Make Yourself

Make Yourself is the third album by the alternative rock band Incubus, released by Sony on October 26, 1999. Make Yourself hit Gold status in April of 2000, a success which can be attributed to the success of the first single, Pardon Me. Six months later, on October 5th, the album went Platinum and in less than a year, by July 2001, that sales figure had doubled.

The Stellar single was released in 2000. Drive was released as a single on January 15 2001, and managed to climb to the top of the Modern Rock Charts.

To most fans, Make Yourself represents a significant shift in the band's sound, with higher-quality production sounds and a more mellow tone to it than its precursor, S.C.I.E.N.C.E. Vocalist Brandon Boyd's lyrics matured, rendering a polemic for fierce self-creation. In some ways Make Yourself acted as a preview of Morning View, the popular album that was to follow.

It was re-released as a special edition with an extra CD featuring six live and acoustic tracks. There was also a tour edition released, with a second CD containing three acoustic tracks and one live track.

This is also the first CD Incubus recorded with new turntablist Chris Kilmore, who replaced DJ Lyfe.
