'' is the fourth
Album by
Alternative Rock band,
Incubus . It was recorded in
Malibu, California and released on
October 23 ,
2001 by
Incubus . "Morning View Drive" is the name of a street in Malibu where the band lived temporarily and recorded the album. The single was also featured on the
Bravo television real-estate show
Million Dollar Listing .
It has a sound that is overall softer than previous albums by the band, especially apparent on songs such as "Echo" and "Are You In?", although due to Incubus' varied influences, there had been examples of softer songs on previous albums, such as "Summer Romance (Anti-Gravity Love Song)" from ''
S.C.I.E.N.C.E. ''. Songs such as "Just A Phase" display more original song structures.
The final song, "
Aqueous Transmission ", is unlike anything else the band had attempted, employing the use of Japanese instruments such as the
Pipa . The song is 7 minutes and 46 seconds long, with the last minute consisting of frogs croaking outside the studio in Malibu. Lead vocalist
Brandon Boyd says that the purpose of the song was to make "the listener pee in his/her pants" from the relaxation.
An official video for the song "Circles" was released on December 3, 2006 on Sony BMG Musicbox.
