Synopsis

Amazon.com
Though Morning View follows hot on the heels of Incubus's breakthrough single, "Drive," it doesn't feel rushed. After all, their previous album, Make Yourself, was released nearly two years ago. Like fellow Los Angeles metal pioneers System of a Down, Incubus find themselves lumped in with the nu-metal fraternity merely because they're young(ish), angry, and very loud. That's more than a little unfair, because their sound owes more to the clever and creative funk-metal of Faith No More and the Red Hot Chili Peppers than the faux-rap posturing of Limp Bizkit. In fact, songs like "Nice to Know You," "Circles," and the excellent "Blood on the Ground" display real maturity. But that's not all that sets Incubus apart: on "I Wish You Were Here," "Just a Phase," "11 a.m.," and "Mexico," they show an uncharacteristic willingness to tread softly, using acoustic guitars and touches of strings to make less noise, but more impact. Some could call it selling out, but it sounds more like growing up. Morning View is a leap forward for a band that continues to get better with each release. --Robert Burrow

Worth every single penny

"I bought the first release of Morning View as soon as it came out knowing I would like it and to my surprise, I liked it even more. I had the cd for almost a year and I haven't reviewed it but I will later. As for this limited release you may think why should I buy this when I already have the cd, well the cd is limited so you might not want it now but you will want it later. The DVD has 3 features on it:(1)The video for "Are you in?"
(2)Behind the scenes of the tour thats about 17 minutes long
(3)A discography of all the dvds releasedThis limited release also has the only feature (the key) to unlock the never-before-seen nighttime version of "Are you in" video. So should you buy it? I did."
Great CD content, average DVD

"Hello:It is not a mistery that Incubus' Morning View is an exellent piece of work, such as Make Yourself or S.C.I.E.N.C.E, still innovative and creative. Their music has evolved to better rythms and lyrics, and they still have a great variety of styles to play, not just common rock. Take, for example, the difference in style between Just a Phase and Have you Ever.
The DVD is very limited. It includes the video of Are You In and a backstage that finishes with a live presentation of "Warning". It also includes the discography of DVD's."
Worth Buying CD Twice

"I totally thought that it was worth buying the morning view cd for the 2nd time just to get the bonus dvd. Hey a hard core Incubus fan has to do what they have to do. I had to make sure that I could keep my collection complete to date. So I love the dvd..it's funny as hell, and I totally luv it! INCUBUS I LUV YA!!"
