Me and Mr Boyd, we got a thing going on. Yes, long before Jason Segal and Seth Rogen forced the word ‘bromance’ into the popular lexicon, I had a man-crush on Incubus singer Brandon Boyd – I fell for him hard. 1999’s Make Yourself and Morning View two years later were prescribed texts in my senior years, the former hinting at Incubus’s yearning to separate from the nu-metal pack with potent...

For a majority of listeners, the band had slipped into general unconsciousness, recalled only briefly in a nostalgic listen to Make Yourself. Coupled with Brandon Boyd’s forgettable solo release The Wild Trapeze, the casual listener’s expectations... Read More

I once read somewhere that drummers are the most physically fit members of a band - a statistic that makes sense if you consider the art of Japanese taiko.   He’s also bringing a pair of nicely sculpted biceps, not to mention a set of drums so large (one measuring in at a whopping 250kg ) they need their own transportation. And you thought your drum kit was a pain to get back into... Read More
