Incubus is a five-man alternative rock band formed in 1991, based in Calabasas, California. Members include Brandon Boyd (vocals and percussion), Mike Einziger (guitar), Ben Kenney (bass), Jose Pasillas II (drums) and DJ Chris Kilmore (turntables). Former members of the band include Gavin Koppel (a.k.a. DJ Lyfe) (turntables) and Alex Katunich (a.k.a. Dirk Lance) (bass). The band's name may seem a peculiar choice to fans, as an incubus is a type of demon that, in mythological lore, comes in the night and has sex with women while they are sleeping; it seduces them in their dreams The story behind the name is that the band needed to think of a name hours before their first show and, after a few failed choices, Mike looked in a dictionary and chose "Incubus" almost at random. Mike says that the name was chosen because it sounded silly; Brandon holds that it was chosen because they were teenagers and the definition had the word "sex" in it. "We really didn't want to rape women in their sleep. But, we were fifteen and it seemed harmless to us then, and we never changed it," says the band.
Incubus has received both critical acclaim and commercial success, reaching multi-platinum sales, as well as releasing several successful singles. The band earned mainstream recognition with the release of their 1999 album Make Yourself. In 2001, Incubus became even more successful with the single "Drive" and their follow-up album Morning View. Their sixth studio album, Light Grenades, debuted at No. 1 in 2006 and has received Gold certification in the U.S. Incubus released their first greatest hits album Monuments and Melodies in June 2009, accompanied by a tour of the United States, Japan and Canada. The band's most recent album, 8, was released on April 21st, 2017.
2. A death/thrash metal band from Metairie, Louisiana. The band was made up of Francis Howard (guitar/vocals), Moyses Howard (drums), Andre Luiz (bass), and Luiz Carlos (guitar). The two Howard brothers are actually from Brazil, and immigrated to Louisiana. This Incubus has released one demo, and two albums, with one album being remastered and re-released with a different track listing. This band has changed their name to Opprobrium.
3. A death/thrash metal band from Georgia who released one demo in 1987. The drummer, Mike Browning, went on to Morbid Angel and later Nocturnus fame.
4. A thrash metal band from São Paulo, Brazil that released 2 demos in 1986 and 1988.
5. A thrash metal band from João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil.
6. A New Wave of British Heavy Metal band that released a full-length album "To the Devil a Daughter" in 1984. Still a favorite among NWOBHM fans.
7. A death/thrash metal band from Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Released a demo "Sinful Dreams" in 1987. Changed their name to Spectral Birth in 1988.
8. A Techno/Rave combo.

Incubus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When everyone is in
Are you in?
Its so much better
When everyone is in
Are you in?
Oh oh
Are you in?
Are you in?
Its so much better
When everyone is in
Are you in?
Its so much easier
When sea foam green is in fashion
You you oh
Are you in?
You oh oh oh
Are you in?
Are you are you are you are you are you are you are
You are you are you are you are you are you are
You are you are you are you are you are you
(everybody everybody in)
(oh oh oh)
You ooh
Are you in?
You ooh
Oh
The lyrics of Incubus's "Are You In?" suggest that things are much better when everyone is participating and on the same page. The first line of the song, "It's so much better when everyone is in," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The repetition of "Are you in?" throughout the song is a call to action for the listener to join in and be a part of the group.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of conformity and fitting in with the crowd. The line "It's so much easier when seafoam green is in fashion" implies that following trends and popular culture can make life simpler and more enjoyable. The song seems to suggest that being part of a group and conforming to the social norm can make life better.
Overall, the lyrics can be seen as both uplifting and somewhat eerie. While it's great to be a part of a group and feel a sense of belonging, there is also a sense of conformity and the danger of losing individuality. The repetition of the phrase "Are you in?" throughout the song creates a sense of urgency and a call to action that makes the listener feel like they should be part of the group.
