Incubus front man Brandon Boyd recently released his first solo album, “The Wild Trapeze.” The album serves as a perfect pedestal for Boyd’s powerful vocals.
In his Incubus work, he sounded just as good. There has never been such a thing as a bad Brandon Boyd song.
What makes “The Wild Trapeze” more appealing than albums like Morning View (a masterpiece) is that Boyd’s voice isn’t bogged down with shouting guitars and screaming drums. It’s like leaving an air-conditioned building and feeling your hands defrost in the heat.
