Jul 11, 2011Overall, If Not Now, When? is the sound of Incubus coming of age. It's not particularly experimental nor is it completely straightforward but it is concise and a risk that's paid off.
-
Jun 30, 2011It's a worthwhile reinvention, but a little more noise wouldn't have hurt, either.
-
Dec 6, 2011The end result is an album on a shaded, comfortable grayscale, music that's suitably mature yet sidesteps stultifying notions of middlebrow class.
-
Jul 5, 2011If Not Now, When? is frustrating in many ways, chiefly because it feels like a step in the wrong direction for a band that can still pen enthralling tunes.
-
Jul 14, 2011Incubus retain some of their early, macabre nerdiness (the harmony-bedecked "Tomorrow's Food" reminds us of our dirt-bound mortality), but, for all the energy, the melodies fail to ignite.
-
Jul 28, 2011They're no longer teetering on the edge anymore; with this record, Boyd and Co. just fell hard.
-
Jul 15, 2011It seems as though the band has completely forgotten to keep up with music in the years they've been off, instead producing some of the most banal songs by any rock band in recent memory.
