I'm always happy to hear new music from Incubus.  They are one my favorite bands and I think they're always doing really cool and innovative stuff with their sound and videos.  Their latest video for their single, "Adolescents" off of the forthcoming album If Not Now, When?, coming in July is no different.  In a behind-the-scenes video it was talked about how the video would be "simplistic, and play with shadow usage" which it did. But I feel like is ended up being SO much more than that/  The slow motions shots are super awesome as well.  I really like how the band always keeps it simple yet maintains to still blow you away.  No theatrics, just the music.  Also, check out some pics of the band in the studio after the jump!

From the set of their video for 'Adolescents'

“By about three songs into the writing process, I think we began to understand that we were unearthing something new, If Not Now, When? is our unabashed, romantic, lush, sonic love letter to the world. It’s darker, slower, more rich, more refined, and more involved than anything Incubus has birthed to date.”

And from the first single, "Adolescents" I would definitely have to agree with this statement. What do you guys think of the new single??

This week's Throwback Video of the Week is from one of my all time FAVORITE bands Incubus!  Their single "Wish You Were Here" was the first single released back 2001 off of the album Morning View which is responsible for my eternal love for these guys.  My love of for Incubus started as most of bands' that I'm a fan of, I had crush on the lead singer! duh! However, my love of Brandon Boyd front man for the rock group began to play in the background to the bands' music ( which is how it should be).  I have been following the band ever since.  Through a change is member which had the band embody a new sound after switching from bassist Dirk Lance for Ben Kenney who played on the Roots album Phrenology gave the and a funkier sound on their last few albums.  I have been lucky enough to see these guys on three different tours Morning View Sessions, A Crow Left to Murder, and Light Grenades and they are just as amazing live as they are on their albums!  I really like how both the song and video capture having that perfect moment and wishing someone special was there to experience it as well. Enjoy!
