Reviews for this Album

every song on this album is amazing, crazy and different. Brandons lyrics make you confused and make you think about stuff you would probably never think about. New Skin, glass, anti-gravity are only a few that are out of this world. Idiot Box might be my favorite but I can never decide!!! Everyone should listen to this album. EVERYONE!!

I meet Incubus with this album

But before I listened "new skin" in the album "family values"... i said what t f? incubus? and play it many times...
Then i bougth S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and "vitamin" made me exploit.... and well i am a incubus-holic

This was the first incubus album i got, and i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thursday we smoked indica and azwethinkweizm was born

In my opinion, the best album of the lot. I just love every track. Have loved this album for years and years. Was introduced to incubus via "new skin" which is the title song in motocross madness 2, a game that one of my friends used to love, heard the song and just loved it instantly. Got the album, took a while to appreciate it, but once I did there was no going back!.

Although the entire album rocks, my favourites are probably new skin, glass, favourite things and nebula. The secret track segue 1 (a.k.a. jose loves kate moss) is also awesome, gotta love the randomness off it, also that it shares parts with "show me your tits" by hoobustank.

This album is the album I go to whenever I want to feel happier, I love singing along to it and listening to it from start to finish.

Hate to admit that I've only just started listening to S.C.I.E.N.C.E. but I fkn LOVE it!!!! Dunno why it took me song long to get it!!! Idiot box, Redefine and Glass are wicked!! LOVE your work guys.....Oh and COME BACK TO NEW ZEALAND PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE (",)

I love this CD! Every song is sooo different. It is most definalty one of the best ablums Incubus has done. My favorite song is deep inside. I just love everything about it... the lyrics are amazing. calgone and nebula are so fun. summer romance is great to drive around listening to and singing at the top of your lungs. I love it! I love it! I love it!!!!!!!! All the songs are different and unique in there own way. AMAZING!!!!! Please come to PITTSBURGH, PA!!!

That's perfection! Wish they'd play this old stuff more often!

the best.

This album proves how superior music is to language, because I cannot think of the words to describe how awesome this album is. I know as a band you like to think your next album is better than your last, well this is the exception because you can't beat perfection (unintentional rhyme).

There really is no way to describe this album; it is easily one of the best albums I have ever heard! It'll always be my all-time fav!

Nebula......enough said......

great amount of great songs.
this was a kick ass phase of incubus, and some of these songs still sound really fresh to me Laughing out loud

First time I listened to this album, I was a little intimidated. Some of the tracks were a tad out there, but upon listening a second, third, billionth time, i love them all so much. Great album once again

a picture says with sight what we can't say with words

Being that this was not the first album I heard from them, I have to say the other Incubus (from Make Yourself on up) albums spoiled my view. I don't particularly like this album but it shows potential. If I had listened to them earlier, maybe I would probably have a different response. This album to me was like a time in their careers where they were full of raw talent, but they really didn't quite have a maturity about themselves. They weren't making mistakes or anything, but it just wasn't a...sober album if that makes sense. They were having fun and it showed. I loved the hidden track stuff on Calgone as well as the track.

For me, the 2nd best album... Im sure that by these cd the masterpiece Make Yourself was born.

Good sound, maybe a little aggresive for the lyrics but you all guys new how to make them go by the hand. A worthy piece of work.

Words cannot describe how amazing this CD is! it is by far the best CD that Incubus has released. The sound is just so original I love the funk/jazz/rock that are all collaborated together to form just one phenomenal melody. Brandon defiantly wrote a masterpiece when it comes to the lyrics but dirk, mike, jose, and DJ Lyfe rocked the rest of the album. its AMAZING!!

It´s the first incubus record that I heard in my life, and i think that it's the best, it's perfect, it has all the power to be a good record. I miss the kind of music that incubus played in those years.

please come back to Mexico City and play It.

I feel in love with incubus the first time i heard Here in my room, then i started buying all the cds, and when i got to science i realize that there is no one song that doesn´t make me feel like flying

It's just great!
I can't get enough of it!
A Certain Shade Of Green, New Skin and Summer Romance are my favourite songs of this album and also in general some of my favourite songs!
I just fell in love with S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and especially Incubus!!!
Great band, great album, great songs, great sound, that's all I can say!

"...Im Counting UFO´s..."

WHEN I FIRST SAW THE VIDEO OF DRIVE, I FELL IN LOVE WITH BRANDON, SO I BOUGHT THE CD.

WHEN I LISTENED TO SCIENCE, I'VE FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT GORGEOUS BRANDON AND FELL IN LOVE WITH THEIR MUSIC.

