Incubus

Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd opens up his iTunes and gives us a look at what he’s spinning…

A Taste:

And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead, Beirut, Jeff Buckley, PJ Harvey

“Eclectic” doesn’t even begin to describe Incubus. The SoCal alt rock luminaries still crank out a catchy combination of hard rock and funk with a whole lot of soul. Since S.C.I.E.N.C.E., Incubus have always surprised listeners.

So it makes sense that singer Brandon Boyd’s playlist is all over the map. He opened up his iTunes for us and gave us an exclusive look at what rocks his world.

Check out Brandon’s playlist below and check out Incubus’ collection of rarities and B-Sides Monuments & Melodies on June 16!

Brandon Boyd’s Playlist:

Andy Samberg & The Lonely Island

Andy Samberg and his Lonely Island cohorts offer up their iTunes playlists to us in this exclusive feature

A Taste:

Andy Samberg of Saturday Night Live doesn’t rely strictly on the televised medium to make people laugh. His hilarious, musical digital shorts on SNL, such as the viral, white hip-hop romp “Lazy Sunday” from a few years back and the equally hysterical “Dick in a Box” jam with Justin Timberlake spurned he and his writing cohorts to release an album under the moniker The Lonely Island. The Island even duets with T-Pain on their debut, Incredibad.

If that’s not enough, Samberg is also starring in the hilarious comedy, I Love You, Man, alongside Paul Rudd. In between all of their comic exploits, we chatted with Andy and Lonely Island about what rocks their worlds. Here’s what Samberg and his fellow Islanders (who are also SNL writers) are rocking in their iTunes.
