Free Music Notes for Make Yourself
Free Music Review: Pretty good, but not their best.
Hit: 4 Stars
This is the album with "Drive" and "Stellar," the two songs that sky-rocketed Incubus to stardom. If you're new to Incubus or played Guitar Hero 1, I guess this is a decent place to start.
Some fans say that this is where the band "sold out," even if that's not the case at all. Incubus has become more "radio-friendly" from this record on, but the quality of their music hasn't diminished one bit. With "Make Yourself," the band further refined its sound and put out their most consistent record yet.
Every track is catchy and well-written, with awesome choruses, memorable verses and all sorts of great music behind Brandon's ever-evolving vocals. I think they've done better, but there's no question that "Make Yourself" is a pivotal album in the Incubus discography.
Make Yourself Poster
Young, aggro, and from Los Angeles--it's tempting to put Incubus in the already crowded category populated by Korn, System of a Down, and their other loud and heavy brethren. But that would sell Incubus short, because Make Yourself, the quintet's sophomore album, is a strong progression beyond their 1997 debut, S.C.I.E.N.C.E.. More like Faith No More than Limp Bizkit, Incubus still have that teen-mosh appeal, though the songwriting and instrumentation on Make Yourself is diverse and thoughtful, both lyrically and musically. "Drive" is an easygoing, slightly trippy acoustic-based outing, while oddball scratching (courtesy of DJ Chris Kilmore) and trip-hop funkiness make "Battlestar Scralatchtica" aptly titled. "Nowhere Fast" is vaguely 311-ish with a reggae tinge and lovely melodic interludes, in contrast to the furious intensity of "Out from Under," which gives Make Yourself a surprisingly cohesive diversity that's hard to categorize. Ultimately, singer Brandon Boyd is not a vocal genius, but lyrically and in performance, he's sensitive, charismatic, and unique. Ditto for the 13 cuts that make up Make Yourself. --Katherine TurmanAlternative Rock Music CDs
