Incubus Guitarist Discusses Bands New Direction
19th February 2016Incubus guitarist Mike Einziger has recently spoken with Billboard about the bands next release among other things.
On the new album:
“We haven’t been recording so much as writing. We had a whole bunch of music put together and then we kind of pushed it to the side and said, “Let’s just go in a different direction and try new things.” So we’re in this great place where we’re feeling really creative and have a lot of new material. Whatever the album ends up being, it will be great because we have so many songs to work with.”
Einzinger was also asked when the album would see a release:
“The idea was to put something out before this summer and tour this summer but we didn’t want to force it. We really wanted to take our time and make the best music that we possibly could. We just didn’t want to repeat ourselves and get trapped in sort of a formulaic delivery system, which is easy to [fall into], especially when you’ve been doing this as long as we have. So we’ve just been exploring all kinds of different musical avenues. It’s been really enlightening and fun.”
