EspañaA note from Brandon
12/23/08
Hello my fine, feathered friends. I trust the Holidays are treating you all well and that our recent bouts with good news in the world of Politics haven't stirred your cynicism too much but instead gotten you all in the hopeful spirit of giving and brotherly love! I am writing you today to bring word from that strange island in the sea called Incubus.
We are currently pooling our collective ideas, knocking the dust off of the gears, and reconvening in Los Angeles this month to create and compile what will be our newest offering into the world of illegal downloading! In short, we are releasing our first Greatest Hits album. Yes, we know that that officially means we are not a new band anymore, and that we are in fact getting old. If Incubus were a character in a famous Vladimir Nabokov novel, we would play the role of the creepy, aging Father figure: obsessed with our new wife's teenage daughter and hell bent on winning her over with trifles and sweet talk. Or, better yet, if Incubus were one of the Harry Potter novels, we'd be the one where Harry finally makes out with Cho Chang! A few significant novels into the unfolding plot, but leaving the reader with a sneaking suspicion that the best has yet to come. Scratch that Nabokov reference, it's borderline inappropriate. The Harry Potter one hit the nail on the head!
It looks as if the Greatest Hits will have a few new tracks on it and that it will be ready to steal around Spring of 2009! So in the interim, have a wonderful Holiday season! Remember that it's the thought that counts and not how much you spend. Hugs are better than drugs and they're cheaper! Making love is far healthier than waging war, and it's certainly more fun. Anyone who claims to have all the answers is most deserving of skeptical inquiry. Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, but teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Unless that fish is contaminated with Mercury. Then you just screwed that guy. Change your underwear at least twice a week, chew your food thoroughly, wipe front to back, measure twice and cut once, leaves of three, let 'em be! Leave of four... you get the idea. Lastly, a warm and sincere thank you to all of you who have been onboard with us for so long. Sharing our music with you has been a privileged occasion! And I thank all of you on behalf of this band. Here's to another year of art, music, travel and discovery. All our love. Take care of yourselves and each other out there.
Happy Holidays,
Brandon

I have a voice-wanna see me use it?
Dear Incubus, I have been newly indoctrinated onto this site-like the migrating fish Ihave found my place to spawn a growing and unhealthy infatuation that will hopefully produce a slow and satisfactory death at the end of this page. I wonder if you will come upon this-avert your eyes if you know what is good for you!-Iknew you didn't-read on. Like many others I stumbled upon you and was unwittingly trapped. you became my high-needing more with every hit but never fully satisfied -my heart latched on.Something about your lyrics was raw- a pencil to page interaction that let the heart speek freely with no censor. I had envied this as the dark closed in and cinched around my vessels, forbidding me to speak. You became my voice. you seduced me so easily as you whisked me away with each journey you took with your music-then bam!YOU KICKED ME IN THE ARSE with doses of lethal reality I was so adept at avoiding-you bastards!You are the naysayers of our generation, forcing us to take your "red pill" and like it. I love how you have taken the reigns in terms of your sound and not conformed to the world, but let it be shaped by your experiences and whatever else oozes from your inner core. I am not ashamed to dabble in world music because of you.I apologize for any underestimation or overgrandiation I have alotted to you, for I know I have only dipped my toe into the depths of what you can offer- I promise to swallow all of it with no-or little regurgitation. I do not know you no matter how much I will read in your bio- of how tired you are, what you are missing right now, how "normal" you are under your deified physiques- but do you care if I tag along to whatever your thinking of becoming next?Not as a follower but as a great admirer of your works? Do you care that you have rescued this dying fish and slipped it into the unpredictable sea where the monsters make her gills breathe with the threat of her own life taken into her own hands and put to the test in this very moment?Does that even make sense- oh well, it's your fault. Do I thank you ? Bottom line your a great band in a time where nonsense is held up on a pedistal and peddled as examples to live by. Can I be just another one to applaud you? After all, you are my voice. I hope to catch you in action soon. -CADENZ
Hello!
A long distance request...all the way from India..Would you guys consider adding India on to your touring list??
Thank you for the great music!!

Don't Forget About Us!
Please,please,please,please,please,please,please dont forget about your UK fans! If i could afford to fly around the world attending all Incubus concerts,then i most definatly would,but unless i win the lottery on a rollover i unfortunatly dont see it happening. Please tour the UK again,makeing sure to stop at the CIA in Cardiff City. The last time changed my life in a very possitive manor and set me on the track of Incubus descovery. Cant wait to see you again,now i actualy know all the words:] Until then i shall continue to swoon over my very precious cds,dvds books and posters collection. The new album is gona be epic!! With love,BreakingDawn. xXx
yea
I love you brandon!

i cherish any news that comes from the almighty brandon.
thank u and please keep updating, brandon
Thank You
I usually don't join these things or post to these places, but I felt that I needed to let you know what your music has meant to me...my life has not been easy and when things get difficult I use music to help me heal and deal...your music, especially drive, has helped me through a lot of hard times. Keep it up...you make a difference. Maybe someday when I get a life
I'll come see you perform live.

Dear Incubus
Thankyou so much for keeping your music unique and at the same time meeningful. I (like im special) have been a fan of you alls shenanagins since i was an awkward teen. and i want to say i will always accept everything you do with my undivided attention. You guys should know that your music inspired me to play music myself which has gone much further than i could have imagined when i started. so i guess what im trying to say is that i appreciate you as a band. thank you.

p.s i couldnt imagine what it feels like to have random people(me,fans) to kiss your ass all day. its either freakin sweet or freakin creepy. cheers
thanks
