Aug 8, 2019This album played a huge part of a significant transitional period in my life. It's so beautiful, chilled and easy to listen to. The rock songs aren't as strong as Make Yourself, but it's still a good mix of rock and pop. Must listen.

Feb 21, 2015A seriously good album from a seriously good band. Incubus is currently one of the best rock bands in terms of musical quality and this album proves that. Never get sick of Morning View...

May 8, 2012Incubus always felt different to the other bands , in way that can be compared to the hyped Linking Park ( that somehow changed their genre in a uncomfortable way ) . Morning View is the perfect album that distinguish the bands style and that it makes it proud of the early 2000's era well remembered.

Feb 12, 2011definitely the best Incubus album to date, it has something for everyone every song on the album is a good one but Just a Phase is My favorite song they've ever done
-
JeffM.Mar 10, 2008This CD comprises a little bit of every facet of rock from the hard rocking Under my Umbrella and Nice to Know You to the chill 11 am and Are You In. Every song is good and this is by far their best overall album.

KyleFNov 29, 2006I have never been high and I think that Incubus is probably the greatest popular band of this era. Critics don't like Incubus because they are either too old or too uptight to enjoy music with any link to metal. P.S. If anyone cares what Rolling Stone magazine thinks, they have never played an instrument or mattered (with slight exaggeration attached).

KylefromUNCApr 19, 2005One of my favorite albums. Critics may not appreciate it, but through this album you get to know Incubus, you can feel the bonds of the band. It's a mix, but mostly soft and natural. Play it on a cool summer evening and watch the magic.

SamHJan 17, 2005This album gives you a taste of the bands louder notes, and also gives you amazing, slow sung, relaxing songs. What makes me the happiest is that this band is a lyrical genious, and thats evident in eveery song.

BenApr 21, 2004Come on guys, don't downrate so much. It's nowhere near as good as their older stuff (S.C.I.E.N.C.E., Make Yourself), but it's still Inubus and it's still good. It's a lot mellower (on the whole), but if you're into that, than it's a really good album.

BenKNov 5, 2003Songs like 11am have unbelieveable melodies. production quality is awsome throughout. Their sound has really changed as they've matured. Although the performances are less technicle than in their previous albums they make great easy to listen to rock. two thumbs up

FabioC.Aug 26, 2002great music from a band that has turned into a great band. forget those distorsion and screaming voice-added. this is music

MichaelE.Aug 17, 2002I used to love Incubus. Then they got popular, cut their hair, and began making albums like this. And so I was forced to sell all their records and cut off another link to my youth. Bastards.

AndrewF.Feb 17, 2002A great blend of both really good rock songs, right down to a mellow ballad, this CD rocks, go out and buy it!

MBaileyJan 2, 2002Excellent album. What made it bad was the odd hard rock track and the mix of beats.

NickYDec 17, 2001This is a great album. Varied and interesting with great melodies. Its also nice to hear a rock album without the tedious rapping that afflicts too many bands these days.

Æ.Nov 20, 2001music made for MTV and modern rock radio. Lifeless and dull drivel. 14 year-old teeny-boppers would realy like this.

ShawnH.Nov 1, 2001i love this album , i think its close to being their best. If you like every single side of Make yourself , youll love Morning View. It dont have the hardcore funk and rap attacks as the past albums , but the group has grown up alot and really shown some awesome riffs and great lyrics in this new album . you have to get this cd !

Q MagazineEven at their most acerbic or delicately downplayed extremes, Incubus are compelling. [#184, p.137]
-
Inevitably, all the shifts in tempo, mood and lyrical slant ultimately hurt Morning View more than they help.
-
Their movement toward non-nooky maturity continues here with tunes like the melodic and soaring "Wish You Were Here" and the dramatic "Warning"--each showing a more reflective and poetic side than before.
