Incubus finish seventh album

Incubus have completed work on their seventh studio album.

According to a post on fansite Incubus-online-view.com, the band's manager Steve Rennie has said that their new album is finished.

In the post Rennie wrote: "Album number six is in the can. I picked up my copy of the record last night at Henson Studios [in Hollywood]."

He added that the new album is "nothing like its predecessors. Quintessential Incubus, but like no Incubus record before it."

The album is the band's first since 2006's 'Light Grenades'. It signals the end of a hiatus that saw singer Brandon Boyd release his solo album 'The Wild Trapeze' last year.

Incubus: 'Our new album is different to anything we've done before'

Incubus have confirmed that they have finished work on their new album - claiming it marks something of a stylistic about-turn for them.

The California rock troupe have not released a studio record since 2006's 'Light Grenades', and say the new effort is "nothing like" that album.

In a post on their official wesbite Enjoyincubus.com they stated: "The album is completed! True to the Incubus legacy, this record is nothing like its predecessor, but still maintains the quintessential Incubus vibe."

In an interview with Noisecreep.com singer Brandon Boyd shed some more light on the record.

"This new record is different from anything that we've done," he said. "It's like that next phase. We're gonna kind of challenge our fans with this one, but I'm excited about that. I think that's what needs to happen."

Boyd said that the album should come out in August or September. It will signal the end of the Incubus hiatus that saw singer Brandon Boyd release his solo album 'The Wild Trapeze' last year.
