INCUBUS: Morning View

LP Record Fungus Amongus is the debut album from California's Incubus and (from the band's historical perspective) a rough, unpolished diamond that provokes and polarises with its aggressive sound. The wild mix of their second album, S.C.I.E.N.C.E., was crafted into an exciting melange under the studio guidance of producer Jim Wirt, presenting itself as "alternative" in the truest sense of the word. Incubus comes across as fresh and powerful – iron-hard riffs and venomous lyrics are their forte. Their third CD, Make Yourself (1999), sold over two million copies in the States, remained on the LP charts for a solid two years, and was certified double platinum – even though it never climbed higher than number 47 on the charts.
