Incubus, Rob Zombie, Shinedown headlining Rock On The Range festival

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

I think people tend to forget about the Rock On The Range festival. Even though it brings big acts to Columbus, OH on a yearly basis, it's not one of those festivals that sticks out in one's mind when you're planning what fests to head to in the summer. Regardless, ROTR is back this year with a pretty interesting line up.
Incubus, Rob Zombie, Shinedown and Marilyn Manson will be headlining the three-day festival which runs from May 18-20 at Crew Stadium.… Read More

Watch: Incubus – “Promises, Promises”

Thursday, June 23rd, 2011

Looks like Brandon Boyd wishes he lived on Fantasy Island with the outfit worn in this video. Fashion critiques aside, up top you can see Boyd in his Ricardo Montalban suit in the video for Incubus's new single, "Promises, Promises." The video features the band playing in front of a screen that projects images onto them. Boyd also places himself on the screen and interacts with the imagery around him. In other words, it's a pretty straight forward video. The single appears on the band's forthcoming album,If… Read More

Incubus announces North American tour dates

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

Oh you may not want to admit it but deep down you know you were waiting for this. Don't give me the "Oh, I'm too cool for Incubus. They were awesome back in the day" bullshit. They're still a damn good live band and North America gets the chance to see that on their upcoming tour of the U.S. and Canada.
August 17th is day 1 of the Incubus tour and it kicks off at the Red Rocks Amphitheater in Denver, CO. The final date of the tour is October 9th in San Francisco at the Shoreline… Read More

Watch: Incubus – “Adolescents”

Thursday, April 28th, 2011

Incubus are making their return not with a bang but with a well thought out whisper. Their album, If Not Now, When?, is in stores on July 12th and the album's first single, "Adolescents," is now up top for your viewing pleasure. It's a simple premise: it's a black and white performance video featuring the band playing the song amidst some lights in the background. Simple. Just how Incubus are trying to portray themselves with this new album. No heavy rock riffs, no distortion. Just different but simple.… Read More
