    Delain is probably my fave band, but I’ve only gotten the chance to see them once (I did get a picture with them though!) It was a hell of a show, with Xandria and Edge of Paradise. Great performances, and it was at a smaller venue so I got to be right up by the stage. It was so much fun.

    A bit weirdly, my second favorite Nightwish I’ve seen like four times. I’ve liked them since I was around fourteen though, so I guess maybe not that weird.

    I’ve seen a few bands, but only tagging along with friends, never seen anyone I actually like. Tbh I’m not a big fan of live music anyway. There’s something about it not being 100% the same as I’m used to that just makes me not like it as much.

    My fave artist, Borusiade, is quite niche and arguably their style of music had it’s peak in the electronic scene around 2017-21 so it’ll be a long shot to see them now sadly.

        Oh, buckle up!

        All of the newer stuff sucks (post 2009, specially the Morning View album remake), but the whole of the original Morning View album is phenomenal.

        Incubus is a band that has changed their sound distinctively throughout the years. If you want to experience that, here’s what I recommend:

        Album: S.C.I.E.N.C.E. Motif: A fusion of metal, rock, and funk. Raw sound that focuses more on zany immature lyrics and excellent vocal talent. Just a lot of fun to play on full blast in the car. Recommended songs:

        • Deep Inside
        • A Certain Shade of Green
        • Vitamin
        • Summer Romance (Anti-gravity Love Song)

        Album: Make Yourself Motif: A movement away from focusing on drug use and sex and more about self discovery and the joy of independent thought. The band really matures into alt rock at this stage. They still have some signs of funk, but the band begins to show the first signs of their more relaxed vibe that would permeate Morning View. Recommended Songs:

        • Drive
        • Make Yourself
        • Pardon Me
        • Nowhere Fast
        • Stellar

        Album: Morning View Motif: Keeping their alt rock roots, the band shifts into a more relaxed sound in the latter songs of the album. The band has stated that this was their favorite album to record and it shows. This is the album that defined a lot of my life outlook as a teenager. Recommended Songs:

        • Nice To Know You
        • Circles
        • Warning
        • Are You In?
        • Aqueous Transmission

        Album: A Crow Left Of The Murder Motif: Guitarist Mike Einziger’s most refined sound. The band ditches most of the chill vibes for a more angsty tone. There’s a lot of cultural commentary in this album. That said, it’s here that the band starts to fade from glory a bit. Recommended Songs:

        • Sick Sad Little World
        • Talk Shows on Mute
        • Megalomaniac
        • Made For TV Movie
        • A Crow Left of the Murder

        If you’ve made it this far, I recommend checking out Light Grenades, but that album really starts to lose the original raw spark that Make Yourself had.

        Enjoy Incubus!

            Hell yeah! Would love to know which albums you end up liking (if any).

            A list like this is how I got into Jimmy Eat World, so I’m happy to pass the stoke on for a band I truly love.

    Porter Robinson!! I’ve seen him uhhh at least 5 times live now? I love how every album of his is totally different, and his performances are always such a good vibe.
