Incubus eye October release for new album Something in the Water
Incubus may release their new album, Something in the Water, in October.
Frontman Brandon Boyd has revealed the rock band are hoping to drop the follow-up to 2017's 8 in three months' time - and hinted they have much more music in them yet.
The band felt re-energised after recruiting bassist and singer, Nicole Row, who toured with Miley Cyrus in 2017 and Panic! at the Disco between 2018 and 2023.
He told People: "I definitely feel like it is a new era for us.
"For a number of reasons. Revisiting Morning View at the Hollywood Bowl initially was a terrifying challenge. We had never done it before. We played the bowl a handful of times, and it's always an amazing experience. It's kind of like our home game, so to speak."
He continued: "But then we did the show... and it was like, 'Oh, we did it.' That was going to be really hard. And it ended up being really fun, and it went by really fast."
Brandon explained: "Between the Morning View experience and Nicole, that was sort of the kickstart. It was sort of the end of the pandemic era, into now, it feels like our windshield got polished, and all of a sudden, it was like, oh, we have so much here.
"There's so much kind of in our history and our sort of burgeoning legacy, if you will. But there's also so much music in us that still has yet to see the light of day, and this is still so much fun."
The Drive rockers still have a "blast" together, even though the 49-year-old star admits, naturally, there are "scarier, darker parts of life that come creeping in".
He went on: "It's mostly fun still, even despite the scarier, darker parts of life that come creeping in no matter who you are, this thing that we do together is still a blast."
Teasing their next album, he said: "This new record, Something in the Water, we're going to call it. I don't know when it's going to come out, but we were thinking about putting out the whole record in October."
In April, projections featuring the album's title were shared along the River Thames and onto the band's Instagram account, showing footage from locations including the Houses of Parliament and the Tower of London.
Fans walking to their O2 gig from nearby North Greenwich station passed giant posters stuck to the ground featuring a QR code which, when scanned, took them to a pre-order link for the record.

Influencer announces own death in social media video
A popular US influencer has died after a difficult battle with cancer at the age of 30, just weeks after becoming a father. Martin pre-recorded a video before his death which his wife, Shay Wright, posted to his Instagram account on Wednesday. 'May the force be with you from our angel force ghost🤍' the video was captioned. Tragically, Martin gave his final farewell to his followers just 41 days after he and his wife welcomed their daughter, AmyLou. Martin started sharing his health updates with followers on social media after he was diagnosed with colorectal cancer five years ago and now has more than 450,000 followers on Instagram.

If you're watching this, I am dead,' he announces at the start of the video, then laughs at his own gallows humour. 'I had a heck of a life. I decided to make this video announcing my death because I saw someone did that, like, a year or so ago, and I think it's a good opportunity to get all your thoughts out.' Martin gave his final farewell to his followers just 41 days after he and his wife welcomed their daughter, AmyLou.

'Hopefully, I believe there's something after this. I'm excited to meet those people, and hopefully we're hanging out now and making fun of all you nerds,' he joked. His wife also shared a second video, an hour after the first, which revealed Martins 'last wish'. If you'd like to view this content, please adjust your . To find out more about how we use cookies, please see our Cookie Guide. In the video Martin can be seen visibly frail with his newborn daughter asleep beside him, reflecting that AmyLou would likely have no memories of him because of how young she would be when he died. He asked his followers to help his young family after his death by contributing to a GoFundMe page set up in their name which has already raised more than $450,000 of the $750,000 target. The young couple were aware of the serious nature of Martin's illness when they announced they were expecting their first child together in November last year.

But the pain soon grew, and he decided to see a doctor after he began having difficulty going to the bathroom as well. A colonoscopy soon discovered that he had stage 4 colorectal cancer, which had already spread to his liver by the time it was uncovered. By 2023, doctors determined that Tanner's cancer was no longer curable, and they estimated that he might live two to five more years.

West Coast superstar Harley Reid keeps The West Australian front and centre
West Coast star Harley Reid has kept a copy of The West Australian's front page — after he pulled the middle finger at a Brisbane fan — on his fridge. Reid took to Instagram to share his post-workout protein shake recipe as part of a sponsorship arrangement, but eagle-eyed viewers noticed the newspaper cut-out on the fridge behind him. On display in his kitchen is this newspaper's front page from March 24 with the headline 'Golden Eagle flips the bird' after the 20-year-old had a cheeky reply to a Brisbane Lions heckler in their round three clash. Reid was issued a please explain and fined $1000 by the AFL for his gesture, while Reid lit up social media after briefly changing his Instagram profile picture of Ben Cousins giving the one finger salute to a camera in his playing days. 'We try to bash the theatre out of this game sometimes, don't we?' Andrew McQualter said post-match. 'He's just having a bit of fun. Sometimes that's good for the game, I think.' It also prompted Puma to reveal him signing the longest-ever local athlete deal, with a cheeky social media video with two hands counting to six, bookended by two middle finger references. Reid has been on a number of front and back pages since being linked to the West Coast ahead of going as the number one pick in the 2023 draft, with his on-field performances only adding to the theatre. Last year, he picked out his depiction of the Boss Baby from the 2017 film as his favourite artwork and even made his back page with declaring 'I lover Perth' in a fun moment at last year's Brownlow.
