Linkin Park or Incubus

[Bob Schneider]

Who do you think is better overall? I'd go with Linkin Park but I'm a huge fan of both.

[LuvBones]

I'm a fan of both but not even a question, INCUBUS!!!!!!!!

[LuvBones]

Linkin Park recycles their songs and come out with mixes. With Incubus every album is a brand new album and they are very good at changing their sound.

[Johnny_Blaze_47]

I'm a fan of both, but I've been on a LP kick over the past week or so.

Hadn't heard "Faint" in a long time so I burned a new CD and have it in my truck to play between points of nothing on Sirius.

I'm also a big fan of Mike Shinoda, so I've always got Fort Minor nearby.

[tlongII]

I like Linkin Park a lot. I don't know if I would recognize any Incubus songs.

Same here, but i'm equally as big a fan of brandon boyd so this is a tough one for me. for the sake of the poll i'll vote for linkin park, but both bands kick major fucking ass.

When is Linkin Park going to put out a new CD. It's been a few years hasn't it?

Yesterday.

[cornbread]

Linkin Park can't touch Incubus in terms of talent or originality on any level.

[tlongII]

Yesterday.

You can tell I'm really tuned in to the current music scene! :lol

I haven't purchased it. I downloaded it a month or so ago and couldn't get into it too quickly, so I've shelved it for a while until I decide to give it a longer chance.

It's a departure from their past work (not as much rapping).

[CharlieMac]

Not a fan of Linkin Park.

As much as Incubus sucked in 01 to me, I really like them now.

[atxrocker]

2001 Poll


what? they're both still actively recording new music. so if a band has been around a while, they become irrelevant?

[mardigan]

Both bands suck balls. Incubus hasnt made anything good since S.C.I.E.N.C.E.

[cornbread]

They were more popular in 01'. What new songs does LP have out besides the sick ass Jay-Z mix that came out 2 years ago?
I just saw their new video on tv yesterday. I couldn't tell you the name of the song.

[spyder]

I just saw their new video on tv yesterday. I couldn't tell you the name of the song.
the new song is called "What I've Done" the album is called Minutes To Midnight

[midgetonadonkey]

They both completely suck balls.

[leemajors]

They both completely suck balls.

seconded.

[METALMiKE]

LP at the at&t Center Aug 3.http://www.projektrevolution.com/index.html

[dallaskd]

Not a big fan of either but ill go with LP

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

If you asked me before they made their last albums, I would've said Linkin Park. But the last album by Incubus is great, and I was really disappointed with Linkin Park's Minutes to Midnight. What I've Done has to be the lamest single that any famous rock band has put out in at least the last 5 years.

[dallaskd]

If Sum 41 goes under this genre i would vote for them. they got quite a few good songs.

if you count the pain for pleasure video, they have one good song.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Linkin Park is a contrived band that put out an incredibly popular best selling album, recycled the songs for their second album which dissapointed sales, now have released a new album that seems to pick up alot from the 'emo' crap that is popular now.

Incubus broke a few barriers and was like 2 or 3 years ahead of its time with 1997's S.C.I.E.N.C.E, which is a personal pick for one of the greatest albums of the late 90's, made a generic album which sold well in Make Yourself, then tried its hardest to come original each record (though in my opinion each record they release is not as good as the last).

Overall I say Incubus, simply because they released S.C.I.E.N.C.E and have multiple references to magic mushrooms in their early work.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Also it should be noted both bands have a DJ. However, DJ Lyfe was an amazing presence on SCIENCE, owing much to that record's sound. DJ Kilmore (incubus dj from make yourself to present) is pretty much a gimmick.

As for linkin park's DJ, he's decent i guess.

Also, Linkin Park's first two cd's rely heavily on the two easiest aspects of electric guitar: Power Chords and Natural Harmonics. Incubus seems to have more musician's skill than that. Not that they didn't follow that route: Make Yourself is full of that crap. But they have a 'been there done that' attitude which keeps them fresh to their fanbase.

[ObiwanGinobili]

I refuse to answer such a pussy poll.

i can count 6 or 7.

ooooooooooooooooooooo

Lyfe was the shit, they never recovered after they got rid of him. "I wonder why?"

:lmao

[ZStomp]

None of the above.

[midgetonadonkey]

I believe all three do fall within the genre of pussy rock.

[Mixability]

ok next

Dave Matthews Band or Hootie and the Blowfish?

[SequSpur]

How do you compare Incubus and Linkin Park? They are totally different.

[leemajors]

i did that that one incubus video where the lead singer was sketching was funny. he turned his 5 hair strand goatee into a full beard in his sketches.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Every rock band in the universe fails when compared to KoRn. The best rock-metal bands are KoRn, Metallica, Megadeth, and Marilyn Manson. As opposed to the rock similar to Linkin Park and Incubus, Underoath whoops their ass.

anyone who answered this question in a serious way is permanently disqualified from ever being a cool person.

....like asking, 'what's better cancer or AIDS?'

So you're saying I can't put the Pussyface Seal of Approval on my posts?

:dramaquee

[LaMarcus Bryant]

Usually people in San Marcos scoff at Incubus and LP and prefer Seether and Chevelle.

[T-Pain]

Who do you think is better overall? I'd go with Linkin Park but I'm a huge fan of both.
linkin park by a long shot. actually i would choose shinodas Fort Minor over both

The first Korn album is the only one worth listening to. They are now way too over produced.

[Viva Las Espuelas]

They both completely suck balls.PALABRA!!

[Viva Las Espuelas]

i thought the poll was for which band sucks more ass.

i also find it very disturbing that men over 25 like linkin park

[ObiwanGinobili]

I can't believe this thread is still going on... it should've ended at #31.

[LuvBones]

gtfo if you don't like either band then..

[tlongII]

Chevelle is excellent! :tu

1st album was the shit, Life Is Peachy wasnt bad either, but after that, forget about it.
