Incubus - Make Yourself (Distro Title)

"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." Make Yourself includes "Drive," "Pardon Me" and "Stellar," and is pressed on 2xLP 180g black vinyl, housed in a deluxe gatefold jacket. This is a Music on Vinyl (MOV) Pressing, so this is housed in a resealable bag, not shrink wrap.   Tracklist Side 1 Privilege Nowhere Fast Consequence Side 2 The Warmth When It Comes Stellar Side 3 Make Yourself Drive Clean Side 4 Battlestar Scralatchtica I Miss You Pardon Me Out from Under Please note: This is a distributed title (which means another label pressed this release), so we do not have any extra jackets for this release in case of minor damage by the USPS in transit. To clarify, It will come packaged in a full-color jacket (as pictured) sealed with plastic wrap UNLESS requested in the comment section of your order to "open the album & place outside of the jacket prior to shipping." This is a good way to prevent potential seam splits along the top of the jacket due to careless handling by the post office, and this service is free of charge. If you forget to write in the comments of your order about shipping outside of the jacket, PLEASE EMAIL US WITH YOUR ORDER NUMBER and ask us to update the notes on your order to ship outside of the jacket. Release days are hectic, especially the first few hours, so please give ample time for a response. We will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you!
