What do you get when Josue revisits one of his most beloved albums—and Jeff hears it for the first time? A whole lot of crunchy guitars, sitars, phasers… and frogs. That’s right: we’re talking about Morning View by Incubus.

In this episode, we break down the layered sounds, angsty vocals, and deeply personal memories wrapped up in this early-2000s alt-rock time capsule. Josue brings the backstory, memorabilia, and genuine love for the band’s evolving sound—while Jeff wrestles with his first impressions of Brandon Boyd’s vocals... and tries to figure out why frogs close the album.

Also in this episode:

• 🎸 From funk-metal to dream rock: Incubus’ genre-blending evolution

• 🐸 Album endings that include... a full minute of frogs?!
• 🎧 DIY production vibes & how this album shaped Josue’s early gear habits
• 🧠 Mourning View: grief, nostalgia & Josue’s musical connection to his late brother
