In 2004, the band created their 2nd single called “Megalomaniac”. It reached #1 in the billboards for about 6 weeks. However, the song gained recognition and criticism by the U.S. government. It was then band from syndication in various media forums because it was assumed that the song was geared as an attack towards the former president, George W. Bush. Interestingly, due to the banning, it only created more fan-base and success for Incubus.

Why I like Incubus When I first heard Incubus, I was a musician and a singer. I immersed myself with all of Incubus's songs. I was especially infatuated with the lead singer, Brandon Boyd's singing voice. This admiration influenced me to develop my own singing style. I did try to add a little bit of Boyd's harmonized singing style into my own. This band's influence ultimately made me put Brandon Boyd as my #1 favorite Vocalist/Singer.
