself era... thank you for this banger!
Given that Mac is always going for a nu metal sound, that's not surprising.
SCIENCE/Make Yourself era is the quintessential Incubus era.
Was thinking that same thing. I also hear a little bit of Morning View in there both on his clean guitar tone and the more relaxed vocals.
Superb job Mac!
since i've only listened to science and morning view so far, this is my only reference point.(i slept on incubus for decades despite having new skin on my playlist since like 2001)
The best era
incubus "Nice to know you" vibes 🤘🤘🔥🔥 .. awesome!!! 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘
I had Make Yourself, but damn I hear that too.
Damn, you really nailed those Brandon Boyd vocal runs and harmonies. And that guitar riff sounding like Rogues was a nice touch.
Thank you thank you thank you, for cutting the religious slur. We love this page, and even though its not always clean, those are the one type we cant listen to :) Kudos.
You always match the incubus guitar sound perfectly (Mike Einziger)
This song sounds a lot like Echo and some of the other Morning View songs mashed together
Crazy how he captures that
Sounds so Stellar.
Mike E's style is so impeccable
It's that slight string bend on the guitar, perfectly captures the incubus sound ha ha .
Man you should do “If Deftones wrote Drive by Incubus” and a “If Incubus wrote Bored by Deftones” that would be sick man
Or if Incubus wrote Be Queit and Drive
@@chrysgalarza190"Be Quiet and Scratch”
@@chrysgalarza190feat adam sandler.
Too similar
If Incubus wrote Hole in the Earth
The best thing about your covers is that they always turn out unironically good, absolutely great infact,
every one of them goes into my rock playlist
If Linkin Park wrote Welcome To The Black Parade.
I genuinely cannot even imagine what this would sound like, and now I need it.

I stumbled upon your Korn, mmmbop video this morning. I have spent most of my day watching all of your videos. Amazing work. Keep it up my man!!
Thank you 🙏
The string bends are totally on point!
So many incubus-isms, you nailed their style so well
I forgot this was a cover halfway through and was just jamming. Amazing
at first I was sceptical, but when the guitar kicked in.... just awesome
😂 then the "hey" just sold it for you huh? 😂
If Sleep Token wrote "Oceans" by Hillsong
Oh my gosh! That would be incredible! If the song was arranged blending "The Love You Want" and "High Water"!
The "hey" was perfect!
This is fantastic......the "make yourself" era of Incubus.....
If System of a Down wrote Santeria
Both wtf and please
I love how Mac takes inspiration on Morning View to make the Incubus impressions

I keep coming back to listen to this because I’m sooo amazed by your talent and I LOVE INCUBUS !!!
If Deftones made (I Just) Died In Your Arms by Cutting Crew. Please! I love your vids they always sound awesome!
This would be a good one!
i can hear it already
Great Idea
Fkn chills through the whole thing. 🩶
even nailed the difference in Chris Kilmore and Sid Wilson vibes/styles. damn. Nice job man.
Incubus should defifuckinitely cover this awesome take.
If Nirvana wrote Boulevard of Broken Dreams
I second that 🙋🏻♀️
Oh shit! That's a great one!
If Green Day wrote Francis Farmer
That would be great!
Yep this one please!!!
Your ability to extract the essence of each band and twist it into something new is so admirable, I love these videos!
Pleeeease give us an incubus album! And I love that the scratches are getting better!
Yes, full Incubus album please.
Man! Fantastic work!
If Korn wrote Zombie by The Cranberries
This has to be it.
The harmony on the chorus was so Incubus-y! The entire song sounds like something right off of Science and I love it.
What an excellent chorus execution
This is actually excellent and sounds like it could be a B side from A Crow Left of the Murder. Well done Mac!
Damn dude, I was reading reddit while listening to this, and NGL, this is *indistinguishable* from Incubus.
Well done, bru.
My neighbors hate me now.😏
Superb Work again, the incububs vocal are insane, you really outdid yourself this time.
Dude. This was so fucking spot on
Excuse me.... how did you make this song... a that a lot of us hold dear.... better. I was so so convinced that I was listening to a Incubus song. You went too hard, I love this... so so so much! Please put this on Spotify, I must listen more 💜
It's already on spotify
Nailed it! So dope
I'm a simple man :
I see "If Incubus wrote". I click!
Same!
What if Incubis performed "Simple Man"?
Holy crap that would be cool!!!
idk how you nail their "sound" so well on so many different artists. Their style, cadence, inflections, etc. sooo good.
this is one of the stand-outs in your oeuvre, thank you for bringing it into the world

You are incredible, the hard work you put into these is evident.
What if Queen sang Slipknot: All Out Life
If Deftones wrote Toxic by Britney Spears. 💘
You absolutely nailed this!
I love when you do Incubus stuff. I used to listen to them in high school 20 years ago, the girl I had a crush on also digged them. She would get a huge kick out of this, it brings up nice memories!
I think I like this more than most actual Incubus songs. That's not intended as a slight against them; this just kicks ass
Thing is they used to have kick ass songs like that back in the day 😢