THIS CD IS GREAT!!!!

alive since march 9 2008! =)

HI,i'm a big greek fan of you guys!!by the way,this album rocks..redefine the best!
please come to greece,come to greece,come to greece,
COME TO GREECE!!!!

i fell in love with them more when my boyfriend gave me this album. big thanks to him for introducing me to incubus' earlier work.
i wish i started listening to this band much earlier though, i was only a kid when this album was released, and being a girl with mostly female friends then, no one really introduced me to their music until highschool. i can only imagine how different i would've been as a kid if i knew them back then. i've missed out on a lot.

i was ecstatic when they played vitamin live!!! thank you guys for still playing tracks from S.C.I.E.N.C.E. this album gets me through a lot of boring days, you guys are awesome. and yeah, hope you guys come out with more kick-ass tracks like the ones in this album.
wish you guys would come back to manila please please...

i have this album for like 8 years now, from casette tape to audio cd... and i must admit that this is THE BEST INCUBUS ALBUM EVER CREATED!

experience antigravity with this one! woah...

i first heard INCUBUS on this album way back in 1997 in highschool..."Redefine" way played first in NU 107 Home of New Rock (Our Rock Radio Station here in the Philippines....I first bought a cassette of SCIENCE album...then ive found out that this album was excellent! this is the best INCUBUS album of all...(hope DIRK LANCE will come back...)

This is going to sound like every other review on here. But for a damn good reason. Cuz it kicks ass! Seriously, if Incubus could go back to making more s*** like this with their current mainstream power then they could take over music for a long god dam time. They would be the rock power house, even more than they are now.

If you don't own this album, go pick it up. If you're poor, download it. I don't care. The actual band will only see about 20 cents of it if you do buy it. So if you feel like supporting some suit's multi million dollar salary then please, go ahead and pay for it.

Anyways, back to the album. Get a sub. You need a sub to listen to this album in it's entirety. It's all about the bass. This is seriously the last great album i've heard where you can actually distinguish the bass guitar from the rest of the music. And it's damn good. If i ever get a million dollars, then i would give it all towards a concert in my backyard with this original incubus lineup. They meshed so well. It sounds fantastic.

Glass is a good track. In fact the first 5 tracks all played in a row is a guaranteed musical orgasm. God i love it. But ya wanna know where it's really at? DEEP INSIDE ! Honestly my favorite incubus song. It's got the funk, a tiny drop of jazz, some heavy layered guitars, and it's all about 'trippin' haha. Somehow the best combination in my short musical life.

Long story short, just go buy it. You won't be disappointed at all. Definately the takes the spot on the top of the CD rack. (Just like everyone else who reviewed this album)

Enjoy!

Exciting album with so many different sounds and beats! That's pure music! It's always fun again to listen to it and let every sound of each song and lyric take you away....

epic needs to lay off poor incubus and let them make another one like this one. the world needs more music like this. it has the power to change things.

what if the sky all of a sudden turned a purple hue? we would s*** a brick the size of all of it, what if????????

"S.C.I.E.N.C.E." is Incubus's work of art. This album kicks more ass than any other album I've ever heard--by ANYONE. It's heavy, it's of course funky, and it's real. My Incubus screen name is "Glass_maker" for a reason and that reason is "Glass" is the best song on the entire album. I mean, they all rule, but "Glass" is the ruler. This album compliments the talents of ALL members of the band: DJ Lyfe and his scratching skills, Brandon and his iNsAnE pipes, Jose and his off the wall drumming, Dirk and his funky bass lines, and Mike and his killer guitar rifs.
"A Certain Shade of Green" is the best way for the world to end, honestly. And what is the deal with "Calgone"? That song is so weird and sometimes creepy in only the BEST of ways. Everytime I hear this album, I get a slur of emotions: Happy, when I'm jammin' out to "Glass"; Crazy when I listen to "Vitamin"; and freaked out when I'm trying to comprehend "Calgone". Either way you swing it, this album absolutely rules all other albums.

I was only 6 years old when this album was released so I listened to it much later-
And I was so shocked at the sound, which I had never experienced, and I think it awoke me from something!
Vitamin, A certain shade of green,summer romance and Nebula are my favorite.
It's been over 10 ys since it was made but it's still fresh! Thank you very much guys for having introduced this great work to the world!

i absolutley love this album, i love how its a totally different side of incubus but is still f***ing amazing! i love rocking out to this album, luv it!<3 (brandon, i really miss the dreds!)

Such a cool work. Really a different side of Incubus. The kind that kicks your ass. The kind I like. "A Certain Shade of Green" is my favorite song off that album. I heard an acoustic version of it and was enamored. When I heard the real version in concert I was pleasantly pleased that it was so rockin!!
