Duality is that you actually managed to squeeze a little riff off of 'Echo' (from Morning View) into this cover. Echo is one of their most chill, wholesome songs Incubus has, and to fit it into a Slipknot cover not only is insane but genius. I'm never get tired of listening to your Incubus versions. You could make an entire album and I'd listen to it all day.

If you like this sound, "Make Yourself" is the album that this song pulled the most influences from, with a little "Morning View" and "Crow Left of The Murder." "Make yourself" is probably their best album overall, in my opinion. If you haven't heard the "Make Yourself" --> "Crow Left of the Murder" Incubus period youre missing out. "Light Grenades" marked a transition to a much cleaner, lighter and "happier pitched" sound they currently have. Also -- a caution about going further back than "Make Yourself." Incubus was a completely different band, clearly on completely different drugs at the time of making "S.C.I.E.N.C.E" and "Fungus Amongus." Its like listening to Sublime Ska Caveman Punk Rock all at the same time -- was kind of a mess early on with no real focus on locking down a sound. There are a few gems, though, with "Vitamin" on "S.C.I.E.N.C.E" being one of my particular favorites. But even though Incubus is probably my favorite band of all time; there is some godawful crap on the first two albums that make them almost not even worth listening to because there was just no musical direction whatsoever. "Make Yourself" is when they really locked it in and got their crap together.
