Here's my another favorite Alternative Band "Incubus". "Drive" was my all time favorite song from them, but before their songs let's start first with the band's biography.
Band Members
Lead Vocalist : Brandon Boyd

In year 1991-1997 vocalist Boyd, drummer Pasillas, and guitarist Einziger began playing together when they were in tenth grade; they were regularly playing all-ages concerts around southern California by the time they graduated from high school. In 1995, Gavin Koppell (known by stage name DJ Lyfe) joined them to record Fungus Amongus; the band's first major-label release was the six-track EP Enjoy Incubus in 1997

It was later re-released under Epic/Immortal on November 7, 2000 after popular demand. Many of the names given under 'Personnel' are actually pseudonyms for the Incubus members. 'Fabio' is guitarist Mike Einziger. 'Dirk Lan ce' is bassist Alex Katunich, who later adopted 'Dirk Lance' as his stage name. 'Brandy Flower' is an actual Sony employee, and 'Happy Knappy' is vocalist Brandon Boyd. 'Brett' and 'Brett Spivery' refer to Brett Spivey, long time friend of the band, who went on to make their first two DVDs, and the videos for "I Miss You" and "Summer Romance (Anti-Gravity Love Song)". The album cover image is of an amanita muscaria mushroom, also known as a fly agaric mushroom.

S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is an Enhanced CD album by the rock band Incubus, released on September 9, 1997. It includes an official video. The album has sold 740,000 copies in the US to date.
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. was titled as such because the band felt like they were working on a science project whilst creating the album, as such the acronym has no real meaning. Instead the band has chosen to let people interpret the title as they see fit. The acronym S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is as enigmatic as the moustachioed man on the cover. The band has given several contradictory meanings for both th e album title and the face of "Chuck", whose image also appears on the cover of the Enjoy Incubus EP, and inside the jacket of Make Yourself. It is also speculated that the face on the cover is their 8th grade middle school science teacher who inspired them.

It featured three charting singles, "Pardon Me", "Stellar", and "Drive", all of which reached the top three of the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart.
To many fans, Make Yourself represents a significant shift in the band's sound, with higher quality production sounds, a more mellow, experimental tone to it than its precursor, S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and more complex, sophisticated lyrics.
There was also a tour edition released, with a second CD containing three acoustic tracks and one live track. This is the first Incubus album to be recorded with new turntablist Chris Kilmore, who replaced DJ Lyfe.
The album is featured in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.

Morning View is the fourth studio album by alternative rock band Incubus, released October 23, 2001. This is the band's last album to feature bassist Alex Katunich.
The album has a sound that is overall softer than previous albums, especially apparent on songs such as "Echo" and "Are You In?", however, Incubus's heavier side is still evident on tracks like "Have You Ever" and "Under My Umbrella". Songs such as "Just a Phase" display more original song structures. Regarding the album's sound, guitarist Mike Einziger notes that it:
"would've been really easy for us to try to replicate certain songs that did well on our last record, which we didn't do. We didn' t do anything even remotely close to that. We put pressure on ourselves to make a good record because if none of us were happy with it, we'll all be miserable for the next two years while we're on tour."A Crow Left of the Murder... - 2003

Light Grenades debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200, selling 165,000 copies in the U.S. in its first week; it is the band's first number one album. However, Light Grenades also holds the dubious record of the biggest drop from #1 in chart history, falling from #1 to #37 in its second week on the Billboard 200 Albums chart and breaking the record set by Marilyn Manson's The Golden Age of Grotesque, which fell from #1 to #21 in 2003. The album has since gone gold in the US. As of July 11, 2007, it has sold 845,000 copies in the US.Hiatus, Greatest Hits and future (2008–present)
In December 2008, an Incubus newsletter said that the band plans to release a Greatest Hits album sometime in the Spring of 2009. It was suggested that the album would also have a few new tracks on it.
