My favorite band growing up... their last two albums had maybe two really good songs and the rest I thought was meh. I agree with most of yours take on Fungus and SCIENCE but their is no way that those are their best. Are they raw and inovative...? Sure, but Morning View is a great album front to back. SCIENCE comes in a close second. At least for me.
ACLOTM was when the downfall was noticeable but I blame all this on Dirk Lance leaving the band. Jose Padillas(sp) is an above average drummer and the band as a whole is better than most of the crap that comes out now still. Past their prime, but at least they dont suck as much as 311 does now.

Agree with OP Swoopin! I loved me some Incubus back in the day. Listened to all the albums, had the DVD concerts, saw them live several times, etc......

SCIENCE, Make Yourself, & Morning View are my favorites. Each album has gone down hill after. Their current stuff is

Look I get it, bands evolve and usually mellow over time, but I haven't I still like my rocking Incubus, not the soft gay crap.

Morning View is decent, but after that album the shows became a bunch of screaming teen girls. meh

I liked "Light Grenades"

Their following albums were crap, imo
