We’re diving into Incubus’ 1999 breakout Make Yourself, one of the late 90s’ most thoughtful meditations on self-determination and what it means to be alive. Brandon Boyd’s lyrics grapple with questioning the privileges we take for granted, resisting systems designed to keep us compliant, and staying engaged when everything feels cold and empty. It’s a record that urges us to carve our own path and hold onto our humanity. Join us as we experience the warmth with Incubus.

We're rounding out the month of November with a brand new episode digging into Fleet Foxes' self-titled breakout full-length record. We discuss their musical DNA rooted in older folk traditions, hymnals, and lush harmonies, unlike the emerging corporate-hipster, crowd-coded "stomp clap hey" movement the band was often grouped with, which was budding up in the folk pop genre around that same time.
Tracklist:
Sun It Rises
Drops In The River
White Winter Hymnal / Ragged Wood
Quiet Houses
Blue Ridge Mountains

We blast off into the stratosphere with Hum's 1995 masterpiece You'd Prefer An Astronaut, the Champaign, Illinois band's sonic collision of shoegaze shimmer and bone-crushing sludge metal. While MTV latched onto "Stars," the album's real treasures lie in the deep space between those radio moments—massive, swirling guitar walls courtesy of Matt Talbott and Tim Lash that feel like entire galaxies collapsing in slow motion. This is the record that proved heavy music could be beautiful, and shoegaze could absolutely crush. Strap in for lift-off.

The Pod
