incubus Biography

The American rock band Incubus was formed in 1991 in Calabasas, California by Brandon Boyd (vocalist), Mike Einziger (lead guitarist) and Jose Pasillas (drummer) while they were still in high school. Later, the group included Gavin Koppell and Alex Katunich, who were replaced eventually by DJ Kilmore and Ben Kenney.

Incubus, throughout their career, has drawn on various musical styles and genres, including alternative rock, electro, heavy metal, funk metal, rap metal, funk, nu metal, hip hop, trip hop, jazz and techno. The band also used a wide array of instruments in their music, including bongos, didgeridoo, sitar, djembe and pipa.

Incubus has achieved both commercial success and critical acclaim. They have reached multi-platinum status with their sales and released several very successful singles. With the release of “Make Yourself” in 1999, the band started to earn mainstream recognition as they branched out creatively. After releasing their single “Drive” as well as their album “Morning View” in 2001, they achieved even greater success. In 2006, “Light Grenades,” their sixth studio album, debuted in the No. 1 spot and has been certified Gold in the U.S. “Monuments and Melodies,” a greatest hits album, was released in June 2009. To support the set they toured the U.S., Canada and Japan. Recently Incubus finished “If Not Now When?”, their seventh studio album. It is scheduled to be released in July 2011.
