thanks for the video! that made my day

 

[SiennaInLondon]

God he is a beauty. It made my day too. I love how he is this grungy 90s hip-hop.metal.funk rocker on stage and then he is like this quiet artist in life. It is an awesome dichotomy.

Found an interesting quote in some review of the new album online: "The truth is, these days they are little more than Red Hot Chili Peppers lite. It's sad to see the band in such a state. Back in the days when they had a funk bassist and a hip-hop deejay, Incubus' sound was truly engaging and compelling. Now, they are little more than a stagnating alternative rock band, even if one of those high-school fans would have you believe otherwise."

I have to say there is an element of truth in that. I find I listen to Fungus Amongus and S.C.I.E.N.C.E way more than some of the other stuff though Crow is good also.

I mean I haven't got the latest album but the paragraph dicussing the lyrics puts me right off:
"Even worse than the music are Boyd's lyrics. Traditionally, the Incubus frontman has written interesting insights on cultural homogenization, political apathy and troubled relationships. On Light Grenades, however, his words fall flat. For example, the chorus to "Love Hurts" (an inane song title in and of itself) reads, "Love hurts / but sometimes it's a good hurt / and it makes me feel alive." For further evidence, check out the bridge for "Dig," which reads, "We all have something that digs at us / at least we dig each other." And even worse, these are the album's singles, not throwaways. To his credit, Boyd's singing on the record is excellent, but his writing leaves much to be desired."
