Which one do you think overall writes/has written better lyrics?

I'm going to give the slight edge to Stephan Jenkins. Even though he has less material on albums, I think a higher pecentage of his songs are quality lyrics. Brandon may have more songs with great lyrics, but he also has more songs with not so great lyrics, IMO.

I could go either way.

Incubus was a favorite growing up. 3EB wasn't far behind.

Lyrically different animals

great lyrics


Just no. Brandon Boyd writes shitty lyrics. Being a pretentious, pontificating douche doesn't make you a good lyricist.

Boyd tries way too hard and comes off as super cheesy. Jenkins wins this easily

When I was younger I would have said BB all day long. But looking back now, he comes across as a whiny douche. SCIENCE still kicks arse though

Oh man... Tough question. Love both these guys but I gotta give it to Stephan. Motorcycle drive-by and wounded alone are just works of art. Very similar styles of theatrical singing though. Great question.

Where does Adam Duritz fall (lyrically) in comparison? I've always loved CC's lyrics.
