Incubus earns its first No. 1 album on The Billboard 200 this week with the Epic set "Light Grenades," which moved 165,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan. The rock outfit's last set, 2004's "A Crow Left of the Murder," debuted at No. 2, though with a 332,000 start.
This is utterly awesome news, I'm glad that the band is finally getting some real recognition, and what better time than with a solid, accessible record. The singles should do well too, though I admit I was hoping that Anna Molly would do better (currently stuck at #2 on the Hot Modern Rock Tracks and curving off at #11 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks). The next single, Dig should do a lot better - speaking of which, the fan video competition for Dig officially started earlier this week. This should prove to be a very interesting competition indeed, I can't wait to see what people come up with.
